The mash-up revolution

Combi-mixes, Mas-up’s, bastardpop: 2 songs mixed together.. Regarding some this was popular in the 80’s.
I can tell you: mixing was HOT and is Hot. The only problem is the music: House is not House anymore and Disco has become Trance. The 80’s revival is upraising.

So Mash-up Revolution? Bastard Pop? The problem is that they give it names we never heard before. What the hell is Old-Skool House if I still think: this is just ‘house’.. or a good song from the 80’s. Okay all those teenagers do not know better… Damn I getting old ..

Reading the Salon Article about the Mash-Up revolution we found some nice mixes: @ bastardpop.co.uk [enjoy or not]

my last entry of the JPL – Tone Loc Remix will fit perfectly in this concept

I’m not a DJ, but willing to produce ;-)

moblog

I’ve just created a simple moblog without having a mobilephone with camera :-)

And the best thing: it’s free! and with RSS !

It’s just sending images to an e-mail account.
Simple. Damn I wish this was possible with MT yet.

RSS Scraped Power: Jobs in your feedreader!

I read about RSSJOBS today and I was thinking: could I do this for Jobnews or Monsterboard here in Holland?
First I tried Jobnews, but I needed cookie support. This is not supported in Myheadlines yet. So it’s unscrapable.
Than I tried monsterboard. This resulted in 8 random feeds I choose. Just as example. If you want a specific category, you can mail me.

With my scraped feeds I only want to try or to attract the websites to add real RSS support to their site(s).

DanceParade Rotterdam

Last Year I was able to visit the Rotterdam DanceParade and took the first images with my digital cam. Damn I was not lucky this year. Other priorities came across our path.

I’m looking for kewl foto’s from the FFDP 2003. Anyone?

What we did in stead? We visited a ‘kitchen-shop’ for our new home cause we need a kitchen and after weeks of looking we took our first advise.
Damn that’s expensive stuff ! EUR 10.000 is nothing .. for a simple one.

NewsNow.uk: RSS feed at request! [KEYWORD RSS]

NewsNow.co.uk has more than 11.000 newssources. Even more than news.google.com

Enter a keyword and you get specified news. If you want to have a specific RSS feed from that keyword: mail me the keyword and I create a feed for you
(one word only !)

Some examples you can find here.

Ps. NewsNow has RSS only as extended feature for their subscribers.

:: update ::
AC is mentioning the Keyword RSS topic. Maybe cool new Idea feature for Mike (MyHeadlines creator) to create scraped feeds with keyword option. Cause the output is the same, so the scraper does not need to be altered only the URL.
