Trying out the Vox crossposter for WordPress
Pete Wood created the Vox Crossposter plugin for WordPress to crosspost over to a Vox blog. Alas, it won't work with old entries or edits until there's an API; but it seems to be nifty nonetheless. I'm trying it out with my Vox blog at susankaup.vox.com.
Concert photos from the first two days at the NEMO Music Festival
I've got a bunch of the photos at Flickr taken during the first two days of the NEMO Music Festival. I'll be wandering around more shows tonight; but will probably spend most of the evening at Harper's Ferry to see The Long Winters and The Blizzard of 78. Dig into the rest of ...
First day of NEMO concert photos … almost
Last night I went to five clubs around Boston and Cambridge to see and take photos of bands performing at NEMO Music Festival showcases. I saw Plumerai at the Paradise Lounge for a very early 6:30 show and then went to Cambridge to see bands in Central Square at the Middle East Upstairs, Middle East...
2006 NEMO Music Festival in Boston this week
I'll be running around town the next three nights taking photos (and maybe some podcasting tidbits) at a bunch of the NEMO Music Festival concert showcases. Keep an eye on Exploit Boston's website. If you'll be at NEMO taking photos, join us at the event photo group at Flickr. Bostonist will be writing reviews/words about...

The Boston Rocks! group I host at HeyLetsGo is meeting up tonight to see The Bleedin Bleedins and other bands who will be performing at a NEMO showcase at TT The Bear's Place in Cambridge's Central Square. If you want to join us, please do! We'll be gathering outside TT's at about 9PM.
Vox at Vox
I went to Six Apart's excellent shindig for their new Vox blogging service at Vox Populi in Boston tonight. I was a little late to learn about Vox so someone else had already scooped up sooz.vox.com. If you've got an account over there, you can add me as a neighbor and/or friend ala susankaup.vox.com. For...
Gonzalo Silva and music serendipity
Gonzalo Silva was busking underground at one of the subway stations in NYC this summer when someone waiting for the train listened and bought a CD. The new fan, Sao Paulo director Jarbas Agnelli, decided to use a song of Gonzalo's to put together a video from travels around NYC. It's stunning. I was really...
What’s up in the Boston tech, web and mobile startup world
If you're curious (like me) to know what's going on in the Boston tech/web startup world, the RSVP list for the upcoming Web Innovators Group meeting is a good place to wander through and then RSVP for yourself. The next event hosted by David Beisel of Masthead Ventures is happening on Monday, September 25th at...
Nouvelle Vague
Yesterday morning a friend suggested we see Nouvelle Vague's concert at the Paradise later that night. I had never heard of them; but from what Susan said about the band, it sounded interesting. They do bossanova inspired covers of 80s new wave songs. If they weren't such talented musicians and singers it would have been...
Photos from the HeyLetsGo Party in Boston on Lansdowne Street
HeyLetsGo hosted a huge, free party last night at four connected clubs on Lansdowne Street. The party was originally supposed to happen at Fenway Park; but there were worries about rain so the shindig moved across the street. They kept the ballpark theme with a speed pitching contest, batting contest, popcorn, pretzels and hotdogs. Boston...
MarksGuide to the professional networking scene in Boston
Mark Christian was at Podcamp on Saturday and told me about his new weblog called MarksGuide. There are lots (and lots) of networking events in Boston. Mark attends at least a couple events a week and he's started to share info about these events at MarksGuide. While we were talking about Podcamp, we remembered that...
The Flickr Photo Map Love Continues
Flickr's new photo map is amazing. The thing that would have made it more useful for event photos on Exploit Boston's event photo group map is the ability to sort by date. And hey, guess what, they added that feature and you can do that now. The filter option at the bottom of the map...
