New York...lyrics Nina Hagen
New York City is the hottest place
For a honeymoon in a hotel room
New York City is my favorite place
'Cause I know so many people with a golden face
Uh-huh
It's always late at night when I wanna go out
And New York City has for sure the horniest crowd
Especially for me, this is true,
I have the best time when you're there too
Honey, after the show, when we are ready to go
We are going disco
But before we hit East 7th Street
We are going to another disco
Disco after disco
And shaking our hair to the disco rap
AMPM, Pyramid, Roxy, Mudd Club, Danceteria
The newest club is opening up (repeat x3)
New York, New York (repeat x4)
Yeah!
New York City is the hottest place
For a honeymoon in a hotel room
Uh-huh
New York City is a place so nice
Everybody says it so they had to name it twice
New York my happy love's you, I love you very much
I could not live without you, so let's always keep in touch
New York City has the fanciest rule
When you want to live in this town you just have to be a fool
After the show when we are ready to go
We are going disco
But before we hit East 7th Street
We are going to another disco
Disco, after disco
And shaking our hair to the disco rap
AMPM, Pyramid, Roxy, Mudd Club, Danceteria
The newest club is opening up (repeat x3)
New York, New York (repeat x8)
Yeah
It's going hop hop hop hop hop hop
Straight up to the top
Hop hop hop hop hop hop
Straight up to the top
Let there be light
'Cause David Bowie's gonna be here tonight in New York
I create ecstacy in my world
I know who I am
And I am willing to declare myself to the world
I am a star!

If Big Brother wanted proof of your coordinates, why not surveil yourself? After Hasan Elahi was taken for a terrorist, he implanted a GPS-enabled device in his cellphone, art and life merged. Several times a day, the artist inputs his location into the phone and his computer records the data (he hopes to incorporate a live GPS tracker soon).

"10 Questions For Morgan Spurlock
By Hillary Batchelder, Jeff Chu
He gorged on McDonald's for the 2004 documentary Super Size Me, then went to TV with his nonfiction series 30 Days on FX. Season 2 of Morgan Spurlock's critically acclaimed show--which explores what happens when you spend a month with someone on the opposite side of a controversial issue--premieres this week. TIME's Hillary Batchelder and Jeff Chu spoke with Spurlock, 35, about hamburgers, going to jail and growing up as a dancer in West Virginia.
30 Days dealt with flash-point issues like homophobia last season. What will you tackle this season?

"US VC Insights
Allen Morgan, one of the General Partners of 'Tier 1' west coast firm Mayfield, has just finished his '10 Commandments' series of posts. Any first-time entrepreneur planning to seek VC financing at some point will find worth reading and reflecting on Allen's interesting insights. I always say in such circumstance that no one should take 'VC Do's and Don'ts' literally because each startup and each fund are particular. However Allen's points are often practical, and sometimes candid, and can be applied to many (first timer's) situations. Here they are:
1. Do your homework, and contact the right person
2. Be on time
3. Tease, don't overwhelm
4. Know your audience
5. Create the 'Aha' early
6. Explain the idea by analogy to, or contrast with, older ideas
7. Go with 13 or less slides
8. Know what you don't know -- and admit it
9. Be like Goldilocks, when it comes to competition
10. Control the meeting -- but be smart about it

interesting... hope to see you soon! james
"Spurred by a culture of popular expression and debate that can be traced back to France's 17th-century salons, the French are embracing weblogs with a greater zeal than anyone on the European continent.
Take a recent Paris warehouse party, which hooked up 200 local bloggers in person for the first time, an illustration of the European web's best-kept secret -- when it comes to blogs, the French can't get enough.
'The French have a long tradition of speaking loudly,' said Lo�c Le Meur, a Frenchman and Six Apart's European vice president. 'We are the people who made the French Revolution, (the national uprising of) May '68 -- and just look at all our strikes! We always want to debate. Perhaps blogs are the ultimate tool for us to express ourselves.'"

Rocketboom VideoBlog... vblogs... better than CNN?
Rocketboom:
I thought you might enjoy this daily vblog.... it's different than the mainstream media!
hope to see you soon! james
"Rocketboom is a three minute daily video weblog based in New York City covering information and commentary ranging from top news stories to quirky internet culture. Agenda includes releasing each new clip at 9am EST, Monday through Friday. With a heavy emphasis on international arts, technology and weblog drama, Rocketboom is presented via online video and widely distributed through RSS.
RSS (Real Simple Syndication) is an exciting web technology that allows viewers to subscribe and then download newly published content to their computers or portable players automatically once it becomes available. As a result, when a subscriber is ready to view the new video there is no download or buffer delay. [*note: the word 'subscribe' can be misleading because everything is free]
Rocketboom is currently one of the most popular videoblogs on the internet with more daily subscribers for original syndicated multimedia content than nearly any other site, including podcasts.
We differ from a regular TV program in many important ways. Instead of costing millions of dollars to produce, Rocketboom is created with a consumer-level video camera, a laptop, two lights and a map with no additional overhead or costs. Also, Rocketboom is distributed online, all around the world and on demand, and thus has a much larger potential audience than any TV broadcast. However, we spend $0 on distribution because bandwidth costs and space are donated, and $0 on promotion, relying solely on the viral nature of the internet. Finally, while TV programs have traditionally been uni-directional, Rocketboom engages its international audience in a wide range of topical discussions. "
