Nice design: New Orleans real-time flight status

He has this show, Feasting on Asphalt. They’re traveling up the Mississippi. He was in the CBD, outside of Mulate’s, looking for an authentic place, which he couldn’t find. He then made three mistakes which could only have come from a widespread lack of knowledge of New Orleans food on the part of his whole crew:
I’m glad he was in New Orleans, of course, but how can a Food Network host not know the very basics about one of America’s greatest food cultures?
Also, it’s nutria.
Flickr: Things to do during JazzFest not involving $45 tickets.
Sunday, April 29th, 2007I have started a Flickr photo pool for the consolation of those who can’t or won’t go to JazzFest this year due to the $45 tickets. I’ve started it off with some pictures, so if you aren’t at JazzFest and you’d like to be, join up and contribute some pictures!
He’s a Chef and Molecular Biologist.
Tuesday, July 8th, 2003From Brett Anderson’s review of Sara’s of New Orleans.
“Chef Ganesh Ayyengar, who’s from Bombay, is a molecular biologist by training, a fact he uses to explain why he bristles at the confines of traditional Indian cooking. A scientist at heart, he’s temperamentally inclined to experiment.”
Oh my….I MUST meet him. I didn’t know anyone like me existed.
Audioblogging
Sunday, February 16th, 2003EDIT: 02/12/07 - I wrote this almost exactly 4 years ago. Podcasting was years from becoming a word.
I wonder how long it will be before this technology is combined with news aggregation and text-to-speech to output RSS feeds to audio…
I really like this idea. I know it’s geeky, but I could so use this. Imagine driving down the road and hearing updates to your favorite pages on your radio at specified intervals. Of course, you can’t edit the audio once it’s been posted, though you can re-record until you get it right, so if you’re not careful you end up sounding as dorky as I do in the clip. I used to carry a pen and paper around with me, but something about having to translate your thoughts into writing takes away some of the inspiration. I used to keep a mini tape recorder in my bag, but I never really used it because having to stop and dig it out wasn’t convenient enough. This is perfect, since I always carry my phone with me. I can see my private page filling up with audio posts. I wish the audio was better, though.
I just came back from the Circle Bar, where I heard Hot Club of New Orleans for the first time. Instead of writing about how cool it was, I could let the ultra-low key jam band speak for itself.
