Social networking, Web 2.0, startups

Press Think
NYU’s Jay Rosen on journalism

Buzz Machine
Jeff Jarvis’ sometime annoying but always interesting tak

Scripting News
Dave Winer’s blog is a little insider-y, but well worth reading

SO…

I’m going to the Atlantis in the Bahamas tomorrow. That should be a grand time. I’m going with my brother and meeting my parents there. Looking forward to it…

Unfortunately, I have a week-long meeting in White Plains next week. When I return from the Bahamas on Tuesday, I have to unpack my suitcase, repack it with work clothes, and catch a late Metro North train to White Plains. I’ll be staying there from Tuesday night to Friday! Ugh!

Happy 420…

… although no one seems to really know why “420” became synonymous with marijuana smoking, according to this article:

Music to my ears

Ahh, new music. I’m really into some great tracks that have just surfaced. Green Day’s “Know Your Enemy”, Calvin Harris’s “I’m Not Alone” and Magistrates’ “Heartbreak” are some of my favorites…
