I overheard two conversations at Sweet & Vicious on Spring St. last night in which individuals were talking about website investment opportunities. One was a site for "financial management social networking" and the other for "music sharing social networking". For the love of God people. Please shut up. Stringing together the buzz-words of three years ago, purchasing a domain, and hiring an outsourced Indian developer to build you a flash(har)y website doesn't mean that anyone is going to give a shite. I'm pretty sure that the future of innovation doesn't begin in bars filled with privileged 20-somethings looking to make a quick buck, however - so I won't take what I overheard to represent the future of technology. --
I've spent a lot of time listening to sleepy southern/alt-country type stuff so far this summer. Lots of Wilco, My Morning Jacket, Mojave 3, Iron & Wine, Drag The River, Crooked Fingers, Sun Kil Moon, Centro-matic, etc. etc. Strange that it comes at a time in which I'm missing my first Insubordination Records Fest in four years. Am I really getting old?
