Are they serious?

Well, thank goodness for screen shots and blogs. Because, yes, morons there are black people on Twitter.

Say it isn't so!!!

Finally! Click over to Korea Beat for more info.

I found this on the Web 2.0 Asia blog this morning: wetoku (Konglish. Korean-English, for "we talk").

Since I might start doing interviews again pretty soon, this would be a great way to do it. I wonder if you can also use it to record multiple users and also set it up to record podcasts? (I guess if it records sound, if you edit it, why not?) I have to try this one.

This is a pretty funny blog that I learned about from FishBowl LA: http://www.mediabistro.com/fishbowlLA/blogistan/awful_library_books_117588.asp

I don't know if I agree. The truly awful books maybe should stay as a testament to what not to write ;)

This is a great discovery. Thanks to today's Thrillist NY newsletter: http://www.thrillist.com/maps/nycmugged. With looking for work and going into NYC for interviews, it's a guarantee that I'll seek out a coffee bar/cafe with wi-fi to park, plug-in and surf the want ads. Since Starbucks has wifi, and I've got Boingo wireless (http://www.boingo.com/) I just plug in the zip code of where I am and let my Blackberry tell me where to go.

However, I'm feeling like I ought to give the smaller and independent spots a chance. I just don't know where they are, and I'm always ending up somewhere that's new to me. That's exciting but that also means I just don't know the layout. The trick is finding out where the hell they are.

This is where NYC Mugged can help a newb. For me, getting coffee or tea is a waste of money if I don't have wifi and a place to plug in the laptop. I'm hoping this will guide me to those spots. If you're not tethered to your laptop like I am, you'll have more of a range. This is a great idea.

So onward with more caffeinated wi-fi Internet surfing!

The blog from the dirty foreigners who are quarantined because of N1H1 virus fears in South Korea.

I've got to say, it's crap like this that does make me happy I'm not there anymore.

Last I checked the virus originated in Mexico! So unless these folks are showing symptoms and/or were there or in one of the cities/regions where it's been reported, what's the fuss?

Sometimes the folks in power in the ROK can be so dumb. (Okay, yes, the USA has it's dumb leader moments too...we just had 8 years of it.)

Okay, Teacher's Day was last Friday in Korea. It always caught me by surprise when I was there, so it's no surprise it's any different now that I'm away. I always thought this was a great day and something we in the States should be envious of.

It really is such a simple and nice way to say "thanks" to the people who work so hard to teach.

Click over, read more and please help Eric.

He's uninsured and needs a heart transplant. Petition Senator Reid and members of the US Congress to get him on the list.

Thanks so much.

As yet another uninsured American, I think this is one of the most serious issues out there. Our system is flawed and needs to change, NOW.

OMG. This scares the crap out of me and I'm not even famous. But really. Really?
