Sometimes, get a friend to review a product
So, the last big player of last months (Gasp!) New York Tech meetup just came back from San Diego, Comixology. Interestingly, so did my friend. He’s in the middle of selling off all of his old school stock of his (now closed *sob*) comic book store at Comic-Con San Diego! (hence the San Diego Connection) [...]

A study in Contrasts
From the New York Tech meetup, Jetsetter and Stuffbuff are a study in contrasts. Jetsetter is the travel emails/section of Gilt Groupe. They tract purchases, clickthrough, types of photos, everything. And it is an up front purchase and an experience they control. They choose lux places, they control the prices, the photos, everything. it looks [...]

The end is near- (or not)
So, while in the middle of taking a look at all things New York Tech Meetup (even if this requires admitting to myself that I am single, gawd), one of the realities of All Things Social Media has taken on reality. It’s name is Hot Potato. It reminds you of that game, Hot Potato, that [...]

On Sam Lessin and Email
Sam Lessin, of Drop.Io fame and fortune, has built on top of drop.io (if I had to guess) a service that allows you to charge to send emails. Sam’s a smart guy. One of the few in NY who I can honestly say is well thought out. We’re in a minor disagreement over a very [...]

Searching Versus Finding
(Or where we need to go in the future of search) One of the most problematic parts of Google (and in fact, on some very basic level all search engines, including the new Facebook one), is that it’s business model is built on search plus placed advertisments in that search. At first, this seems very [...]

While everyone else was having a Privacy Scandal
Image by ShanaLC via Flickr I saw the weirdest thing recently. While we are all having conniptions about privacy, the last person I would ever think threw a wrench in the entire argument about having privacy. Maybe. A fairly obscure blogger (who I like to read), named Hasidic Rebel, decided to unmask himself as Sholom [...]

May #NYTM The Review!!!
Image by froboy via Flickr Note: after this point- we’re Moving in with NYU. See you downtown. GoodCrush’s RandomDorm (yes I was able to test this)- A) Still isn’t working for me. Though I may retest, I can’t tell if this is a multi-tab eater thing. Or it may be a University of Chicago [...]

The New York Tech MeetUp- The March Edition
Image by ShanaLC via Flickr I know it is late. I’ve had a humongously amazing, yet busy week. (and I don’t normally talk like that) I feel so thankful that I am finally really starting to become less shy with people in the NY Tech Community. Everyone I am meeting has been wonderful. Y’all are [...]

Over-Advertisement makes me Want You!
Image by Christian Bachellier via Flickr Actually it makes me want nothing. I’m living in the age of over-advertisement. It’s everywhere, and often misplaced. My to be children, by the time they are 6, are more likely to know the cartoon character Ronald McDonald that to recongize the face of their current President. And I’m [...]
