Nice explanation of the Credit Crunch
I brought this interesting video to your attention a while ago. The following two videos explain pretty while how this situation, the credit crisis, came to be.
The next president of the United States
In two days time it will finally happen. The new Messiah will be officially inaugurated. Callie Shell followed Barack Obama for much of the years running up to his presidency and captured some excellent photographs (along with a few anecdotes). Keep clicking Show More Images at the bottom to see them all.
Recession? Let’s spend!
I was digging through some old bookmarks and came across this British Royal Mint’s page and the winning design for the new GBP.
It was a while back when I saw the design originally and am wondering whether these new coins have actually already gone into circulation? With the British economy in a slight slum it might induce the Brits to increase their spending. I’m actually thinking about helping them a little, with exchange rate being very favourable at the moment and all. Not to mention the fact that it’s been absolutely ages since I went to the UK.
Who’s my new bicycle?
Apparently, Mr Obama is. And not only that, he also sang me a happy birthday song on my voicemail. WTF?!
Tour de France
Follow the Tour live via Google Maps. Last year this was a cool page to visit during the Tour and it seems that it is working this year as well.
