Have you been checking out Demetri Martin's Trendspotting reports on the Daily Show? Our personal fave is his look at the Myspace phenomona [see above]. Other topics have included: life coaching, wine and XBox360.

Demetri has some shows at UCB starting tonight, and for the next few Wednesdays. The advance tickets are sold out, but there will be tickets at the door - so get there early! If you miss out, check out his MySpace account, where he writes haikus and how-to's, including this one:

how to be a rapper:

1. be tough.

2. be braggy.

3. don't use helping verbs.

Seriously, one of our favorite New York comedians.
