Feedpaper

What a smart idea! You can easily imagine feedpaper taking on the character of those Amazon recommended reading lists. Now if only this were integrated into Bloglines, I might find myself forced to switch ;-).

Fun trip to New York

Apart from dragging my bag around most of lower Manhattan, an awesome extended weekend. Will's Aero bed was very comfy. I saw Erik in 131, which was really fun. Zanza Bar was also pretty cool, and Carl introduced me to Olive Tree. People in New York seem to be busier than people in other cities. It's very weird. Writing this reminds me that I never wrote about my trp to the Bay Area - among other things, I ate brunch at Stacks with Vince and Albert. Hmm, I should get a digital camera one of these days.

Obviously it's been a big web surfing night for me

Smoots explained!

Although the choice is now obvious...

...this candidate comparer comparison is pretty interesting.

Speaking of travel...

These lists are kind of fun. I could use a good beachy vacation. Mmm. Running on sand.

Where I've Been

This is kind of fun...a map of where I've been I've been to (good find, Albert)....

make your own

If you need a cheat sheet, try this. I'm still not sure I got all of my road trip correct. ;-)

Stuff I've been consuming

Saw City of God this weekend...quite a movie. A little depressing, but very well told, not unlike Mystic River, although City of God has much more style. I'm very curious to know more about the true story...someone was telling me that tourists actually tour the slums in Rio. Also saw Casablanca at the Brattle...much better than I remembered, I think I must been half-asleep when I saw it last.

I've also been eating at new places, like East Coast Grill (the vegetable entree was actually really interesting!) and Joshua Tree (pretty average) and Bomboa (snazzy atmosphere). Also went to Bertucci's and Peach Farm again. Last night, hit Pour House (much nicer than the last time I went, now has a tap!) and LIR (a little too loud and grown-up-frat-partyish).

Still on the prowl for a new album to buy. In the meantime, Jonathan pointed out the gray album.
