The New York Times Pulls "Outside" Content to Customized Homepage via Blogrunner

http://www.beet.tv/2008/12/the-new-york-ti.html
Bloggrunner, a mostly automatic news aggregator owned by The New York Times Company, has been surfacing up related stories from many blogs and news sources (including Beet.TV) to its technology and other pages since last November. In a big step forward in the integration with The Times, links organized by Bloggrunner are now on a new sort of the home page of the paper called Times Extra, the company announced today.

We reported the story of the initial integration last December when I interviewed Blogrunner creator Philippe Lourier. There's been quite a lot of buzz this morning on Read/Write/Web, TechCrunch and other blogs.

I've republished my interview with Philippe, who gives an overview of the platform.

Part II: NBC Nightly News - Surviving Flight 1549 on the Hudson River in New York City

See Part I: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDCauhQ1rGQ

A cool-headed pilot maneuvered his crippled jetliner over New York City and ditched it in the frigid Hudson River on Thursday, and all 155 on board were pulled to safety as the plane slowly sank. It was, the governor said, “a miracle on the Hudson.”

One victim suffered two broken legs, a paramedic said, but there were no other reports of serious injuries.

US Airways Flight 1549, an Airbus A320 bound for Charlotte, N.C., struck a flock of birds just after takeoff minutes earlier at LaGuardia Airport, apparently disabling the engines.

The Airborne Toxic Event - Wishing Well (Lyrics)

For all of you who insist on posting the ‘mescaline change’ I changed it the first time. It’s been changed for a while.

COPYRIGHT: Island Records
Lyrics:
Standing on a bus stop
Feeling your head pop
Out in the night
In the kind of night
Where you want to be out
On the street, on the street
Crawling up the walls
Like a cat in heat

And the air is thin
And it blows through your skin
And you feel like something
Is about to begin
But you don’t know what
And you don’t know when
So you tear at your hair
And you scratch at your skin

You wanna run away, run away
Just get on the ing train and leave today
And it doesn’t matter where you spend the night
You just might end up somewhere in a fight, in a fight
Or calling your room on a concrete shelf
Fighting all alone, with yourself, with yourself
And you just wanna feel like a coin that’s been tossed
In a wishing well, a wishing well
A wishing well, a wishing well
Well you’re tossed in the air
And you fell and you fell
Through the dark blue waters
Where you cast your spell
Like you were just a wish that could turn out well
So you stand on the corner
Where the angels sit
And you think to yourself,
“This is it, this is it
This is all that I have
All I can stand
Is this air in my lungs
And this coin in my hand”
That you tossed in the air
And I fell, and I fell
All the way to the bottom
Of the well, of the well
Like those soft little secrets
That you tell, that you tell
To yourself, when you think
No one’s listening to, well
And the walls spin
And you’re paper-thin
From the haze of the smoke
And the mescaline
The threat of your brow
Under unmade sheets
In your ear with the noise
From the darkest streets
We ran far and wide
You screamed, you cried
You thought suicide was an alibi
But you were always a mess
You were always aloof
Yeah, it’s awful, I guess
But it’s the awful truth
It was truth from the first
To the last words that she read
And she emerged from the dark
Like a ghost in my head
She said, “I haven’t forgot
Any words that you said
I just stare at the clocks
And I cry in my sleep
And I tear up your letters
And I burn them in heaps
And I gather the ashes
In that hole in the ground
Where we fell”
