It’s a long way to the top If you want to rock and roll.

Well that lasted… what? All of 3 weeks?
After I spent the last week calling all my old mates from high school (okay, two of them) cajoling them into coming to the US with me in June to see VAN HALEN on tour, it looks like that, not only is the tour off, but the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame performance might be off.
Okay. Back to your regularly scheduled boring life. The one reason to live this year has just been canceled. Mediocrity shall reign another year.
Want to increase your Gmail storage to 10Gb? Want to get rid of text ads beside your email?
Then you might want to check out Google Apps Premier Edition! This is very cool. My Gmail account is almost full and I’ve been listening to Jason Calacanis bitch for months about how he wants more Gmail storage and I thought I was going to have the same problem. Not any more!
Okay, so this probably won’t be a challenge to Microsoft’s dominance of the VERY LARGE enterprises for a while, but that’s not the battleground. Small and Medium business is a much bigger market for these product than the big end of town. I remember from my MSFT days that the big revenue growth was expected to come out of SME. Now they have some serious competition.

When I read Miriam’s post about shaving her head for leukemia, it dawned on me – Britney hasn’t gone mad – she’s just a sweet, down-home country girl with a heart of gold who wants to raise money for those poor people suffering from leukemia. And if Miriam can raise a couple of hundred bucks by shaving her head, imagine how much Britney will raise?
Of course, the infamous no-panties exercise a couple of months ago now makes complete sense. It was just a trial run. She probably raised $500k for the cause by shaving her taco and, in order to prove that she had actually done it, she kindly asked some photographers to be at hand when she got out of Paris’ wheels to record the event. With the huge success of that venture, she’s now decided to go the whole hog and shave her noggin.
And the press is beating it up, making out that the poor girl is half a loaf short of a picnic. It’s just not fair. She’s just doing her bit. I wish more stars would shave their heads. And their tacos for that matter.
Three cheers for Britney!
The VERY fine folks at Apple (you know who you are) provided TPN with a WONDERFUL 2nd birthday present today by making us a “Featured Provider” on the iTunes UK homepage! As regular readers will know, we’ve been “Featured Providers” on the Aussie iTunes homepage for a while but I’d love to see us hold the same position in our other key markets (esp the UK and USA), so this is an awesome happening!
