5. Silent Disco

Definition: A noise pollution-free, eco-friendly idea that debuted at the UK Glastonbury Festival in 2005, Team Manila experimented with it during Manila Design Week in 2009. Instead of using traditional speakers, music is transmitted over FM receivers and heard through wireless headphones. In simpler "flash mob" versions, participants bring their own mp3 player or iPod and choose their own music. The more advanced version has a DJ, or several DJ channels you can pick from. The best part? You can share your music with someone–a surefire way to meet that cute guy or girl.

How to use in a sentence: "I had a blast dancing to the Black Eyed Peas at the silent disco last night. Problem is, my date was listening to Celine Dion."

6. Spotify

Pronunciation: Spot-ti-fie

Definition: While it's only available in Europe right now, Spotify.com has the potential to overtake iTunes as the number-one go-to source for songs. For a certain amount, users can search and access more than 6 million tracks with virtually no buffering delay. It's like having your own database of millions of songs. The clincher? It's completely legal.

7. Wallgasm

Etymology: Facebook Wall + Orgasm

Definition: Ever seen a Facebook wall during someone's birthday? That barrage of messages, links and posts is called a wallgasm. There's a lot going on at once. (Or you could also use it to refer to a particularly flirty exchange between you and your crush on your FB wall–we think that would be apt usage.)
