Cage - Shoot Frank feat. Daryl Palumbo (of Head Automatica) This MTV Music site is cool for discovering videos that you didn’t know existed.  Is it okay to post a Cage video immediately after a Belle & Sebastian post?  Probably not.. I think the competing musical aesthetics inside of my head hate one another. WTF: It’s been reported that Shia LaBeouf seriously wants to be Cage in...

Interesting startup site: spokeo/hr →
Spokeo solves a simple but important problem for HR: tracking candidates profiles across the many social sites out there (it says it tracks 40+), given a specific e-mail address. Also a useful tool for job-seekers to see if they have any accounts out there still tied to their current e-mail.. like that digg account you haven’t touched in years
