iTunes Indie Samplers

iTunes has put together some good indie samplers, who can resist a little Death Cab for Cutie:

Thanksgiving Songs

So while exchanging emails with Joe and Josh we realized there are very few songs that you associate with thanksgiving (and kids songs aren't included). We are trying to come up with some and are not doing such a good job so far, aside from Too Much Joy's Thanksgiving in Reno --

So help us out, post some in the comments.

MC YURI - "in da cab"

I'm sure you can
Download the hottest tracks at iTunes. but can you find MC YURI there - I bet not!

iTunes finally launches affiliate program

iTunes: Over 1 million tracks from all five major and more than 600 leading independent labels.

So iTunes finally put out an affiliate program - not a lot of customization in there yet - I'd like to link to specific songs, but I'm sure it will get to that point. Until then just click through and check out the music:

iTunes offers Free Download: Single of the Week. Only at iTunes

Chingay vs. Chingy

As a public service, I am posting to clarify the difference:

Chingay
Chingay which originated in the early 19 th century, is held annually and traditionally during the Lunar New Year. It is a multi-cultural and cosmopolitan parade, preserving the tradition of our Chinese New Year festivities while showcasing the rich diversity of our society.

Chingy
Influenced by LL Cool J, Run DMC, DJ Quik, Snoop Dogg, Nelly, Ludacris and others, Chingy quickly built a solid reputation in St. Louis and earned himself a slot opening for Nelly in 2002.

I have to admit, I know more about Chingay than Chingy.

Smart & Musical

Stop the presses - they have 1-upped the beetle/ipod promotion.
Smart has integrated the ipod w/ an ipod cradle right in the car.

I recommend clicking on the english link, but it's up to you.

I like the fact they follow the Henry Ford theory on choice: they come in any size you want, as long as it's small.

I was always fascinated by these cars when we lived in Switzerland -- they are so small, but perfect for driving around narrow European city roads and so much easier to park (when we lived in Singapore we had a Volvo -- great car, way too big for Singapore. Being 6' 3" caused some difficulty in finding other cars available there that I could drive without the steering wheel becoming welded to my legs!).
