  1. Smooth relaunch of http://chicagotribune.com. Very few "New site sucks" messages. But it's early.
  2. Less social networking this summer, more lounging with newspaper. So for my bookmarks, check the recycling bin out back.
  3. Talent and guile lifted Michael Jackson from mean circumstances to his own exquisite prison. Who can't relate to that?
  4. Two absolutely cinematic local news items escaped my notice till I saw them in print: http://digg.com/users/rynk
  5. Cultural Center show makes case for John McCutcheon as deft Progressive Era draftsman and satirist. Even if Injun Summer is there too.
  6. Google Wave is scary. It's billed as next-gen email but the demo plays more like a cross between Facebook and Newsgate.
  7. Searching for Szymanowski (think Ravel in Poland) after a piano recital at Chicago Cultural Center. Audience kept applauding too soon.
  8. La Nueva Mega 955 o Smooth Jazz 95.5: ¿Quien est muy macho? http://www.wnua.com/main.html
  9. I appreciate colleagues who ask "Why not?" Even when I have a pretty good idea why not.
  10. Thanks @bdav126 for passing on Springsteen's Chicago set list. Watch the Boss cover of Mony Mony on his website: http://tr.im/lCFk
  11. Byrds frontman Roger McGuinn was a charmer Friday at the Old Town School of Folk Music. Here's a curio from his website: http://tr.im/lyws
  12. Publishers court Web book reviewers with random freebies. Would they check Google citations first? http://www.goodreads.com/giveaway
  13. NRA Show (Restaurant, not Rifle) at McCormick Place has an events/exhibitors blog. Nice mugshot of ABC7's Steve Dolinsky. http://tr.im/lopF
  14. It's twue, it's twue. I've joined the journalism twibe at http://twibes.com/Journalism.
  15. Location in the media: Restaurateur sets table for 1924 W. Chicago : 1924 W. Chicago Restaurate.. http://tinyurl.com/qgb7qq
  16. Oddly similar presentations @ChicagoIxDA meetup on corporate forecasting and Burger King kids' games. http://twitter.com/designkitchen
  17. Springsteen Chicago requests: Trapped, Candy's Room (a 4th higher), Mony Mony (ad lib), encore Rosalita. 3 hours. Where's Patti?
  18. AP editors @headlineclub meetup compared news bulletins to tweets. Wonder what Twitter and the AP will end up charging their subscribers.
  19. Thoughts on Winchester restaurant vote from @PerrineKnight: http://tr.im/kHTi
  20. Says here I'm a "tweep" in 60622. At least it's not a twerp. http://localtweeps.com
