Last week, I promised our awesome friend Scott that we would round up all of the NPR people who actively use Twitter and post links here. This is how it works: I’m going to start a list of NPR twitter-ers (tweeters? twits?) that will be updated every so often with links to relevant Twitter accounts. […]
A friend brought this to our attention:
Unlike 34,368 other Twitter users, we don’t follow @hotdogsladies; he seems far less inclined to shake the haters off than the fans, but once in a while, he’ll go on an insight spree.
This is pretty awesome, but we’re still not following.
Besides, it’s inaccurate. Robert Siegel doesn’t host All Things […]
Good morning, everybody.
So yesterday, the Bryant Park Project got canceled. I’m sure you heard about that. If you’re just joining us and are wanting to hurl a few pebbles at the NPR Goliath, go here.
Yesterday morning, I heard that BPP was canceled via their Twitter feed and fired off a rather spiteful post after […]
I just got off the phone with Kerry; she’d left in a huff after writing the previous post, full of vitriol and good points.
She took the just-announced cancellation of NPR’s “The Bryant Park Project” personally. I suppose that’s good; it means I didn’t do something horrible right before waking up.
You see, Kerry works in New […]
Over on my personal Twitter stream, I’ve set up Twitterfeed to run the RSS feed from my Last.fm profile. It finally started working today, as I was listening to podcasts.
From Beckyrother’s reply on up, all these tweets owe their existence to this last episode of “Radio Lab” that came through the feed. There’s a lot […]
Over on our Twitter account, we’ve been following the Laura C. and all of the lovely people at the Bryant Park Project.
For the last few weeks, every morning, there’s some kind of post about the construction that’s happening on the floor above them. Ok, it’s not so much the construction as it is a particularly […]
So, we trust NPR’s editors to make us sound a little smarter than usual, cutting just enough “ums” and “ahs” to boost our perceived intelligences just barely, but there are still some things we wish we had said when being interviewed by the remarkably friendly Laura Conaway, of the Bryant Park Project.
After the jump, a […]
So, over on my personal Twitter, I said something stupid. And “The Bryant Park Project,” the NPR program it was directed to, responded. I promised them a photo of where Jeff Buckley died, as a response to a recent story they did.
In somewhat small glory, here’s the picture:
Click for full size. This is shot […]
My ex-girlfriend bought me the sixth season of “The West Wing” for my birthday last year. I finally got around to sitting down to it.* It’s the season in which they introduce Matt Santos, the character who will, by the end of the season, I’m sure, become the Democratic presidential candidate.
You better believe there’s […]

NPR does social media better than New Facebook
I’ve been hearing about NPR’s new social networking feature for a while now, thanks to its progenitor, the talented and affable Andy Carvin.
Today, I realized I couldn’t wait any longer. Given that we know that a large portion of our readership is employed by or married to someone employed by NPR, I feel like I’m […]
