British singer/songwriter Lily Allen exploded onto the UK pop scene after posting demo tracks on her MySpace page in early 2005. That started a chain reaction of publicity that included thousands of friends on MySpace, airplay on BBC Radio 1, and record deal later that year. First out the gate was the single 'LDN,' followed by 'Smile,' both cracking the UK Top Ten. Embracing such influences as Blondie, The Specials, Lee Dorsey, The Slits, Happy Mondays, Kate Bush and T-Rex, Allen's wise beyond her years songwriting crosses many musical boundaries. Despite a sharp tongue and some above-average tabloid moments, her debut album 'Alright, Still' has endeared her to fans and is making new ones with every gig.

Needmore's "Gone Raw" community for sharing raw food recipes has recently passed the 500 recipe mark. Blue Hill has a corporate communications product, Chatter Mill. Peat and Ray teamed up in 2006 to create a coffee tasting website, "Cuppin," which won third place overall in the Rails Day 2006 contest.
