A twice-weekly sharing of eco-shwag.
This post is for last Friday. A whole buncha CDs came in the BlogHer conference shwag bag — including a lot of music to listen to while online:
“Beats for Bloggers” is a compilation of 14 songs related to work — from Donna Summer’s “She Works Hard for the Money” to Michael Jackson’s “Working Day and Night” to Frank Sinatra singing “Nice Work If You Can Get It” — put together by a company promoting a job search engine. I got 2 copies, for some reason.
“The Sound of Web Search” — aka “search music” — is basically music inspired by internet searches — “an experiment to make fun and art out of the Internet search experience.” Performed by a group called hakia, the music’s mostly spoken word over light music, some inspired by computer sounds –
Suffice to say I listen to different music while I blog and search. But for those who’ve always wanted to listen to Donna Summer while at the computer, lemme know! Comment or email by Thursday; drawing happens Friday. US addresses only.

I can’t listen to music while I’m writing! But the CD is an interesting idea.

I’m wondering if the song “Workin’ 9 to 5″ is on the cd. Thanks for your hard work Siel.
