Haven’t done one of these posts in a while but it’s been a long first three weeks of the new year, and a lot of depressing news that’s enough to make a person want to…

But what better timing than this to have something to pick one’s spirits up.

Ok Go, the band that gave the world that creative music video of them dancing on treadmills, are out with a new album and a new song called “This Too Shall Pass”. Ironically, the band that gained its primary exposure on the web when it’s creative low cost dancing videos went viral, is now being told by their record company EMI that fans will no longer be able to embed their new single. Talk about social media done wrong. Ok Go have put out an open letter explaining the situation and asking people to embed their video on video, the only place that allows for embedding. Oh, and EMI has just sued vimeo.

So watch it while it lasts…
