What better way to end 2011 than to be at the Memphis Zoo and see how our planets co-inhabitants spent the final day of 2011 (All photos were taken with my iPhone 4s)

Jackin Logos 1
In this day and age of business, companies need to stand out from the competition. Most accomplish this by having a dope logo. I have decided to see how many different logos I can jack and use my radio name, Mo Better, in some sort of way. Here is jackin logo # 1

@The Cody Simpson – The Power of Tweeting
Last week I met a kid that a friend of mine mentioned over 8 months ago, would blow up on the music scene. His name… Cody Simpson. Cody is a well spoken 14 year old singer, songwriter, surfer, from Australia who is now signed to a major label. I had dinner with him, his Dad, a few friends and family at a local Memphis Italian spot called Amerigo. We talked about the music biz, surfing, Australia, and finally twitter came up. Now Cody is still a kid, and kids do crazy things. Cody says he has a lot of followers (he was being modest, he had 950,000 at dinner) following him @TheCodySimpson. So to prove he has real fans he decided to tweet that he was having dinner with me, @MoBetter and a few others at the table and told his fans to follows us. What happened next was pure madness… for the next 12 hours my damn iphone almost melted because a 14 year old told people he was having dinner with me and to follow me on twitter. I never thought it would take a 14 year old to make me popular again. In a little over a day, my followers increased by 1,000. I am still getting followers and retweets from that one night with @TheCodySimpson. What have I learned from all of this? Its not what you say on twitter that matters, it only matters who you say it to, and who the hell is saying it.

The Gaga Effect: Amazon’s 99 Cent Gaga Album Debate
Lady Gaga just dropped a new album and the music industry will be tainted forever because Amazon.com lost their minds by offering the whole album for $.99 per download. Want to know how bad this is… I will let a letter from Stephanie Smith sum it up and let you know what Billboard Magazine’s response was to a claim that Lady Gaga’s album would sell 1 Million copies the first week.

Electric Cars: Cool, or Hype?
I have been debating the issue of an electric car. While the concept of driving without gas seems cool, how many jobs will be lost if the majority of us were to switch? Word is on average a fully electric vehicle would require a recharge after about 100 miles. So I guess that last minute trip to the store on a happy hour meeting could leave you stranded trying to get home.
