Die, Music Labels. Just Die.
via TechCrunch by Michael Arrington on March 28, 2008
Musicians themselves may just be crazy, but the music labels are dangerously stupid and need to die before they can do any further damage to the music industry. Case in point: Warner Music, fully aware that the days of charging for recorded music are coming to an end, is now pushing for a music tax. This isn’t the first time someone has called for a music tax. Peter Jenner argued for it in...

A dumb branding strategy
via Seth's Blog by Seth Godin on March 27, 2008
Jewelry Central is a really bad brand name. So are Party Land, Computer World, Modem Village, House of Socks and Toupee Town. It's a bad brand name because Central or Land or World are meaningless. They add absolutely no value to your story, they mean nothing and they are interchangeable. "Here honey, I bought you these cheap earrings at Diamond World!" Not only are they bland, but you...

DIY Education: Teach Yourself
via Lifehack.org by Thursday Bram on March 27, 2008
Education is touted as the greatest way to get ahead in this world. And, in general, it’s a great strategy. Maybe you have the perfect idea for an invention and you need a little engineering know-how, or maybe you just need to get ahead of the guy in the next cubicle over. No matter what plan you have for getting ahead, odds are a little learning will help. The problem, as I see it, is that...

relational hierarchy
via The “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks by bethany on March 26, 2008
I've gotten similar cards to this (or maybe the same one) before. This one is from Liz, the other submitter who I forget her name got it form a mother-in-law. It must be like a passive aggressive way of saying, "just because you married my son doesn't make you REAL family."

The dark side
via Seth's Blog by Seth Godin on March 27, 2008
Snapnames informs me that the most competitive domain name up for auction this week is breastenlargementhypnosis.com. Think about that one for a bit. So much effort is going to be spent building this business. Money and time invested in design and promotion and, possibly, hypnosis. Why? To trick people. I'm amazed every single day at the lengths some people will go to in order to run scams...

The Leniency of Excommunication
via Desiring God Blog by (author unknown) on March 27, 2008
(Author: John Piper)The worst discipline that the church is authorized to render toward it's worst offender is excommunication. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. (Matthew 18:17)This means he is not welcome to be a member of the church, nor to partake of the Lord's supper. It means that Christians love him, not as a...

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE - WRONG OR RIGHT?
via RedBlueChristian by Jim Parsons on March 26, 2008
Should we as Christians pledge our allegiance to anything but Christ? This is a question that popped into my head when the person in charge of Vacation Bible School (VBS) stated that they will start every day with a pledge of allegiance to the American Flag, Christian Flag and then the Bible. This happens a tons of VBSs all over the US but it got me thinking, who are they pledging their...
