This is not a mashup album, this is an album about Wayne.  Courtesy of My Sick Uncle, you can download it now for free. One of my favorite tracks is the remake of Hall & Oates with Lollipop.   When you’re done with that, check out the  Notorious B.I.G. album.

Facebook let it all hang out to a select group of members to test their new search interface.  The system would allow members to search their news feed for recent updates, photos, links, videos and notes being shared on friends’ profiles and fan Pages. Users who have made their profile and content available to anyone will also be searchable.

SEOMoz yammers it up during Whiteboard Friday to talk about visualization.  I think visualization is one of those new and sexy fields that you’ll hear more and more about in the near future.

Every month this past year, I’ve sat down and banged out (i.e. uploaded) 12-20 tracks that I thought were really good and ahead of the curve.  From these monthly singles there were a few albums that really stuck out to me.  It was tough and there were a lot of a lot of albums that were deserving this year, but here are my picks for best albums of 2008.  I hope it’s as good for you as it was for me.
