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.
Advertising agencies like Deutsch in New York (named by Ad Week as "Interactive Agency of the Year" in 2002) are experimenting with entertaining Web sites that promote products subtly. Site visitors sometimes are not even aware of which products or brands are being touted. Among the best-known examples: SubservientChicken.com (Burger King), Slothmore.com (Best Buy), DigitalJoy.com (Microsoft & Intel), and ComeClean.com (Method soaps).
