On the off chance anyone actually comes to this site seeking "Daniel Radosh news and information," here is some. I've just signed on to be a contributing editor at Radar. Yes, yes, yes, it is going to be a good magazine. I can't say much, except that comparisons to Talk will stop dead once the first issue drops in April. What being a contributing editor entails: Writing a bit, including a column in every issue that will be a descendent of Eight Days, my old New York Press gig; generating and editing stories; dropping by the office once a week to offer feedback; soliciting articles from friends; fending off questions from friends about the magazine's finances. I am still keeping my part time job at The Week, but I will probably not be freelancing anymore. The downside to all this: I finally had to cave in and get a cell phone. It is shiny, and lights up in blue when I touch its buttons, and when someone calls, it plays a bit of music that I've heard my mom play on the piano, though I can't recall what it is right now.
