Speakin' Geek: Why No "Google Happenings"?
Seems like I have a lot on my mind while driving... I need more co-stars to make this stuff interesting...
Been thinking a lot recently about how there seems to be no "events" search -- no "Google Happenings." Many of the major search engines now have local search, but that isn't cross referenced with time. I think it would be useful to be able to aggregate, search, and sort events, and a simple events markup might really go a long way if it were implemented and widely adopted.
The end clip is Marc Canter at a gathering prior to Vloggercon.
After posting this, I noticed CivicSpace is hard at work developing something similar to what I'm talking about.
And then 2 minutes after that, I discover Upcoming.org. Hallelujah!

Community Garden: 6th St. and Ave. B
Walking around the Lower East Side today. Discovered this strange urban garden with a surreal tower of lonely stuffed animals. It kind of looked like the relics of Coney Island after some kind of disaster. Kind of cool though....

Walking in New York with Ryanne Hodson and Michael Verdi
Ryanne Hodson and Michael Verdi are interviewing videobloggers about their process. We sat down for a conversation and then I demonstrated my process for creating videoblog entries.
Videoblogging about videoblogging.... so meta.

Liza gets the scoop
Liza DeGuia, Plum TV's ace reporter in the Hamptons, always gets the scoop for her "What's Fresh" segment. This week she's got the gory details on a beached whale in Southampton.
Word to the wise... do not attempt to remove a beached whale with dynamite.

I just didn't think it would happen so soon...
Some videobloggers are getting noticed more quickly than others, as Yury Gitman and I discovered in Providence, RI.
