New Year's @ Centre St.

This line went around the block by our office for the temple down the street. It's the New Year on the Lunar calendar and it's gonna be a good one. Happy New Year to all taking the time out to eat big and wear red!

LINK Guitar Rising
Guitar Hero-esque game but with real guitars. I’d like to see this succeed, but I think it just won’t be as fun as a simplified version of the guitar which Guitar Hero has done so well. Still, it might have a niche in teaching real guitar playing.

LINK An Ad With Talking Pandas
In my opinion, these ads don’t add any value by playing on Chinese or Indian stereotypes, but they do ensure I’m never a customer of their service. The controversy stirred, unfortunately, does bring more attention to the creator’s business which I will n

WATERCOOLER Miranda July on Why You Should Vote

Here’s why you should vote: you are going to really love it, the whole strange procedure. You get to walk right into a building that you would never normally be allowed in, often an elementary school. You can pause in the hallway to look at all the weird school-art and feel the eerie vibe of hundreds of kids living their endless kid lives right nearby. Then you follow the arrows to the voting room and look at the faces of the volunteers – who are these people? There is a hush of secrecy, the voting booth is clunky, the whole thing seems fake somehow. You consider filling in all the bubbles, like you did on the SATs. But you don’t. You vote. You walk back outside feeling like you just gave blood or something, lightheaded from citizenry. You are wearing a sticker that says “I Voted” and you wish you could continue to get stickers like this throughout the day: I Ate Dinner, I Went To Sleep, I Got Out Of Bed, I Went To Work. But alas, it is just this one thing that we all do together, savor it.

...

pps: non-american subscribers: sorry. for everything. we are working on it.

A mid-town morning

I rarely find myself in midtown Manhattan so early in the morning. Turned out to be a peaceful walk with the midtown suits en route to my breakfast event.

The writer behind the Obama’s oratorical speeches is a 26 year-old by the name of Jon Favreau. He’s delivered some impressively poetic writing so far…
