Everyone's been asking me about ITP (for obvious reasons), but I've yet to come up with something succinct. Here, then, is the best I've done thus far, plus a moment of surprising clarity on the scope of my life, from a MySpace message to a friend who found out that ...
As of last night, I've officially upped the ante: not only have I begun playing Perplex City, but I'm now enmeshed in StreetWars, as well. I'd call them both Alternate Reality Games (ARGs), tho they're quite different. I won't go into all of that now (more after I've progressed a ...
Here are my notes for the here! meeting, most of which we never covered, but that form a geneal outline for how I'd explode a television channel, were I ever granted such powers. Interestingly, after writing all this out, I'm a little less interested in actually doing it. While it's ...

It's a big launch day for new blogs:
Gawker Media is launching Lifehacker, a productivity tools kinda blog, and Gridskipper, an urban travel blog.
