The order is more or less chronologically from when I discovered them. Though some tracks might be older than 2009, but they are on the list as I haven’t discovered them before this year. There are some odd ones, and they are on the list simply cause they were fun (and very catchy!) like Rybak and David Guetta. Not quite sure what mood you would be in if you listen to the whole list in one go, but they all got my approval! :)

  1. Thunderheist “Jerk it”
  2. Miss Harmonica “Friday Night”
  3. Kid Cudi “Day n Nite”
  4. Alexander Rybak “Fairytale”
  5. Dizzee Rascal “Bonkers”
  6. Peter Fox “Alles neu”
  7. Lily Allen “Smile”
  8. Maskinen “Alla som inta dansar”
  9. Kings of Convenience “Boat Behind”
  10. La Roux “In for the kill”
  11. Lars Vaular “Solbriller på”
  12. Veronica Maggio “Mandågsbarn”
  13. Jay-Z “D.O.A.”
  14. Miike Snow “Animal”
  15. Prodigy “Omen”
  16. David Guetta “Sexy bitch”
  17. The Bloody Beetroots “Awesome”
  18. Kråkesølv “Privat regn”
  19. Bjørn Hellfuck “Krabbeklo”
  20. The Nextmen “Round of Applause”
  21. Einar Stray “Arrows”
  22. My Little Pony “A song for you on your 40th birthday”
  23. Therese Aune “Chamelon”

Then suddenly get an email from the lead developer at Rollip.com telling me about their website and web-application.

Its an easy 3 click manner to create images like the one you see on the left. Its free too!

One thing Im missing though, is the ability to choose the position and cropping of the photo I’m uploading to the Polaroid template. Hope to see that in their next release.

When you are connected on Gtalk it will show on your website without revealing your username.

Really great if you have a webshop for example and want to chat with your customers.

Great work Olark!

(Example: The fantastic song “Bonkers” by Dizzee Rascal & Armand Van Helden is not available on iTunes, nor have I found it in any shop, but its on Youtube…)

Only bad part about Gazzump is that you have to register.

But why pay, when you can create it yourself!? Laptop cardboard tutorial

Or even from a clothhanger.
