It bugs the hell out of me when the biggest artists in the world (or their representatives) refuse to embrace the Internet. Go on, try to watch a video of Madonna’s collaboration with Justin Timberlake on the web - you’ll find it hard to locate one.

The Proclaimers have lost the number one spot in the UK singles chart to Timbaland’s Give It To Me.
The Proclaimers recorded (I’m Gonna Be) 500 Miles in aid of Comic Relief and have held the number one for the last three weeks. But today they were knocked down to number four as Timbaland’s Give It To Me (featuring Nelly Furtado and Justin Timberlake) took top position.
