The internet is a dark place right now. If you and a friend are fighting over whether or not Scarlett Johansson was in “Home Alone 3″, you might run into trouble if you Wiki the answer – and yes, she was. Sites like Wikipedia, Reddit, and Craig’s List have turned out the lights on their patron, all in protest of the Stop Online Piracy Act and Protect IP Act.

It’s Martin Luther King Day, and that means different things to different people. As with most other holidays, there are a lot of sales going on and you can save big by using our online coupons. With that out of the way, I hope once before you start and after you finish shopping, you take some time to reflect.

KarmaLoop is a brand for people who don’t follow suit with mainstream fashion. With a heavy urban influence, though it branches into other styles, this retailer offers everything any young urbanite could ask for. I hope my mild sarcasm is translating. This isn’t the type of site for someone who would say “young urbanite”, it’s geared more towards a genuine urban demographic. Not the kind of clothes you would find in any old, suburban mall, but cutting edge fashion for people really living that lifestyle.
