...when you put together the amount of time they spend going from one site to another, it's probably about the same length of time it takes to read the front page of the New York Times. At the same time, online personalization, customization, and the Tivo-ing of content allows users to put together the Daily Me. Wouldn't you want to subscribe to the Daily...
...high culture, not low. In his early 20s, Welles wouldn?t have considered for one moment seeming less mature or intelligent than he was. He didn?t play to the groundlings; he figured they would climb up to meet him. He and Houseman would fool them into think-ing enlightenment was entertainment.

...Road. Chock-full of Korean restaurants, the area is also long on live music. While rock 'n' roll still rules the scene, Beijing's punks are trying to recreate the 1977 they never knew, with sweaty, muscled guitarists screaming unintelligible, over-amplified lyrics to an equally sweaty, pogo-ing audience. For hard rock at one of the city's most active venues, try Get Lucky, which has concerts every weekend featuring some of the Beijing underground's best and brashest. To find out who is performing, call (86-10) 6429-9109. Looking for punk acts? Head...
