Kids in America

Attended: All Day Buffet's Cause For Drinks which  raised nearly $1000 to help kids at underfunded schools in NYC and Ghana get the school supplies they need to excel this coming year.

Dance:  While listening to Pandora since I am tired of my old music, I heard a song by a French band called Poni Hoax.  This link will take you to their MySpace page, so get ready to boogie!

Newsstand:  Stopped by the Mass Appeal art party tonight, and got a copy of the latest issue which has Actress Melonie Diaz on the cover. Plus, there's a little piece on Heron Preston from Naked Communications.

Busy:  More Chicks and Giggles shows to come in September, a clothing swap, a cupcake baking demo in  October and more.

Data:  I almost forgot that my cousin told me last week that Santi White (AKA Santogold) will be opening for The Klaxons and Bjork on September 24 at MSG. WOW!!!

Barcardz: Social networking for the party people, I guess.

BuddyTV:  If you watch a lot of TV, but you also want to connect online, then this one is for you.

MyTime Hero: It's Myspace for the Boomer set.

The picture above is from HoneyRider.  She takes great pictures!  [BTW, I know that I am not too much of hipster since I found out the hard way that there is a Meserole Avenue and a Meserole St in Williamsburg.]

After getting my MySpace profile hacked for the second time, I cancelled my account. MySpace and I are DONE. For the 300-something MySpace friends, I say farewell. I might try Oomph.net.

In other social networking news,  I got a new client based on someone reading my LinkedIn profile. Yay!

Lastly, my fellow cupcake bloggers and I have create a CTTC Meetup. We got 18 members so far!
