José González Live at Razzmatazz 2, Barcelona

Here's José González, one of my all-time favorite musician, playing live at Razzmatazz 2, Barcelona. González performed Hints, Heart Beats and How Low. Check out his mad skills on his classical guitar. Just so you know, it's pretty challenging to sing while plucking the strings at the same time.

"Equal parts shruggy New York indie strumming and groovy Afro-pop, Vampire Weekend's organ-and-drum runs highlight narratives about relationships, punctuation, and sometimes both" - Spin

AirMail for MacBook Air

I'm sure some of you Mac followers are aware that Apple will be releasing their new MacBook known as the MacBook Air, a super slick laptop with superb performance. MacBook is one of the most wanted machine that every single person who matters about being cool should own one of these. MacBook Air is known to be the thinnest laptop ever made in history.

To suit this soon-to-be-released super gadget, a case has been introduced by two Apple geeks, Jona Becktolt and Claire L. Evans, known as AirMail. AirMail looks like a manila folder with red holder, just like the ones we use for storing documents and paperworks. AirMail is made for preventing scratches and smudges, and protecting light knocks. This sleeve case is handmade out of durable upholstery-grade vinyl, and lined with fuzzy, soft fleece.

The sleeves are available for pre-order now for $29.95 and shipping begins two weeks from 15 January, or maybe when MacBook Air becomes readily available.
