New York City Devours Los Angeles Alive
The following is a possibly entertaining but highly unedited rant, thank you:
Brooklyn, NY: The inner-sanctum of Hipster-dom, along with it's spiritual annexes; Austin, Minneapolis, Seattle, Hollywood etc. tends to house avenues and streets that bleed fresh creative explorations before vulturous bacterias grow within and feed off of the collective right-brain hemorrhages. Well, maybe not Hollywood, anymore.
Hollywood seems to have been reduced to having it's heart valves that used to gush blood for the sake of flowing become clogged with festering deleterious dyssocial disease long-time go.
The reasons for why Hollywood, unlike some other metropolises that house a constant, age-old war of what reduces down to Jedi versus Sith, has chosen to become a breeding pen of cultural ouroboros remains unclear.
iPhone as a global subway navigator
(metropoliphone.com)
MetropoliPhone is a simple web app for the iPhone that contains subway maps from different cities worldwide.
It turns the often clumsy task of getting a decent subway map on your phone into something easy, quick and useful. Once you open a map you can zoom/pan it with the usual gestures of the iPhone's touchsreen.
The compiled maps are mostly from the metropolitan transit authority websites of each city.
More city subway maps are expected to be added as well as bus maps.
You might actually find this useful in your city or when you travel.
The project was done in DIY style by Carlos J. Gomez de Llarena.
