Despite the current economic woes, we still have so many things to be thankful for. The food on our tables, the clothes on our backs, and the wonderful organizations such as Saint Vincent de Paul who are devoted to helping those who are not so lucky. As a way of saying “thanks” and “giving” back to this organization, Ninthlink Cause showed its gratitude during this holiday season by choosing Saint Vincent de Paul as the November cause.

Prithvi Virasinghe and Analisa Tamayo from MTV will be presenting.

Okay, so you have been keeping up with the innovations, the changes in consumer purchasing and interests, what brands are popular, what brands are not popular, and what new technology is going to roll off the assembly line tomorrow. For others, it’s everything they can do to keep up with the speed of technology—for instance, it was less than half a year that Apple introduced the iPhone G3 after the G2, when the G2 was still on many people’s shopping lists.
