We are the mashups we want to see (Plz RT, Digg)
People have been asking a lot about ways for us to continue the momentum of the Obama campaign. How do we make sure that the country doesn't snap back into apathy and how do we work together to identify and address our problems. Clearly, the internet is going to be a major organizing mechanism... ...

(Poking the bear) An idea for the NY Tech Meetup: Disband it
When Scott Heiferman announced his abdication from the NY Tech Meetup throne at the last Meetup, he said that he had asked himself the question of whether the Meetup could be more than just a once a month pitch meeting. It's exactly the same question I asked three years ago when I started nextNY.&nb ...

TeachStreet and the untapped potential education market
I've been watching TeachStreet because I'm obviously interested in the education market, but they also participated in my Blogger's Challenge review thing, so their kind donation has bubbled my opinions up to the surface of my blog. Right now, TeachStreet has a little bit of a chicken a ...

AOL makes me sad
I used to have a page at AOL Hometown. It was the first website I ever made. It had imagemaps and everything. It also had a long list of quotes... because who hasn't kept a quote book at one point or another. And now? It's gone. AOL scuttled it without any warning to ...

They're not the only ones trying to make your web experience smarter, as per Fred: "Adaptive Blue recognizes pages about things (books, music, film, stocks, wine, people, etc).

Aiming for 30 Under 30
Have you ever felt like you never realized how much you were capable of, because, simple as it may seem, no one told you along the way? Despite the fact that I went to a magnet school, I never strived to be a leader in high school or to discover the unique imprint I could leave on the world, mostly ...

I live for this: The challenge of entrepreneurship
I've said this before, but I'll be honest: I never wanted to be an entrepreneur. Well, I never wanted to be an entrepreneur when I knew what being an entrepreneur was. Back when I was like 10, I wanted to have my own car company. I used to draw cars and I'd make annual report ...

Defending Vices
I was having a conversation with a friend of mine who is a member of the Church of Latter Day Saints (a Mormon) about being chaste. (About her being chaste, obviously... bit late for me.) Oh and PS, she doesn't agree with her church's stand on gay marriage and hey, neither do I, so ...

Unpaid internships are a ripoff
There. I said it. More often than not, when you "employ" students as unpaid interns, you and the school facilitating this practice by offering credit are giving students the short end of the stick. Companies say the students are picking up valuable experience, but how many unpaid interns ...
