What you are about to read is a compilation of my Top 5 Favorite Links of the past week. Each and every week i will post links from various topics. Whether they are tech, videos, sport, gaming or girls; i guarantee they will entertain….. or so i hope.

Yet another claim to fame? I think so!
After a nice eventful evening at The Gumtree Meet back in April, i was asked by the jolly people at 1000heads to contribute for the Gumtree Blog. WIN!

So being the uber geek that i am, you can pretty much guess what i wrote about.
Here is a short excerpt:

In the late ’90s and early aughts, MP3 players were known, well, as MP3 players.
However, when Apple launched the iPod on October 21, 2001, it was such a huge success that it only took a couple of years for most people to simply start using the name “iPod” whenever they referred to an MP3 player.
Apple had sold 125,000 iPods by the end of 2001; it sold a flabbergasting 225 million by 2010.
Coupled with the music management/online music store one-two punch that was iTunes, the iPod turned out to be one of the most successful gadgets of all time.

It’s true: The rest of the MP3 market never stood a chance.
