8. Today's Smart Choice: Don't Own. Share -  

And it's the young who are leading the way toward a different form of consumption, a collaborative consumption: renting, lending and even sharing goods instead of buying them. You can see it in the rise of big businesses like Netflix, whose more than 20 million subscribers pay a fee to essentially share DVDs, or Zipcar, which gives more than 500,000 members the chance to share cars part-time.

Also a really good feature on stuff to do in the Inner West of Sydney :) in this month's issue of TIMEOUT.

WATCH:



2. Also watched an awesome foreign correspondent story from the ABC (It's about Israel, Palestine, boycotts and Max Brenner). Nice little story to give you some information on the whole Israel/Palestine situation.


LISTEN to THE GRID

Bunch of really groovy modern-jazz musicians from Perth Australia (there's some really good instrumental cover versions of Radiohead and Coldplay)

(Photo from Laki Sideris' website - you should really check it out from some sick photos from the Melbourne Jazz Festival! L-R: Dane Alderson (aka Jake Gyllenhall's long lost twin), Ben Vanderwal, Tim Jago)

EAT:

Banh-Mi (image from the New York Times)- available from all good Vietnamese bakeries. Hit up Cabramatta or Marickville for the best eats in a crunchy delicious baguette filled with addictive porkORchickenORvegetarian goodness. There's a sick joint up on Enmore Rd, Newtown. But they're everywhere in Sydney.

If you're feeling a bit flashy, Ms G's in Potts Point does a sick, albeit REALLY EXPENSIVE AND TINY one in the form of a gourmet slider.
