LOCKHART STEELE — Rounding out an admittedly East Coast-centric day on Valleywag, we emailed a group of NYC internerds and asked them to tell us about the more obscure blogs they're most enjoying these days. (Yes, we're ripping off finding inspiration from Fimoculous blogger Rex Sorgatz's Best Blogs of 2006 You're Not…

LOCKHART STEELE — You might not have heard of the new foodsite Serious Eats yet, but at the rate that noted food journalist Ed Levine is stockpiling blog talent, you probably will sooner or later. (Or, if you choose to keep reading, now! Thirty-second backstory: Levine, recognizing that his vision for a…

LOCKHART STEELE — This here is the rooftop at the Hotel Gansevoort in Manhattan's Meatpacking District. In official photos like this, it looks sedate and dreamy. In real life, it looks something more like these photos—a sort of body-to-body insanity best avoided at all costs. (Noise from the roof is famous for…

LOCKHART STEELE — Why is Zach Nelson smiling? Because he'll soon be able to afford another Bentley or two. Fresh off a glowing Business Week profile, more details leak via TechCrunch about the impending IPO for NetSuite, the business software firm Nelson heads. Today's news: the firm's reportedly going with just…

LOCKHART STEELE — More Valley news! clamor the masses. And with that, linkdump time!

LOCKHART STEELE — Joel Johnson is one of my favorite bloggers. He helmed Gawker gadget blog Gizmodo for a few years, then oversaw all the Gawker tech sites before departing this past summer (damn him) for the greener pastures of Wired's website, where he's again managing bloggers (poor fool).

LOCKHART STEELE — With due respect to Nicholas Butterworth, the New York internet comeback of 2006 has to go to Jeffrey Dachis. Dachis, you may recall (if your brain hasn't permanently suppressed the memories from that weekend in Vegas), started the web design firm Razorfish in the mid-1990s, took it public, rocketed…

LOCKHART STEELE — Seems like just a few weeks ago Valleywag was musing on the subject of The Rollup. (Oh, wait.) Then today's newsprint brings this: social dogooder-cum-softcore pornographer Dov Charney has sold his American Apparel clothing business to the Endeavor Acquisition Corporation, a small, publicly traded…

LOCKHART STEELE — Internet industry life in New York City is different than in the Valley. People here don't listen to podcasts not produced by NPR, and they don't read Scoble. (If they do either, they aren't admitting it.) And the sine qua non press hit for your new webtacular isn't a TechCrunch profile; it's a story…

LOCKHART STEELE — So, Nick Denton's off to London for the holidays, leaving Valleywag in the hands of a mostly random coterie of bloggers for the next week. How best to introduce myself? Luckily, there's an annoying new blogmeme floating around this week. So I'll tag myself, then reveal Five Things Most People…

More on the crash of Yankee pitcher Cory Lidle's plane on the Upper East Side: Deadspin finds this photo of Lidle and his plane, and a quote from his former teammate, Arthur Rhodes, who had this to say about Lidle after he was traded to the Yanks in July: "The only thing Cory Lidle wants to do is fly around in his…

Those zany French electric-supercar builders, Venturi unveiled the newest incarnation of its EV for gearheads, the F tish roadster. The current (heh heh) model sports 31 li-ion batteries, which give it a range of between 100 and 155 miles, depending on the weight of one's foot. The cells can be charged in three to…

Lamborghini introduced a new, limited-edition Murci lago geared toward Italian counts and the countesses who sweat them. It's the LP640 Versace (that's ver-sach-ee, not ver-say-ss), a variant of the company's higher-spec flagship, the one with the 6.5-liter V12, zero-to-60 times in the 3.4-second range, and overall…
