    Gordon Brown takin the cuss of his career!

    Posted on by

    Daniel Hannan is a writer and journalist, and has been Conservative MEP for South East England since 1999.

    He has also caught a bit of limelight thanks to a youtube clip of an speech to Brown about our current situation in Britain. Whats interesting about this is that Mr Hannan has been making these kind  of speeches  for many years now  im sure, yet  no one really has picked up on this till now due to a small company called  youtube and its  amazing reach it has amongst the tech-news-savvy folk out there. its now going passed the million hits mark on his video.!

    And if you click on the link below you shall witness this via the youtubes which has now made him kinda a famous around the wwwoo.. not bad for a backbench MEP

    $100 /10000 paid 1 cent to artist = 100$bill >sell

    Ten Thousand Cents from Ten Thousand Cents on Vimeo.
    what weird and wonderful things people come up with hey heres another site from yet more creative folks :

    “Ten Thousand Cents” is a digital artwork that creates a representation of a $100 bill. Using a custom drawing tool, thousands of individuals working in isolation from one another painted a tiny part of the bill without knowledge of the overall task. Workers were paid one cent each via Amazon’s Mechanical Turk distributed labor tool. The total labor cost to create the bill, the artwork being created, and the reproductions available for purchase (to charity) are all $100. The work is presented as a video piece with all 10,000 parts being drawn simultaneously. The project explores the circumstances we live in, a new and uncharted combination of digital labor markets, “crowdsourcing,” “virtual economies,” and digital reproduction.
