I just boarded the plane (flying Jet Blue out of Burbank where I was spending Easter) and figured I’d post a quick update.  One little rant—and maybe someone will comment on this and explain—but why the hell don’t domestic airlines offer internet access?!  I know the technology is there as I’ve used it before on international flights.  If a certain airline offered internet access, even at a fee, I don’t think I’m the only one that would go way out of their way to book with that airline as much as possible.  Especially for coast to coast flights—this is six hours in the plane. 

Anyway, I’ll be staying in Brooklyn with an old friend from home who now lives in New York so it sounds like I’ll have a 15-20 minute train ride each morning to get into the city.  I have no experience with New York so just finding my way around will probably lead to some interesting stories. I’ve already seen a couple of Yahoo! backpacks and a PRWeb t-shirt, so I know I’m on the right flight   I’m looking forward to providing some coverage of what I hope will be a great event.
