Gio­vanni Bologna’s famed Fly­ing Mer­cury “cap­tures the Greek mes­sen­ger of the gods speed­ing through the skies.”  Mer­cury is depicted wear­ing a winged peta­sus on his head and winged san­dals which give him speed in flight. He car­ries the caduceus in his hand, the magic wand given to him by Apollo that has come to sym­bol­izes the prac­tice of medicine.

Some­thing I truly love about New York is that it is a “pedes­trian friendly” city. Not only it is much faster (and cheaper) to walk some­where instead of tak­ing a train or a cab, it is also a good exer­cise. Keep walking.

We have been try­ing inno­v­a­tive ways to make our con­tent more visu­ally appeal­ing. Here are some of the most recent fea­tures that you might not know.

• The Tag Cloud is great. The more we write about a topic the big­ger it gets in the “cloud.” Sim­ply click on one word to access the most rel­e­vant articles.

• The Event Cal­en­dar (on your right) is very easy to share, sub­scribe to, and down­load (Google Cal­en­dar, iCal, etc). The Col­ored Cat­e­gories are now much eas­ier to read. This is a brand new edition.

• Visual Serendip­ity is our ongo­ing weekly series of images taken with a cell­phone. You can access all the images by sim­ply search­ing for “Visual Serendipity”

• We have been on Tum­blr for a long time. We love the site’s inter­ac­tion with other pho­tog­ra­phers and blog­gers, as well as the beau­ti­ful look­ing menu of “recent posts.”

• We are part of Bloomberg’s Dig­i­tal Map for Tech Com­pa­nies in New York. Come back tomor­row to learn more about this great project.

• And our Visu­als page keeps grow­ing and chang­ing. We are host­ing our images on Pho­to­Shel­ter and have been very happy with the results.

So, how are we doing? Do you like the graph­ics as much as we do? What can we do bet­ter to improve the site? Talk to us.

After spend­ing a very hot and humid Sun­day after­noon in Cen­tral Park we were look­ing for a restroom, and this is what we found instead. Gotta love this city.

A true serendip­i­tous moment. While walk­ing in Dumbo I saw this unknown girl pos­ing for her friend. I was able to snap only two pic­tures before they were gone. I have no idea what their shoot was about, but I loved the ran­dom geome­tries and the qual­ity of the light.
