Nuttin' But Pimp

Wow! When I first read that Radiohead had decided to allow fans to pay what they want for their new album I thought how innovative, and fresh! It turns out I was not alone in my thinking! According to the BBC both Ian Brown and Johnny Marr agree that this is a fantastic idea. Here is a snippet:

Radiohead's plan to let fans choose how much to pay for their new album has won support from two British indie legends.

Fans can name their price, from £0-100, and download In Rainbows on Wednesday.

Former Stone Roses singer Ian Brown said it was a "fantastic idea", adding: "Anything that can break the music industry up, I'm supporting it."

Ex-Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr praised their trust in human nature. He said: "We'll see if their good faith is going to be rewarded. I think it will work."

I had the opportunity to visit SpotLoans.co.uk this afternoon, and check out the services that are being offered through this particular financial product website. I am going to take a few minutes today to introduce you to the site, which I found to be a good online resource for those seeking a lender in the United Kingdom.

Firstly, the webmaster did a good job in putting together the SpotLoans.co.uk site in my own humble opinion. Obviously I base this on being a web surfer, and not a web designer, but in many ways I do believe the opinion of the end user (like myself) is the most important. I was impressed with how easy the site was to navigate, and use.

Aside from being a website with which a consumer can apply for, and receive free quotes there are also numerous articles. The entries range in subjects from debt consolidation, home loan, and mortgage advice, and secured loans to name just three. The info presented is not only fresh, but the few articles I did read were indeed informative in my opinion.

If you are looking for a quote, or would just like some further detail then please do click on the SpotLoans.co.uk link, and check this UK loan resource out.

Cheers!

I love it!!! And I bet Honest Ed Mirvish would have approved as well!

Not only is Jones Pop tasty, I think this is a very cool way to immortalise the man, and his iconic store!

Here is a snippet from the CBC:

Seattle-based Jones Soda has brewed up a tribute to the late businessman and theatre impresario Ed Mirvish with a limited-edition run of cream soda released this month featuring a portrait of the beloved Torontonian.

Lisa Giroux, Jones Soda regional manager, said Russell Lazar — the general manager of the discount bargain shop Honest Ed's in Toronto — gave the soda company the green light to proceed.

"We chose to feature Ed Mirvish because he was such an icon in Canadian entertainment and Honest Ed's has been a loyal customer to Jones Soda for quite some time," Giroux said.

A total of 5,000 cases have been produced for distribution in Ontario.

Good afternoon my peeps! I have had the opportunity to spend some quality time checking out the Endowment Express website during the last couple of hours, and I thought I would give you some of my thoughts and impressions on the site itself, and the service that this particular company is offering based on what I have read there today.

United Kingdom Endowments policies can be sold through Endowment Express, and their website gives further details, and information on how they work. The website itself is fairly easy to use in my opinion. You basically fill in an online form that they provide, and once done they will give you a free quote. If the quote is acceptable to you then great, if not then you are under no obligation.

Selling endowment policies has become a big business in the United Kingdom over the last few years according to a fairly recent article put out by the BBC. There are pitfalls that should be avoided if possible, and that is why a good online resource on the topic, such as I personally found Endowment Express to be, is so important to the potential seller.

Visit the Endowment Express website for more info, and be sure to read through their about us, and FAQ pages.

Cheers!

Most of my peeps are probably already familiar with Chris Crocker's Britney Love vid above. Today, Britney Spears has spoken out against it according to USMagazine.com stating that she found the video "insulting."

Britney is definitely not amused at what she believes is a cheap grab at fame by her #1 fan. The exact quote from US Magazine is:

"She thinks he's creepy and that all his videos are an obvious attempt at fame. She finds it insulting and difficult to watch."

You would think she'd be happy for anything that seemed remotely supportive these days, but to each their own.

Cheers!

Good morning my peeps! I had the opportunity to check out the The Godfrey Group website earlier on this morning. They provide a pretty funky looking Pop Up Display that I wanted to have a look at along with other types of trade show booths, and displays.

I have to admit though that it was the Pop Up Display that really caught my own fancy because of the fact that it is quite eye-catching, and that is something in my own experience you definitely want when you are literally in the midst of a sea of competitors.

Have a look by clicking on the photo or links above.
