Neither here nor there.

me and bjnovak

BJ NOVAK! one of the thinkers responsible for such gems as…

“Yes. It is true. I, Michael Scott, am signing up with an online dating service. Thousands of people have done it, and I am going to do it. I need a username, and… I have a great one. “Little Kid Lover”. That way people will know exactly where my priorities are at. “

What can I say, I’m a sucker for witty writer-actor combos. (Technically, he falls in the category of “neat” so hey, it works.)

SNSasty!

May 2, 2007

hey all,

so i know i’m “the neateater” and all, but i’ve been sorta late in getting on the SNS 2.0 train. So i’ve devoted the first few hours of today to gettin active on some of these awesome time-wasting sites.

Twitter – where you can broadcast to everyone exactly what you are doing, when you’re doing it, via IM, online, or SMS. and you can check out what other twitterers are doing. sounds stupid and pointless, but it’s actually really addictive and fun. for example i just received this update from MistralNLS: “I’m still in angnst….hey I’m almost 65! Kids understand this STUFF…I guess! OH, how can an aging lesbian comprehend this.” And from MLPrince: “looking in awe at my drink cup, ’cause the coffee barista spelled my name correctly. am i dreaming?” No you’re not, MLPrince – you’re TWITTERIN!

Yelp – i’m sure y’all have been peeping this for a while now, but if not, it’s a user review site for restaurants, stores, shops, etc all over the world. Kat’s are some of my fave (her kat and randy days did her well), and this guy also writes some sassy, informative ones about NYC. Here is mine – hope to update soon.

Ok that’s it. Sorry just two for now. but check back soon, because my good friend Raj will soon be unveiling his serious masterpiece that will revolutionize the way you look for things in new york.
