The interface is a satellite photo of NYC, linked to stories that correspond to their geographic locations. I've read all the stories from my hood in Alphabet City (East Village). The Corner of Canal and Bowery story of the woman getting hit by a Cement Mixer evoked a feeling that I've had a million times in New York-- when something amazing happens directly in-front of you, and in seconds the city has wiped all traces of it all way. The whole site and interface is voyeuristic and strangely engaging to me.
