Sue-Point-Oh!

When I first brough my little iPod shuffle to the gym I thought it was the best thing to happen to working out since the oversized plastic abdominal exercise balls. However, all that has changed since I started downloading “Mash-Ups” to my iPod and listening to them while I run on the once onerous treadmill. “Mash-Ups” are songs that are created when a DJ mixes two song togethers like Jay Z’s “99 Problems” and the Beatle’s “Helter Skelter”. The songs are high energy and the constant variation between beats and lyrics helps get my workout energy and enthusiasm high.

Here are some of my favorite Mash Up DJs:

Party Ben

DJ Adrian - Hosts a monthly mash-up bootleg party!

There are also a couple mash-up podcasts that can be downloaded for free through the iTurnes Podcast Directory. These are just getting started so there aren’t that many episodes and they come out infrequently but they are still great:

Hope you have as much fun with these as I do!

I was noticing my mail friends check their gmail the other day and I saw that my male friends seemed to click on the subject heading of the email to open it while the females clicked on the name of the sender to open the mail. Could this be due to the fact that women are more people/relationship oriented while men are more fact/object oriented? Perhpas it’s time for Dr. John Gray to come up with a “Men are from Mars, Women are Venus, 2.0″ book.

Facebook just came up with a new features that allows you to create a customized “badge” to be inserted into a website or blog. This is similar to the FlickR badge and allows people to quickly access your facebook profile.

Here is my badge:
