IN SHORT: One for the Americans. This ticking time-bomb of an application is a one of it’s kind device that calculates each American’s share of the national debt at any one time. Watching the figures – which are in the tens of thousands (we won’t spoil the funning by giving you too accurate a figure) [...]

1. Roll Deep – Good Times (last week – 1)
Roll Deep seemed to come out of nowhere to clinch last week’s number one, and they’ve held on to it this week too, amidst and ever increasing volume of nationawide airplay and what seems like the support of half of London. One singles does not a superstar [...]

UK Singles Chart:

Based in the home of ‘grime’, London, since 2002, this collective was founded in 2002 and scored two minor chart hits in 2005, but this is by far their biggest smash so far. It’s a happy go lucky, club ready [...]
We’d almost given up on the Nexus One finally making its way over from the States, but as we type it’s making its way onto the shelves of your nearest Vodafone store. The prices are a touch disappointing – only slightly less than the current market price of an iPhone, though you can grab it [...]
