*Intended sarcasm. But seriously now, we all secretly knew that unless a musician was moderately famous, online sales garnering even a decent chunk of change would be nearly impossible – any artist in any medium can tell you the promise of the new ‘internet economy’ is essentially the same old chestnut: undiscovered, unemployed.

How much does this guy make you feel like your own motion graphics and video editing reel is not so shabby? Thank you Martin Gamal, I feel like I’m on top of the world right now! Thanx Matt for this GEM of a reel!

It’s like “This American Life” if “This American Life” was faster paced, had more science, better sound effects and didn’t make you want to weep in your closet at some point. RadioLab – no xanax required.

“T3kn0l0gy makes me wanna dance now” is the motto of self-proclaimed “nerd girl & tech guru,” Tina T3k.

… I say second only because I will always have a special place in my heart for spammer scam messages from exiled Ethiopian princes. Although this is pretty freaking incredible…

There are so many amazing things going on with the cover art, titles and taglines…  like… I can’t even…

Tagline: How do you convince a woman to live life by different rules?
Answer: Rohypnol & Ryan Seacrest’s hair.

Tagline: Can the wrong guy ever turn into Mr. Right?
Answer: Who cares as long as he’s wet and [...]
