About this weblog
Here we'll report daily on the latest tech and business developments in New York City. Impossible we concede: comprehensive coverage of the city's every story. What we hope you'll find: tips, tidbits and perspectives you won't find elsewhere. As well as unique insights, original interviews and more that should be of interest to New York's vibrant community of technologists and those who track, invest in and report on them.
A "disgruntled litigant" in a landlord-tenant dispute in New York City Civil Court took justice into her own hands. She posted a picture of the housing court judge on eBay and offered him for sale to the highest bidder. While the judge was "outraged" at the act, other eBay bidders apparently were not -- the auction attracted 6,400 hits and 21 different bidders over a four-day period. After finding out about the sale, though, eBay promptly took down the posting.
