Diggnation coming to New York next week!

May 18th, 2008 — New York City, Web 2.0, event, peer to peer

Diggnation will be recording their next show at Studio B in Brooklyn on June 4th. If you don’t know, diggnation is a “news” show from the creator of Digg.com - Kevin Rose and his buddy Alex Albrecht. It’s sure to be a great time and if you can make it you should really come through! Studio B is located in the uber trendy neighborhood of WIlliamsburg. It’ll be my first Diggnation ever! The show takes place on Thursday, June 4th. It starts at 7PM and continues till 11:45PM but you should get there at six to enjoy good music and drinks with other digg fans before the show begins.

Studio B is located at 259 Banker Street between Meserole Avenue & Calyer Street in Brooklyn. Get directions from HopStop.com.

Here’s Someone Who’s Willing to Go Beyond “It’s Complicated”

April 24th, 2008 — New York City, Web 2.0

I found this from OverheardinNewYork.com, a great social quote website:

NYU girl to friend: So then he like bitched me out, hardcore, in a text. And he didn’t talk to me for like a day so I was just like, “Ugh, whatever.” But then he ended our relationship on facebook! And I was just like, “Oh my god!” I need someone who’s mature, y’know?
Friend: Oh… Yeah. Totally

Though I personally believe that Overrhearders mislabel anyone down by Union Square as NYU students, this is pretty much self-explanatory.  Good day.

a little bit of nyc, entrepreneurship, and web 2.0

April 21st, 2008 — New York City, Startupping

A little about myself:

I’m a student at Fordham University studying Finance with a concentration in Entrepreneurship.  I also work at the world’s largest brokerage - Merrill Lynch, as a Jr. Analyst.  In about 5 years, I will become the new “Kevin Rose.”  Don’t believe me?  Well then, just wait and see.

The blog will just chronicle my everyday findings, usually snippets of juicy content from all over the internet.  I’m gonna teach myself a few programming languages like rubyonrails, try to promote my blog and launch a few startups while still a full-time college student and part-time junior analyst at a major wall street firm.  If you like what you see, let me know.  Support me and my halfbaked ventures by commenting on the posts and sharing it with others.  I won’t have too many ads on the site, but if something tickles your fancy the least bit, take a look at it and support this poor blogger.

And with that, you’ll find a whole lot of Web 2.0 goodness with a sexy New York City flavor.

Enjoy with a cup of tea.
