This is where I collect things. Maybe you'd also be interested in reading a few things that I've written, or viewing some of my photos, or even some of my videos. If you're feeling especially voyeuristic, you might even want to look through my links, listening habits, and social connections.

Find more links at the main office.

No, actually it really isn’t — neat trick, though. I just hope they aren’t playing by the bogus new rules.

Something my phone is disappointingly ill-suited for

Can you read it?

The hipster Holy Grail: a bike that talks to your iPhone.
It’s sort of like ‘Biking 2.0’ — whereby cheap electronics allow us to augment bikes and convert them into a more flexible, on-demand system

Endorsement: Small Chair and the McSweeney’s iPhone Application
I’ll be honest: I’m kind of a self-hating iPhone owner. Ok, maybe not self-hating, but I do make a concerted effort to avoid flaunting my little pocket gem — both in real life and on the Internet. However, I’m breaking my own rule for this: McSweeney’s just released an iPhone application, and I think it’s quite wonderful.
But it’s not just the beautifully designed little software package I’m enamored with, it’s this thing they’re doing called Small Chair. The price of the application ($5.99) also gets you a six month subscription to Small Chair, which is essentially a McSweeney’s imprint for the iPhone. I just finished reading Wells Tower’s short story “Raw Water” on the bus today, and next week I’ve been promised a Spike Jonze short film featuring Where the Wild Things author Maurice Sendak.
Admittedly, I’ve been a sucker for anything Dave Eggers has touched since I finished reading A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, and this is certainly no exception.
