David Emery OnlineOff to see the music
24 August 2006
This weekend it’s Reading Festival, the second best festival in the world ( here’s the first ). I’m mostly looking forward to Eagles of Death Metal, The Noisettes, Giant Drag, The Raconteurs, Tapes ‘n Tapes, Metric and a few others.
This means I may well not have time to post tomorrow; we’ll see!
It doesn’t, of course, help that nothing much seems to be going on right now on t’internet. Following on from yesterday’s space oriented post comes the news that Pluto is no longer a planet .
Poor thing. Imagine, you go your entire life wandering around thinking you’re a planet and then: BAM! That’s it. Planet status no more!
It must be quite upsetting.
The only thing of any interest – battery recalls are not interesting, nor is Sony buying Grouper (they have money and are scared – it’s not rocket science) – is the launch of TechCrunch UK . The lack of a more active UK based startup scene is an interesting topic; hopefully TechCrunch UK will elucidate further on this topic and also prove to be something of a catalyst with UK based entrepreneurs.
