A journey from Edinburgh to Skye where Danny finds some of the most unique and remote 'street' riding along the way.
Alright this is so awesome I had to show it to you. Girl Talk + sporadic dancing in the streets + a pastel Starter jacket? I think I need to meet these people.

The Staten Island Ferry is the unlikely setting of an insanely magical new dance video.
And yet, as a (semi) curious crowd looks on, these dancers frolic and writhe on the Ferry's deck and even on the station's escalators. But who are these dancing kings and queens?They are a rotating group, led by improvisational dancer Anne Marsen, who are in the process of creating a long form video to accompany dance party favorite Girl Talk's latest album, All Day. The video will eventually be album length and feature dance scenes in recognizable places all over the city. They plan on finishing the piece in the spring of 2011 and screening it in public (as well as posting it online).
The dancing is very freeform and often silly, but most enjoyable is how the New Yorkers around them barely notice this stranger in plainclothes suddenly bursting with dance.

Ellen loved their heartwarming cover of "Home" as much as everyone else, and so she invited Jorge Narvaez and 6-year-old Alexa to do it live. Alexa kills it! And, of course, it's still adorable.
I often fantasize about the blog post I will write describing my love for New York. Yes, from time to time, I tease you with silly iphone photos that hastily show the little things I love about this city. But, no no…I’m talking a mother of all posts…a pièce de résistance of Glitter Me This, a pillar of my writing career. This will be a full-blown love letter to NYC that I will then obviously submit to New York Magazine. They’d take one read of the literary work of genius and declare that I must work for them. Tomorrow. Not a day to be wasted. Obviously.
How do you keep the romance alive in a long-distance relationship? Frequent visits? Marathon phone calls? Love letters? Well, a creative guy named Walter C. May has upped the ante for sweet gestures with “I Hope This Gets To You,” a song and music video he made with the Daylights. The tune is catchy, and the video is simple but cool (and a bit inexplicably creepy): hands come together to form faces mouthing the lyrics. May is hoping the clip makes it to his girlfriend, who’s away at grad school, solely through the power of the viral internet. Since we heartily approve of the project, we thought we’d help him out.
On Melancholy Hill - NYC Lights from Chateau Bezerra on Vimeo.
Chateau Bezerra used the neon signs around New York City—and his deft editing skills—to make this stunningly simple music video scored to the Gorillaz track "Melancholy Hill." Midtown Manhattan never looked so good—or sad.
