Every once in a while the Free Beer & Hot Wings show comes through with a song that gets stuck in your head for days on end. Today is no different as they unleashed this gem on all of us.
The worst thing about self-photos of a hot girl is the dang cell phone taking up half the shot. Nothing takes away from her hottest than a bedazzled phone case, or worse, a massive iPad blocking half her body.
Recently, two rare 1986 recordings from Radiohead’s early days surfaced online. The two songs — ‘Girl (in the Purple Dress)’ and ‘Everybody Knows’ — were recorded six years before the band’s full-length debut album ‘Pablo Honey’ was released.
Facebook may have changed the way we communicate, keep up with long lost friends and pretend that we're doing actual work in the office, but it has come at a great cost to privacy. Now the federal government is forcing the social networking giant to ask all 800 million of their users if they wish to “opt out” of certain settings and features that might expose some of their personal information to the entire world.
We applaud these efforts to ensure our privacy, and we think it should be taken even further. Facebook should not only make sure that our most sensitive information isn't exposed to the general public, but they should also ask us if we want to “opt out” of the most annoying causes of social networking headaches that have spread like some virtual flesh eating bacteria that cannot be stopped.
If you're a Verizon customer, you may have noticed or maybe not, the change in Verizon's privacy policy for using their service.

The New York Times R&D Lab is releasing info on a new mirror, dubbed "The Magic Mirror", that allows you to have access to the internet from your bathroom.

I don't know about you, but I talk funny with a toothbrush in my mouth.
In a study that anyone who works in an office will heartily embrace, researchers found that spending small parts of the day wasting time on the Internet makes workers more productive because it acts to mentally refresh them.
“Browsing the Internet serves an important restorative function,” concludes the report from the National University of Singapore.
It's called 'Movie Line Rhymes" and it is one of the coolest videos to hit the internet in a while. I can't even imagine how much time had to be dedicated to this fun project.
This month marked Internet Week in NYC, during which web comedian Alex Blagg of A Bajillion Hits introduced Plungr, a pretend (we hope) bathroom-based social media start-up. Plungr, says Blagg, will combine popular social networking sites to create an outlet for bathroom enthusiasts to express their passion for porcelain. That’s right, gone are the days when your friends are left out of cutting edge restroom experiences and the memories flushed away.
Plungr splashes onto the scene in Q5 of this year.
After finishing up school and starting a full-time job, I'm starting (or at least attempting) to keep track of my finances and set budget goals before I have to start paying off my student loans. This is where you insert the blood curdling scream
