  1. Bono has quadrupled his money after buying a 1.5 per cent stake in Facebook last year. He's now made a whopping £485 million after investing £130 million in the social networking site. [The Sun]


    i just don't know what i think about bono anymore...? was he not rich enough? did he feel the need to make himself richer?

    not sure i can relate to him at all anymore (same as i can't relate to any other of the worlds tycoons)

    This is not Bono, this is Elevation Partners. Well, it's a bit him, but not really.

  4. i know it's not him personally per se but it sometimes seems a distant memory that to me, he was just the singer in a great band... whenever bono is mentioned in the press or by the general public these days it's NEVER cos of his band or the music they make..

    i don't know... i hope some people can see what i'm trying to say but it's a hard feeling to describe and put into words.

    I feel you, its like Music should be a rhapsody and the sole song of the singer and corruption of that ideal breeds indifference.


  6. True. And they're trying to recover from that failure with Palm.

  7. Bono and his new buddy:



  9. It can't be. I'm pretty sure that Fox News does not condone the support of people who do good for humanity by their staff.
  10. who's that guy?


  11. The guy looks like Glenn Beck, a comedian on the US news parody channel Fox News. When the most sane person on your news channel is (the racist) Bill O'Reily, you have a serious problem.

    Yeah, it's Beck. I hope Bono disinfected afterwards.
