I actually missed one of the most exciting events in New York City this week, Wired NextFest, but I can go on Sunday to see the end of the show - I may do that. Look at what I missed. Well, I can take my son with me and spend the day there on Sunday….maybe I’ll do it. If so, I’ll write about it here and in ArtNewYorkCity.com, and possibly, in Smartmobs.com too.
