- D.U.M.B.O. Art Under the Bridge Festival® is an annual art festival organized by the Dumbo Arts Center in New York City. I have lived in Dumbo for the past 6 years, and it is only until very recently that I don't get a confused look from New Yorkers when I told them where I live.

It encompasses two sections; one located between the Manhattan and Brook… Read article

Yahoo Pipes: Meta Search Alerts Digest 1255087140|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- Since publishing Meta Search Alerts (Yahoo Pipes) (Flickr screenshot / SML Pro Blog / SML Wiki) back in 2007, it has become to most popular pipe ever created. It even popped onto ReadWriteWeb's The Ultimate Yahoo Pipes List in 2008. And perhaps even more bizarre was discovering that somehow CNet had stuck a software publisher profile for me on Download.com earlier this year! SML Thank You!!!Meta Search Alerts was originally created for my own vanity searches, but then I started using it on SML W… Read article

New York City Subway LED Signage 1254067020|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- I was riding the M train last week and I spotted this new LED signage system. I am not sure how new they are as I have not seen them before, but then since I mostly travel on F train (or actually mostly cabs...), I don't know if these are really spanking new or just that I have not been riding on the line. The photograph alone does not show how it is a superior improvement to the previous system, so I did a video of it to show you how it works:New York City Subway Signage / 2009-09-23 / SML from… Read article

SML Thank You / 2009-09-25 / SML 1253901540|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- Today is my birthday so naturally I am getting greetings all over the globe. This is my thank you card to all of you!I am a believer in thanking people.

I started a blog called SML Thank You (http://thankyou.seeminglee.com) a while back but it was getting a bit challenging to maintain. It also become a bit insane to keep too many blogs so I… Read article

Synergy: an unfocused approach to learning about oneself 1253829600|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- A lot of people prefer web destinations to have a very specific focus, but it appears that I am inherently an unfocused person, and therefore my web destinations also are rather unfocused.In the beginning, SML Pro Blog was just the SML Blog, and it contains pretty much everything that my life contains, until I am getting some negative feedbacks from professional colleagues who wish not have their photos appear next to blog posts relating to my gay activities, which is when SML Gay Blog was born.… Read article

- Actually these are photography disguised as paintings. I have always wanted to paint but I lack the drawing skills so I try my best to create what I wish to do through the lens of my camera. Most of these also exist in my abstract photography set because they are abstract by nature.

Slow Photography at Sunday LES NYC 1253791920|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- Thanks to the wonderful and fabulous Julien Aleksandres (Flickr:DitMartian), I went to Sunday LES' opening reception for a group show titled Slow Photography:The phrase, "slow photography," might conjure images of large format cameras or glass plate techniques; even the idea of loading film may seem slow considering the efficient speed in which photographic images are created today. However, another connotation may not allude to a technology so much as it does a sensibility — an … Read article

TwitterFeed = Great RSS to Twitter Tool 1253785320|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
- TwitterFeed (Twitter:twfeed) is a useful service which pumps RSS feeds to your Twitter account. I tested out the server a couple of weeks ago because I wanted a separate feed for some more focus tweets, namely, for SML BW (Flickr Group / FriendFeed / Twitter), SML Fine Art (Flickr Group / FriendFeed / Twitter) and SML Graphic Design (Flickr Group / FriendFeed / Twitter).Another reason I'm doing this is because, oh, my friends on Twitter was complaining that I tweet too much.
