Hey, y'all.

I don't know how fruitful it'll be, but I'm posting it here as well: I'm looking for war/political photographers to interview as a part of my mini-field work. [link]

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

We are currently (slowly) hammering out final dates in F2F. The top three dates (adjusting for the large numbers of "couldn't make it for June 12-13") then are:

June 26-27 (Providence or Philly; NYC not available)

July 10-11 (NYC, Providence, or Philly)

July 17-18 (NYC, Providence, or Philly)

Is that correct? Please please please speak up in F2F, especially if you are hosting/pimping a city and aren't available for one of the dates your city is listed for. I don't have time to scroll back and find what you said initially, sorry. If it works, I will put this up as the final date choice (everyone picks one date) tomorrow for a final vote. We will then be able to vote on the city.

Final date vote for F2F 2010, winner takes all: Click here to vote.

Poll will be open for three days until 3/21, Sunday.

Reminder:

Poll will be open for three days until 3/21, Sunday. We only have 26 respondents so far, which concerns me since we had 42 on the previous survey.

Side note: I'm also concerned that adding a third date to the mix may have split the vote. June 26-27 is leading substantially at the moment (the only non-NYC weekend), but the two July dates (if added together) equal the exact same number. I didn't add a question about how many people couldn't attend, but I'm concerned about this situation. Anyone who would like to hash this out, please join us in conversation in F2F.

June 26-27 has won the F2F 2010 vote. Head on over to F2F to voice your opinion and ask questions of Philly or Providence hosts.

We are moving in a couple weeks and I am trying to clear out closets. Not quite a hoarder, but I hate throwing away stuff that might be useful. Up for grabs for free to the first one to email me:

Stack of kids software. Typical edu-game varieties that were popular for 90s kids. Most of it probably works. Some of it won't, but I'm not trying each CD. I would say pre-school to 6th grade level stuff. Most say Windows 95(!), some are even DOS. My kids adored this kind of thing. If you think yours might then let me know.

Free to Good Buffista Home: I bought some Proactiv, only to discover that it has benzoyl Peroxide in it, which both my mother and I are crazy allergic to(Only 3% of America is. Lucky us) So if you use Proactiv, I've got bottles of step one and step 3 I can send for the cost of shipping, Let me know at my profile...thanks.

Okay, I bit the bullet and have started a "fan" page on Facebook. It's here: [link]

Should you be so inclined to add me to your list and pimp me further.
