Songlines

If you're a NYC history maniac like me, you might be interested in the following site:

http://www.nysonglines.com/

It's not the sexiest site ever, but it does a good job of gathering and nuggetifying a lot of information from a whole slew of different resources in interesting ways.

For instance, did you know that two famous hippies were bludgeoned to death just around the corner from my apartment? The same corner where Joe "The Super" Pesci was sentenced by a judge to live in one of his derelict buildings? I didn't.

Or you can just go ahead and read this. But be warned: I've been officially "reading" it for the last three years now.
