I am going to place the spotlight on my ever growing blogroll|linklist, due to my scouring the web for information passed over by the mainstream media. I will be including a short review, and would love to know your own thoughts on the site and it’s contributions.
I will start off this series with It’s the END of the WORLD as WE know it. A video blog or vlog speaking on the current events with a heavy dose of bad language and cynicism. It’s a combination of real news and yelling at the asinine politicians, that’s why I like it.
The host of the vlog is The Stimulator, a computer generated mash up, think Max Headroom but cooler, who has been doing the do on the doo doo since June of ‘04. The Stimulator also interviews persons that I bet you won’t see anywhere else.
Some of the most recent topics dissected are Oil Pimping, Nuclear Jihad, Trillionaire Debt, Habeas What? and Meteor Vomit.
Where to listen? 4ZZZ, POP Defect Radio, WMPG
Where to watch? Free Speech TV, IndyMedia Presents, Off the World TV, Vision TV
So what do you think of It’s the END of the WORLD as WE know it?

Checked out the site, and the first thing that hit me was the dark colors of the website, which I liked and the swearing, which I wasn’t too impressed with. I checked out one of the videos “Garbage Wars”, 10mins of stimulating news and views. I loved it. The site definitely deserves a mention. I think the computer generated character is interesting.
Overall, I like it a lot, and will definitely be checking it out regularly.

Welcome K. Owusu
I am glad to see you making your merry way about the posts.
There is definitely heavy use of bad language but the materials shared definitely are critical. It could be argued that by using swearing it increases the audience, it is non-elitist that’s for sure.
I look forward to seeing you around more often.
Wishing you well
