    by
    “To build a cyberinfrastructure that scales without stiflling innovation, that is self-supporting without being isolated or fatally idiosyncratic” This quote impressed me.

    by
    Duck Sauce’s “Barbra Streisand” was pretty popular last year in 2011. Usually, dance music reaches to the climax gradually on the half way, which is a little different to the structure of mainstream songs.
