quote of the day

it's a trusm that capitalists all believe in free markets until they have to live in one.


taken out of in the search of stupidity". and put into context with these stories i was about to smirk a bit:

  • nokia moves factory out of germany towards romania ... germany's government now is "surprised" by the fact that "globalization" means "global", not only "global for germany".


  • an old papermill, ran over by cheap chinese imports


  • and there are much more stories similar to that out there. but as long as the costs for the transport of the stuff made somewhere else to the other side of the planet is below the price to produce the same stuff at site, the whole situation wont change.

    nine inches

    trent and his crew did some kind of "strange" marketing in the last weeks. he blogged nothing more than one sentence, mostly just some words like "you ll get yours" .. "soon you will see" ... "tick tock" .

    well, today is crunch time: new album (double album to be precise) ... ghost I - IV.

    its totally instrumental, i am currently listening to the flash stream ... much fun.

    nice price as well, pretty similar to what saul williams costs, 5 dollars (hehe) for the download, 10 dollars for 2 cds (preorder, release in april) + the downloads :)

    good start into the week.

    update
    released under creative commons, yeah!
