Kick ass music

Calle 13 is the hottest band this end of the world right now. Not only that, they're well good too. Here's the new track brought forward from their new album out October, called 'Calma Pueblo'.

You should be reading 'Colombia Reports'

Colombia Reports is an English language online daily that popped up on my screen about a year ago. I've been drawn back to it more and more often, and nowadays it's part of my normal day-to-day reading.

For the wide coverage of Colombian affairs they cover, their team of what looks like 17 people (including editor, reporters, photographers, office and sales) is remarkably small. The best compliment I can offer them is to say I sometimes forget I'm not reading in Spanish over at the site, it's that good. These guys actually do real, genuine reporting, too. It's not just a whole page of newswire re-hashes that you can read in other places. It's the real deal, unafraid of reporting Colombia the way it is in English.

So now you know; there's a top quality news service out there on Colombia in the English language available to you for free (they survive on advertising and donations). Go see for yourself on this link and from today you'll find the link to Colombia Reports on the IKN right-hand linksbar.
