Just like everything in life, things CHANGE, for better, for worse and for unknowns. I'd like to share a little bit of technology news, along with some already known news, and some surprising news.
- Tech news: Conde Naste (the publishing company), is finally jumping on board with the decline in printed news stand sales and directing their efforts towards iPhone apps where they will have all of their magazines available to subscribers to view from their phones for a small monthly charge (about $2.99 a month). Although this would cut some employees from their current positions, it would in turn employ others that are working in the technical side of the industry with these new changes. This is good news in some ways (less cutting down trees for paper distribution) hurray ENVIRONMENT!!!! But, annoying since more people will be on their phones focused, oblivious to their surroundings and will probably need some other type of glasses from hurting their eyes looking at the tiny font on their phones. But, this does show how the printing industry is looking at other options to still stay on the scene and not die out. Very smart.
- Balloon Boy: This sounds like a sad reality TV show that Bravo would be more than happy to produce in the future. So this whole fake kid in a balloon stunt....shows how sad of a society we live in is (considering all that's happening around the world that HAS killed people etc.), for some reason our society seems to be fixated on this whole crazy family with bad parenting skills. SO WHAT, isn't that the culture that we've created with the TV programming that we get to pick from? A reality TV show escape of realism and drama? This "father" IS getting the reality TV show he wanted to get (even though he's not getting paid); but his exposure is coming from having every "major" news team on site to tape his every move. WHO CARES!?!?!!? Apparently these news sources WANT us to care, but I certainly don't. I don't even know the whole story, all I know is that there are still folks out there that confirm the term "CRAZY" and nothing can change them from being that way, that's just who they are, this is one of those cases. End of story. Federal Offense, FINE, give him the charges and move on people, it's not THAT interesting anyways.
- Scarlett Johansson: She can sing!!!!! for the love of God, I can't believe that this girl actually has a unique singing quality to her voice. Now I KNOW that there are A LOT of haters out there of her (I'm suprisingly NOT a hater of her), but she really kinda DOES have it all in the palm of her hands. Check out her song with Pete Yorn (it's catchy so be prepared). RELATOR
Take it LIGHT,
