1. DIY Books and zines. "The growing possibilites of quality digital printing and self publishing are really exciting...Everyone, make a book! Why not? I recommend lulu.com."


2. Dashwood Books. "Owner and operator of the best photo book store in New York (and probably the world), David Strettell is as generous with his photo/book knowledge as he is excited and enthusiastic about his expertly curated shelves."


3. Publishers/publications. "I love these three...Nieves, North Drive Press, The Journal."


4. Earth Action. "Earth Action's goal is to mobilize people around the world to encourage their governments and sometimes corporations to address and solve global problems. Their strategy is to create a global network—a kind of Amnesty International for the planet—made up of individuals, groups and legislators who are prepared to act together."


5. Music. "I'm into this new music page on my website. Send me your music to check out!!"


6. Film. "These two classics in stoner cinema: "Rockers, 1978. A beautiful and unique Jamaican Robin Hood story, starring Leroy Wallace, Dirty Harry, Gregory Isaacs, Jacob Miller, Burning Spear and many others. Just listening to this movie would be amazing...watching it you'll get a contact high. Withnail and I, 1987. 'I don't advise a haircut, man. All hairdressers are in the employment of the government. Hairs are your aerials. They pick up signals from the cosmos, and transmit them directly into the brain. This is the reason bald-headed men are uptight.'"


7. Stuff. "Ferrofluid. My friend Allan Macintyre does bizarre experiments with this magic liquid and photographs them. He recently gave me a tiny sample of the stuff in a glass beaker, and I've been mesmerized by it ever since. It's like a snow-globe with a brain."


8.. Andrew Kuo. "Andrew Kuo's intricate and intimate charts depicting his personal and thoughtful reviews of contemporary music are a completely unique blend of art and design / journal and journalism."


9. Words Without Pictures. "Words Without Pictures includes essays, discussion forums, debates, one-to-one conversations, and questionnaires about contemporary photographic and artistic concerns."


10. Astronomy Picture of the Day"...will stand your aerials on end..."
