DetroitCIO Magazine becomes the latest publication to pile onto Detroit:

It’s easy to pick on poor Detroit, but it would hardly be any IT staffer’s destination of choice right now. What’s left of the tech jobs at automobile industry companies that haven’t already been outsourced (see: GM) is quite low as those companies and their suppliers try to survive bankruptcy and the global recession. Detroit also has the distinction of being named to the top 10 of Forbes’ “Fastest Dying U.S. Cities” list.

Way to kick us when we’re down. Thankfully I have a job right now, but who knows these days…

When returning from a walk with your wife and dog, it’s probably not a good idea to tell her it was nice to take her for a walk.

Invincible ft. Finale – “Locusts” (docu-music-video)

March 11th, 2009 by matt · detroit, music


Detroit Hip-Hop artists Invincible & Finale rhyme about the impacts of gentrification on the Motor City.

It’s a slow news day, I’m bored, and for no other reason than that I’m posting this video. It’s also catchy and I like the scenery. So sue me.
