It has come to our attention that some of you have today off. Isn't that nice? We're sure most of you are spending the day in solemn, patriotic reflection. Others, however, are making insufferable little tweets about how it's a holiday and they're pounding unlimited mimosas at some magical brunch orgy. One New Yorker whose Tweets are "protected" literally Tweeted "hahaah, the people who have to work today #suckers." Please note that this sort of gloating is not particularly appreciated by those of us here in the trenches, toiling to aggregate Tweets from other people working today. These people are the real HEROES:

Video: New York iPhone User Speaks Out
It's been two years since lines wrapped around Apple stores as New Yorkers waited and waited to get their hands on a precious iPhone, but the masses are still unhappy with AT&T. That's right disgruntled iPhone owners: you are not iLone! CNET has gathered some of the complaints about AT&T's service and claims of coverage (one declares "My damn iPhone drops calls about 75 percent of the time inside my house"), and one New Yorker living near JFK airport aired his grievances on YouTube.
Battle of the Outdoor Concert Venues
Over the years more and more outdoor venues have sprung up out of the lush park land and the not-so-lush concrete spaces of New York. From Central Park Summerstage to the Seaport to McCarren Pool (RIP), there's no shortage of outdoor music venues during the summer months. But now the NY Post is pitting them against each other! They say that while Summerstage used to be "a magnet for denizens of the five boroughs, as well as hordes of tourists," its reign may be challenged as people are beginning to voice complaints of it "being too hot, too crowded, too greedy."
