“Foursquare, a location-based social network, plans to distribute a new analytics tool and dashboard in the coming weeks that will give business owners access to a range of information and statistics about visitors to their establishments.” —

Smart. The easier it is for an IRL business to track conversions the easier it is for them to commit to internet-based promotions.

New Museum Ethics Quagmire Gets Its Own Unofficial Ad Campaign

With its combination of horrible shows and its obvious ethics problems the NuMu has become an utter embarrassment.

“Ad blocking software works because there are telltale technical cues that a site isn’t paying the same level of attention to ad content as they are to editorial content (whereas print magazines pay more attention to ad content–that’s how they work).” — Rob Sayre’s Mozilla Blog - Why Ad Blockers Work

man bartlett: 24h #class action -

So Next Wednesday starting at 5pm, at Winkleman Gallery in Chelsea, New York City, we will, together, create a 24 hour group intervention. Your presence is humbly requested at any point, for any length of time. At 5pm, Thursday March 11th, we will pop every skinny balloon that we have blown up during our time together.

Described as an “exercise in futility and one of joyous absurdity.”

Can’t wait to experience it.

20x200’s new print by William Powhida, fittingly titled “Why You Should Buy Art,” was JUST released & you can buy one now! HURRY, since I’m an impatient guy and I can’t wait to call him a sell-out…literally!
