Want to help San Francisco by cleaning up? Here’s a great DIY on how to host your own park clean-up in SF.
You don’t have to wait for Earth Day to do some green good around your neighborhood. Host a Park Clean-Up any time of year (weather permitting, of course) and improve your local hang out while making friends with your neighbors. Do it right and you’re sure to get some free coffee too.
TOPR, a freestyle group based out of SF Bay Area, will be doing a live show at Amoeba Music in San Francisco on May 30th.
A freestyle master who first started rhyming in 1988, TOPR burst onto the San Francisco scene in 1993 as Top Ramen. Quickly gaining notoriety in battle circles, he consistently embarrassed the competition with his quick-witted lyrics and scathing delivery.
TOPR joined the the Hip Hop collective Earthlings in 1996 alongside local favorites Safahri, Boac and D.J. Bootleg, he helped build the crew’s reputation as dynamic live performers opening up for such hip hop legends as KRS ONE, LL Cool J, De La Soul, Kool Keith, Goodie Mob, Mix Master Mike, Z-Trip and many others. The Earthlings also toured as an opening act on national tours with Living Legends, Hieroglyphics and Xecutioners as well as participating in many large hip hop festivals such as the Broke Ass Summer Jam, I.T.F., Lyricist Lounge and headlining their own F*ck Pop Convention.
Well, Rouge, my favorite club in San Fran, is having a party this Thurday. Don’t miss out if and be there!
1500 Broadway St
Zhan Wang, a Beijing-based artist, has re-created downtown San Francisco using cookware. Pretty creative I’d say although the only building I can identify is the TransAmerica building pointing up at the right of the picture.
I am guessing that the spoons at the bottom are the boats at the docks…
Lol… this is more fun than real pictures!
Zhan Wang is among the most respected artists in China, having become world-renown for his stainless steel sculptures of “scholars’ rocks,” the graceful, craggy boulders found in several provinces around China that seem to have been sculpted by natural forces into complex forms worthy of thoughtful contemplation–almost like mental or spiritual landscapes. Collecting these rocks from around China, Wang painstakingly pounds, bends, heats, and molds sections of stainless steel plate across the cloud-like topography of each rock, as if wrapping it in steel–in essence, applying a modern industrial skin to an ancient geologic body. After the steel has been shaped around the rock it is peeled away in sections, welded together as a single unit–a now-hollow duplicate of the rock–and polished to a flawless steel sheen, in some cases almost a mirror finish. The resulting play of light upon their surfaces has the effect of seeming to disembody and even liquefy the steel sculptures, as if they were luminous floating masses or shimmering topographies.
Web 2.0 Expo is here again in San Francisco, a Web 2.0 exhibition featuring all the top Web 2.0 companies. It’s held only once a year so if you are a Web 2.0 geek like me, I highly suggest you attend it. Tomorrow, I will take some pictures and videos from the Web2.0 expo and post it on SFBlogg.
Don’t miss out as this event only happens once a year at Moscone Center and exhibition hall passes are at $100, not too bad for this kind of event.
Here are details:
Web 2.0 Expo San Francisco happens April 22-25, 2008 at Moscone West. Whether you’re new to the Web 2.0 world or an expert or in Ajax, Ruby, tagging, the social graph, user experience, meta-programming, search engine marketing, community building, web operations, user-generated content, building startups from scratch, or “Web2.0-ifying” the enterprise, come to Web 2.0 Expo San Francisco and immerse yourself in the Web 2.0 experience.
Make sure to check out Loft 11 in San Francisco this weekend! Although I won’t make it, I recommend this party for clubbers.

Here’s some videos from Lovefest 2007!
Yes, we were there at SF Lovefest 2007! Yey! You can check out all our photos during the Lovefest 2007 on SFBlogg Flickr.
The tightest part was that there were about 7 or 8 stages, each with its own DJs, right in front of the SF City Hall. We’ve also noticed that some politicians were actually sponsoring this event. I don’t remember the Politician’s name but…we had a great time!
Next year, you better go if you don’t want to miss out on the crazy fun love at Lovefest San Francisco.
We will also show you some cool video clips we took at Lovefest this year.
Want to check out a cool party this Saturday? Mark your calendars for a night in a warehouse. That’s right, Space 550 is a nice medium sized warehouse where you can party without not being able to breath….
Anyways, this is an infamous spot for myself as I used to go here a lot. I do recommended it.
