Discover Our Music.com
DiscoverOurMusic.com is the site I co-own with my buddy Kristine. The whole project was her idea, and I've produced the HTML, codebehind and SQL code. Kristine did help me a lot with the new version's SQL code though - because yes, there is a new version that's coming out pretty soon.
The template ain't crap anymore. We added some google ads, we have an artist page, a classifieds section, a flash music player on the artist's page (instead of a Windows Media Player pop-up) - and we hope to have everything up and running by next week.
If you're a music artist, why choose us instead of MySpace? The answer's simple - because MySpace ain't specialised in Music. MySpace is a networking site - huge - around 105 million users - and it can't be compared to a community anymore. You'll be placing your music on MySpace but you will still have to compete against all the non-music content that people are submitting over there, i.e. pictures, movies, blog entries and personal information. Finding your music would be similar to finding something on the net.
We're a site which focuses on the music - people looking for music will come to our site to listen to you. That is why we're better, and that is what we're going to prove very soon.

80th Post
Poverty is an amazing thing. It slowly slides under you, like a knowing shark lurks beneath a surfer's board. You don't realise in how much shit you are until the jaws of this by-product of our capitalistic society have finally closed upon you: you're done for, without a cent to spend. You won't get access to cigarettes, and you will have to resort to a week-long diet of instant noodles. And maybe tuna fish on good days.
A poor me is writing and posting this 80th post, convinced that trying to summon any form of inspiration inside of me will only bring out farts.

A Test Post
This is a test post. People usually do test posts the day they create their blogs, but I felt that creating a test entry on my 79th post was something pretty neat to do.
Actually, I'm showing one of my buddies how you can create posts on blogger.com. It seems she recently got all crazy about blogs, and is thinking of offering blogs to the whole world.

A Post Made Of Nothing
The internet is being flooded with new content: news, videos, stories, music... How can I ever contribute something original to this massive flood of information, this monstruous tsunami of zeros and ones? A blog post would be comparable to a drop of water falling in a lake in the blogsphere. It would never make a difference on the internet.
After a desperate search for originality, an amazing idea hit me: Yes, I will write about nothing. If the internet has everything, I'll give it nothing. Some of my readers might be reassured to hear that for once, I'm sparing them some of my desperate pseudo-romantic short-lived love affairs or the beach-bum related news of Flic-En-Flac; but be prepared, because there's a lot I want to say about nothing.
Nothing, I believe, is my greatest talent. It is the common denominator of all my blog posts and the very foundation behind my ideas and motives. Even if I have no whatsoever affiliation with Freddy (also known as Friedrich Nietzsche), I sincerely recognise and applaud the Nihilist school of thought. Our existence has no particular purpose and goal. We are therefore the children of the Nothing.
There is no conclusion to this article, because it might become something if I add one. There will be no memory of it once I've posted it (doublethink is closely related to nothing, I believe) and hopefully, it will truly become something close to nothing the day Dumbie (also known as George Bush) accidentally presses the "Fire" button on the nuke control instead of the one on his XBox and blasts out Mountain View, effectively destroying Google and all related services such as Blogger.com where my blog is hosted.
