At night, with my Pre


Wish I was more crazy about this Pre right now. Not feeling it. Maybe the apps...will start to work on me.

10 minutes of media

On the subway, on my Peek, I read a few things in the AM: The Daily Beast, NY Times headlines, Dealbook, Ent's NPR headlines, and Accuweather. Email media.

I got beef with beef

BBQs are great and all but I am getting a little over the whole beef thing. I eat very very few steaks or burgers in restaurants and never at home, so industrial beef only only passes these lips in summer. Not sure I want to keep on stacking 'em double high all summer. Eggplant for me!

How my Peek passes 5 min at a time

When I walk my dog (2x daily), I only take leash, keys and Peek (for company). What do I do? I browse Facebook status updates from friends using PeekSocial, explore weather for later with Accuweathers 2x per day weather mail, and browse the NPR headlines courtesy of Ent@retroforth.org. Then I update status using ping.fm and maybe read/write some emails. Taking care of business!

New LIC park is unbelievable

This new waterfront park at LIC's East River coastline is absolutely unbelievable.
 
There are now 'enough' parks in LIC, though there appear to be a whole bunch more in the works.
 
Go 11101.

Tech products of the 6am subways

If all you do is get to work around 10am, ride Metro North, and shuffle on Madison Ave, you are missing some people.
 
On my normal routes, I now see as many Kindles as I saw iPods in 2002-2003. Same for iPhone and Blackberry. I see 3-4 per train car. This means a lot -- I'm getting on when it's full load coming out of Queens. Lots of secretaries and working class adults -- yuppies or postcollege brats. I'm sure those Upper West or Williamsburg lines are nuts.
 
But on the 7 at 6am, it's 75% young males going solo -- probably to some really blue collar gig like busboy, stockroom clerk, deli hand.
 
No kindles. No smartphones. They have iPods now -- a few alternate brands, but definitely iPods. One PSP. Not even a lot of newspapers (the free dalies don't start this early).
 
I also didn't see a single one take out a cell phone at this hour. Maybe it's just early or they aren't exactly playing games on their slider hybrids.
 
Also, there is a homeless person sleeping on the car.
