Boston.com ain’t just the website for the Globe anymore. It’s a multi-faceted multi-media platform. It’s a portal for all things Boston. Or at least, that’s where they’re going
Judging by Hackday, their event coming up on the 25th-27th, Boston.com has bought the promise of the web along with the method and the madness of the tech community.
So, attention developers, Boston.com wants YOU
Join them and your fellow tech superstars to build new apps, pitch ideas, get creative and come up with the next great web tool that we’ll all be using in 2012. I’m no tech superstar, but I’ll be there so come say hello.
For more information and to register, please see here.
Also, we recommend taking a look at beta.boston.com, Boston.com’s test platform. You can try out all the new things they’re working on and provide feedback. We particularly like Localocracy.
Yes. It may seem like a contradiction, but it’s really just pure awesomeness. Or as one friend recently told me, “That sounds bleepin’ magnificent!”
As an avid yogi, I’ve been stretching and “OMing” for over three years now. It has not only helped me physically, but most importantly it has kept me sane. My fellow yoga lovers can attest to its benefits. I mean, Boston life can be stressful at times (especially when the Pats drop out of the playoffs after a rock star season). However, I do realize there is a population of folks that either think it’s overrated or too slow for their liking. If you’re an aerobics junkie, then it makes sense that yoga may not be your thing. But, I challenge you to try Hip Hop Yoga. Actually, I encourage everyone, especially the pro yoga people, to give it a try. Yoga is more than zen meditation and cross legs. It’s quite a workout. And I mean WORKOUT. If I use capital letters, I mean business.
I went this past Friday night to a class at my favorite studio ever, All One Yoga on Commonwealth Avenue, and I am hooked. You start with a warm up and then rock out to Rihanna, Jay Z, and all of their friends. It’s fast-paced and I guarantee that you will sweat (A LOT), but you will feel great afterward. And you might even have fun during.
Until next time…

p.s. I’d love to hear your opinions, positive and negative. Do you have a passion for the OM? Or would you rather P90X it up?
