Cutthroat Capitalism via Wired Magazine
I don’t know about you but I am really stoked that this week is over. On this week’s round up we check out the Somali pirates business model, what it is like to suffer from first person shooter disease, and yet another art gallery is shutting it’s doors. I am heading over to the West Loop to catch some shows. Hope I will see some of you out and about at openings. Take Care.
