Updates...

A couple quick one's for you...

• Thanks to everyone who came out on Tuesday. Photos from the RES Party are now online. We're taking a party-hosting break for a bit to plan some really fun stuff for late may and June but if you are interested in being a part of it, or interested in us putting an event together for you, holler.

• HELP US! It's almost summer and that means we get real busy and our volunteer staff switches over. If you are an altruisitic soul and want to help keep FreeNYC alive then get in touch with us. We are looking for writers, photographers, code demons, DJs, or anyone else with talent to spare.

• Be our MySpace friend... we have low self esteem and need your vote of confidence.
