The January 2011 EarJam playlist is now up with a great variety of new talent to check out!
We've developed a new iPhone application at Tattoo to get creatives a chance to hear some music they might not of heard. Our licensing department is constantly listening to new music on a daily basis. We decided we should share some of the best with you. A monthly list of new songs will be released, and any that are available on iTunes will be available for you to download.
You can find the application by clicking here. Or searching "earjam" on the application store.
No bigger than a credit card and as thick as a blister pack of chewing gum, the Card Speaker puts most every mp3 accessory to shame with its good looks and crisp fidelity. Designed by IDEA International, this little speaker is ideally suited for trips to the park, the beach, or anywhere you’d like to share a little music on the fly. It comes in either black or silver, with a mirror-polished back, and includes a protective carrying case, a 3.5 mm connection plug, and a USB battery charge cable. The speaker has an operating time of approximately five hours on a two-hour charge.
I'm often found in a place that is in dire need of music, but stuck with no speakers. I wonder how this bad boy sounds. It's on the Ghostly International store for $75.00 and I would trust anything that those guys rep.
Ever wondered what your babies will look like? But don't want to go through 9 months of waiting. Download the new iPhone application called iMated.
"Take a shot with the camera or pick one already on your phone, line up the faces and make ’em mate. You can even shake to generate new results.
Guaranteed hours of hilarious (or creepy) facial feature melding right at your fingertips."
I'm definitely going to have to start making more friends with mustached peeps.
At Apple’s WWDC event in San Francisco, Apple had a bunch of Cinema Display monitors mounted together on a wall showing what looked to be some sort of pulsating canvas. But a closer look revealed that it was actually a huge collection of icons for many of the apps available in the App Store, arranged by color. Apparently, when someone purchased one, that app’s icon would pulsate, creating the effect.
While it wasn’t quite real-time, nor was it entirely representative of all the more than 50,000 apps in the App Store, the visualization was pretty damn cool.

Nine Inch Nail's new iPhone application has apparently been denied by the 'censorship board' at Apple because the inclusion of the track "The Downward Spiral" on the app. I actually had this same problem with my mom and she threw out my copy of the album. I guess much hasn't changed in 15 years.
Check out the whole story on P4k.
Everyone is coming out with an iPhone app. Now Diplo has.

I have to admit, I'm a terribly selfish volunteer. Last year I had the grandiose idea of becoming a Big Sister, until I realized that my 9-5+ schedule would not work out with my future Little Sister's 3 PM after school program. A brief brush with becoming a kitten feeder at The Humane Society followed [Sundays? Thursdays?], as did contemplating being Saturday staff at St. Michael's Hospital, but apart from all my thought-that-counts volunteering, that's as far as I made it. The thought.
For those having similarly pressing schedules and an unshakable desire to volunteer, The Extraordinaries have devised a program that can suit all volunteer time constraints. Through what they refer to as "micro volunteer opportunities", you can now volunteer for many organizations simply by using your cell phone. [And no, peanut gallery, not to make the call!]
How would you like to identify craters on the surface of Mars for NASA? Or tagging images for the Smithsonian? Or fact checking items for reporters on the run? If you have a smartphone and a pocket of time [waiting for the bus / a client approval / an internet upload / parking space], it's possible.
If you have an iPhone you don't need me to tell you what it sounds like when you play audio off it. For those who don't...let's just say it's not great. But that can now be improved with SoundClip. SoundClip redirects sound from the iPhone toward you which increases the volume and clarity when you are playing your pals that hot new Lil' Wayne jam.
It's so easy! The device clips on to your dock connector and directs the sound waves towards you instead of away. And it comes in at a very reasonable $7.95. Why didn't I think of that?
