Ruh roh. The dreaded Real World: Brooklyn is on the move again. The Brooklyn Paper reports today that due to slow renovations at the BellTel lofts, the downtown BK building that MTV had originally eyed as housing for the seven vodka-infused strangers, the producers have settled on a new spot. Now the cast will likely be housed at Pier 41 in Red Hook, already the home of the legendary Fairway grocery store and the new, megalopolis IKEA. (IKEA has furnished the RW houses for many a season. Easy moving for the pre-production crew, at least!) “I’d rather have another Ikea,” said a resident when asked about the impending storm of camera crews and drunken braying. Reportedly the exact address of the building is 204 Van Dyke St., so if you live nearby, shutter your windows and blood your doors, because the Lord's wrath is on its way. Luckily, though, you ought to get a pretty clear idea fairly quickly of where the gaggle of idiots will be hanging out, because MTV usually signs preemptive filming waivers from one or two bars/restaurants before shooting so they don't have to worry about getting clearance at a bajillion different places. So find out which two bars those are, and avoid them like the plague for the next six months or so. Come on up to Park Slope in the meantime. We have strollers! And a park! And, uh, a slope! ...

Red Hook: We can see why people here don't want The Real World to come to their hood, though it probably will. But why would one guy say he'd rather have another Ikea? Would you really pick two massive Ikeas in the same neighborhood over a temporary MTV colonization? Are we reading too much into a throwaway quotation? [ Brooklyn Paper via Gothamist ] Bushwick: Kim Hastreiter, of Paper magazine, we must say we agree with BushwickBK: This anthropological jaunt of yours to Bushwick, in which you use the word "hipster" at least three times (don't you know that they're called scruffles now?), makes you sound pretty tired and square. And we're also a bit ashamed to admit that some sick part of us thrills to the nasty neocon, pro-gentrification instincts of BushwickBK. [ PaperMag via BushwickBK ] Chelsea: Good luck to the West 16th Street co-op dwellers who are bucking the creation of a twenty-story condo-hotel right behind them, on West 15th Street. We're not taking sides, but we're just saying that the big project has already bought the air rights from the adjacent Catholic school and the community board's signed off on it, too. [ Curbed ] East Village: Neighbors of the bar Heathers, on East 13th Street, are apparently still complaining about the noise level, though the owner, Heather herself, appears to be keeping mum on the issue.

I just picked this book up to help me through forms based authentication and setup. My friend Stacy Draper wrote the chapter on forms based authentication, so it was a no-brainer to read Stacy's methods rather than futzing with it myself. It took me an hour to read through the chapter and set it up. There's some other great topics in there too, so check out the table of contents and add it as a special-case book to your library.

It's the near future and the planet is in crisis. Unheeded warnings of an impending oil shortage have become reality. This was the premise of World Without Oil, an alternate reality game (ARG), which asked players to react to a plausible vision of the future and find ways in which to solve it. The aim, says the game's California-based creator Ken Eklund, was to help people get ready, "if not for this crisis, then for something similar. We wanted to launch a cooperative discourse on the web, focused on a serious social issue," he says. ARGs have frequently been used to promote TV programmes, games, films and other products, or else have had their costs absorbed by the sale of supporting merchandise. When World Without Oil launched in April 2007, it broke new ground by using the genre to simulate a Real-World problem rather than spreading marketing buzz. Funded by America's Corporation for Public Broadcasting and presented by Independent Television Service (ITVS), it highlighted the genre's potential for use as an educational or change-making tool. "It was like purposefully putting yourself in panic mode," says World Without Oil player Chantalle Draycott, 22, an executive assistant from Toronto, Canada. "It's one thing to play a game and pretend that it's Real, but quite another to actually see it staring you in the face." Playing to your strengths An ARG is an interactive narrative in which players work together to solve puzzles a ...
