Alot of time on my hands

I've been doing alot of surfing the internet lately due to my new found unemployed and bored status. So I've decided to do something a bit constructive with my findings and blog em for the rest of yall... enjoy.

Been thinking about starting a business lately...
This site (SpringWise) is a monthly newsletter that profiles new interesting business ideas from around the world. Goes into reasons why these ideas might be striking. Def gets your mind going.

Finding NEW music you might like...
Tired of the same 5 songs on the radio? this site (Pandora.com) suggests songs you might like by creating a radio station for you based on 1) a song or artist you like and 2) the Music genome project (a project to analyze 10,000 artists and what makes their music tick).

• Cost:10 hrs of free play then 36$ per year. $36 is kind of steep IMO I'd pay around 20$,
  
• This thing is cool, has an awesome interface. Suggestions are pretty good. Lets you say "like it" "Dont like it" and then updates the station list.
  
• Typed in Kanye West > got "Get By" by Talib Kweli. > Created a station for that song and got
• Remind My Soul by Akrobatic
• Robbin Hood Theory by Gang Starr
• But also got some Ja Rule Ashanti shit too
  
• Limitations:
• Wish you could preview the songs coming in the suggestion list.
• Can only forward a certain number of songs every hour (due to some licensing crap)
• Have to buy songs from ITunes or amazon still.
