As the earth keeps spinning, our lives keep evolving, our spam e-mails keep growing, we never stop to see the implications of it all. This YouTube video encompasses the many aspects of our daily lives that can’t be quantified in our minds because frankly, it is evolving way too fast. Check out the numbers, the technology and the things you don’t know about our world -or do you?

Jay-Z ended July ‘09 by rapping and rocking out at All Points West in Jersey City.

He represented Brooklyn by covering Beastie Boys No Sleep Till Brooklyn and followed it up with HOVA Brooklyn (We Go Hard). Were you there for it?

History repeats itself, that’s for sure. Music is a perfect example. Ever notice why a new song is so easily catchy? Maybe it’s because you’ve already heard it in the past. Who would have thought worldwide classics could be so ripped off. Are these songs “influenced” or just flat out plagiarized?

From the creators of Rock Band. Talking about a revolution. Here is the trailer to what will be the upcoming Beatles Video Game.

“Often what separates entrepreneurs who make it from those who don’t is a sense of personal passion and purpose. We tend to see characteristics like drive, tenacity, passion and creativity. They tie together into the ability and willingness to do whatever it takes to make the venture successful.”

We would like to give a big THANKS to our good friends at Uncle Magazine  for helping us get hammered the right way!

Friday night at Public Assembly, formally known as Galapagos, (we all remember Cut & Sewn’s epic Everyone Wants a Piece Party) brought good vibes, good people and excellent exclusive reading material.

Sponsored by New Rome, the night kicked off right with mix-masters Indian Giver. There wasn’t a single booty in the crowd that wasn’t shaking. Using a Girl-Talk minded mix, they spun their own original flavor with a very energetic guitarist, drummer and singer. Singing along with Bono takes cajones. Here’s a video quicky if you’re curious and feel free to download their sweet album, Taking It All Back: The Mixtape Album.

Closing the night was DJ Swaaan. He rocked the house, we danced until bedtime aka when our motor skills began to shut down.

So why were we there anyway? To celebrate Uncle Magazine’s launch of Issue II . To read it in full, click here.
In only a matter of days will you be able to get your hands on a hard copy. We assume you don’t want to have to look long for it, so here’s an answer to the savenger hunt.

If that’s not enough for you, put on Indian Giver’s Mixtape, load up the photo album of the night, and let the slideshow begin.

I met Janine Martel, the creator of Thumbook a few months ago. Not knowing if this was an undercover scheme, Janine pulled out a set of different colored stamp pads, asked me to smudge my thumb into the color of my choice, press it onto a page of her teeny tiny book, and draw a self portrait with her matching colored markers. As if my finger print couldn’t be more of a self-identifier, she had me write a quote or philosophy that I live by on the opposite page (see below).

In a continued tale of construction signs being hacked comes an incredible one. This one tweaks my heart strings of my childhood. Looking for the Princess before she even had a proper name was a big task I only completed a few times. (Geekadelphia)

Survival of the fittest? They all survived, but who won?

Have you ever walked to your expedia.com provided low-fare seat in 36E (Middle row, back of the aircraft) while passing the first class passengers? Isn’t it painful to see them already passing out from their pre-departure martini and provided pillow?
