    Thomas Friedman, whom I have had issues with in the past, is spot on in his latest column: The End of Average. In which he argues that workers and companies simply can not survive in this economy by merely being average.

    In the past, workers with average skills, doing an average job, could earn an average lifestyle. But, today, average is officially over. Being average just won’t earn you what it used to. It can’t when so many more employers have so much more access to so much more above average cheap foreign labor, cheap robotics, cheap software, cheap automation and cheap genius. Therefore, everyone needs to find their extra — their unique value contribution that makes them stand out in whatever is their field of employment. Average is over.

    This is the best news in a long time. When the Feds shut down the scumbag website Meaupload, they seized “Shotguns, a Rolls Royce Phantom and millions of dollars” from the owners. That Rolls Royce Phantom was paid for by me and countless other copyright owners like labels and artists who’s work they illegally shared on their site. These scumbags make money off our content by selling ads around the download links. I cant wait for the same thing to happen to other sites like YouSendIt, WeTransfer and countless others.

    Charlie Brooker on some things we can do without in 2012.

    Stop creating “Keep Calm and Carry On” variants. It belongs on a poster, or a mug, or a tea towel sold by Barter Books. But not on a packet of condoms or a soft drink. Or a cushion. Or engraved on your baby’s face. Every bastard’s churning out “Keep Calm” merchandise these days.

    Happy 10-year anniversary Guantanamo. Note its no longer Bush’s prison. Its Obama’s shame, who is turning out to be a worse president than Bush and Cheney combined. Perhaps the worst do-nothing piece of shit president in US history.
