My Parents Were Awesome

One of the coolest blogs to launch recently is My Parents Were Awesome. It was created by Eliot Glazer who wanted to show photos of parents when they were "super-awesome." As he states, "Before the fanny packs and Andrea Bocelli concerts, your parents (and grandparents) were once free-wheeling, fashion-forward, and super awesome."



Anyone can submit a picture of… Continue

My Little Pony Re-Mixed (12 Total)

Edward Scissorhands

What happens when you take a highly popular old school children's toy and mix it with other pop culture figures? Well, you get something as wacky and weird as Mari Kasurinen's My Little Ponies. For those of us that can remember the early 80's, My Little Pony was a cultural… Continue

Something a little kitschy about this..but I like it! My Documents Laptop Case.

Get me to laugh and I'm yours. This laptop case wouldn't make sense to those that don't really use a computer but for the generation who's on it all the time, this is good stuff.

'my document' laptop case $30 at… Continue

My Modern Mondays!: Photographer of the Moment, Robert Ascroft

Usually, on this Monday, I list out three to five examples of some of my favorite modern things. Today, I decided to write about one specific photographer, Robert Ascroft. He established himself in the music world by working as an Art Director and Designer and only by shooting assignments himself did he fall in love with photography. What I enjoy most about his work… Continue

Our first foray into videos. (Eek.) Welcome to My Modern Metropolis!



So we got the Flip camera the other day and I am really impressed with how easy it is to shoot video. No one likes seeing themselves in video (including me) but we figure this would be the next step for us. That way we'll be able to show you small clips of restaurants, hotels, and events! So welcome everyone and see you in video! (This clip will stay in our About… Continue

On the road to self-discovery, what I've learned (so far)

At first I was going to put this post outside theMET but I decided...fuck it...let's keep it here.



1. Life is a journey of self-discovery. Not too long ago I felt as though the floor had slipped under me and that I was left with nothing. Stripped bare, I had to figure out who I was and… Continue

A Little Sappy But Oh So Sweet: An Old Music Video, First Day of My Life by Bright Eyes

Song has been added to the music player.



What I love most about this video is how it doesn't seem staged at all.



Lyrics:

This is the first day of my life

I swear I was born right in the doorway

I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed

They're spreading blankets on the beach



Yours is the first face that I saw

I think I was blind before I met you

Now I don’t know where I am

I don’t know where I’ve… Continue

My Modern Metropolis is Busting its Doors Open: July 28th (Monday) at 8am

As much as the Met has opened up new and exciting opportunities and ideas, it's also given me a fair amount of stress. Putting yourself out to the public is damn scary, I don't care who you are. So as much as I love conquering that fear, I can't help but struggle with it each and every day.



Here are the particular questions that have haunted me these past few weeks:

1. Will I ever feel ready to open up the Met to the public?

2.… Continue

Me? An Ambassador?

Ok, so I guess this is where the self-love comes in (Kara, I am trying).

I wanted to tell you how I became 1 of 100 ambassadors of OneWebDay, 'cause it's quite hilarious.



I wanted to sign up for a social network or Web 2.0 conference, so I was clicking around on websites (this was literally 2 days ago) and happened to come across something about Craig Newmark. I had read about him before but saw that he had a… Continue
