First Ipod DJs, now Iphone DJs

There is a new 3rd party application where people can “scratch like a DJ” on their Iphone. Scared of the new generation of Ipod DJs. Alex… I’ll be mad if you download it. Go to Nerds With Swag for the full read on this product. They are one of my fav blogs because of their hip-hop slant on technology. And I am glad they are back in full posting mode!

HoneyShed.com…nuff said.

HoneyShed.com is your new favorite way to shop, period. One part sketch comedy show, one part home shopping network. With a cast of great looking ladies and a couple of funny dudes, HoneyShed keeps you in the loop with every new item in fashion, tech, movies, and more. The site defaults to a live feed, but take a second to try out a channel or two, i.e Kicks and Lids, Girls Fashion, or Fun Stuff. A little something for everyone. Best of all, it’s totally entertaining and free.

Represent, Represent


Vote. If you can today, you should. I got my sticker already. And if you don’t have enough celebrity endorsements for Obama from the video, then believe Questo. For my Cali people, find your polling place here. P.S. stop bothering OBEY for the Obama “PROGRESS” prints. They have no more. So I heard…

**Update: Blind I has a dope post about Q-Tip’s thoughts on Barack and Davey D gives his insight to the election. Must reads.
