New York City with Little Kids

Vacations are not what they used to be. I spent the July 4th weekend in New York City, my first trip there with kids in tow, and it really hit home for me: I’m a parent.

Here are the most interesting things we saw.

New York City Is Doomed

bloomberg block

STARTUP 2011 -- Marc Cenedella, the CEO and founder of The Ladders, the job site for people looking to make over $100,000, did something few New Yorkers do -- but should -- he took a look at the city's budget summary.

After looking at it, he had a really gloomy take away: "We decreased the number of employees we have, but almost doubled our costs, over the past decade.  This way lay bankruptcy, now or in the future."

We pulled Cenedella aside at the SAI Startup 2011 conference to find out what's going on with New York's budget and how worried we should be.

Marc Cenedella is CEO of TheLadders. Prior to founding TheLadders.com, Marc was a senior vice president at HotJobs.com. Previously, Marc was an associate vice president at The Riverside Company, a New York-based private equity firm.

Behind The Scenes At The New York Tech Meetup (TCTV)

Since launching in 2004, the New York Tech Meetup has mushroomed to more than 17,000 members, making it the largest MeetUp in the world. Once a month the community pours into the Skirball Center on NYU’s campus to network and watch nascent companies demo their products. Companies who’ve taken center stage in the past include Tumblr and Foursquare. Paid tickets are quickly snapped up and the organization recently hired its first Managing Director, Jessica Lawrence to handle growth. I attended the April 6th MeetUp with approximately 800 other spectators, one of which was Craigslist Founder, Craig Newmark. His presences was a highlight for one of the presenters of Lemonade Stand, a company that helps facilitate the online buying and selling of items in a community. (Video after jump).

Billion Dollar Startup Spotify Hiring Up In New York

new york

Spofity, the European music startup that just landed a $100 million investment at a $1 billion to $2 billion valuation from DST, is hiring up in New York.

CEO and cofounder Daniel Ek just tweeted, "Spotify is looking for rockstar engineers and product people in NYC!"

Specifically, Spotify is looking for a graphic designer, an interaction designer, and a software engineer.

According to Spotify's Web site, New York is the only place the company is looking to hire in the US.

Spotify subleases office space at Google's massive New York office in Chelsea, Peter Kafka reports.

Spotify hasn't launched in the US yet, but when it does, some industry watchers expect it to explode in the Facebook ecosystem, perhaps unseating incumbents in the music distribution space the way Zynga used Facebook to unseat incumbents in the videogame space.

Or maybe the huge licensing fees the Spotify will have to pay to labels will drag the whole thing down like so many other Internet music startups.

We'll see!
