The Greatest Sacrifice

If you are a musician, you would probably kill me for doing something back in 2004. I was in dire need of cash and I was also in dire need of a portable computer. Back then, a friend sold me a good quality second hand iBook G4, an 800MHz beauty with 2 years of warranty and 640MB of RAM. Built in Bluetooth, built in WiFi, custom made from Apple.

This decision was perhaps a huge turning point in my life, albeit I had not known it to be so at that point because I was young, restless and in need of something to feed my rising geekdom.

And thus, the title of this post, because I gave up something that I should not have sold in the first place.

1,000+ songs to listen to while blogging

I actually found this site courtesy of my dad who’s been obsessed with YouTube for the past several weeks. The site basically plays a selection from the top 100 songs people loved from 1955 to 1982.

As for copyright stuff, well, gee… I don’t know. Point is, it’s good music. What’s interesting to note is to listen to how our listening has evolved by listening to around five or six songs from each year. This is a social commentary of the worldwide pop culture in the last three decades. Pardon the site, it isn’t Web 2.0-ish at all. But then again, its all about the content, eh?

Listen on here. Hope the site loads for you. It is down sometimes (bandwidth issues?).

I just came from the launch of BURN Magazine at Cuisine, the Fort. Sitti was swinging with the bossa nova that night! Wow! I’ll be uploading pictures in the gallery soon. In the meantime, check out these pictures I took with my 50mm up close and personal.
