Two weeks ago, I had a call out to my readers who reside in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston to partake in a survey for an article I was writing for The Dorchester Reporter. Well, the article is out in the latest edition of the Dot Reporter, on newsstands now.

The Cash Train

June 4, 2009

While hopping on a Red Line train to Porter Square to meet up with the Boston Sports Fan, Mr. Joshua Gansie, I noticed the T seemed to be broadcasting a victory message alerting us that it has finally solved all of its budget woes.

May 22, 2009

This past Tuesday, I gave a presentation about The 42nd Estate at the monthly business plan meeting of the Boston Young Entrepreneurs. There was a pretty solid turnout (I’m a terrible judge of these things but I’d say at least 30 people were in attendance) and a ton of awesome feedback.
