Jake Bronstein of Zoomdoogle published a free and fantastic guide of 314 fun things to do in New York City. He printed up and distributed a bunch of copies, and has also made it available as a PDF. I saved a copy on my iPad for the next time I visit.

    Dylan’s Candy Bar is way overpriced; there are better candy shops around.

    Every city needs one of these. Would love one for Austin.

    What a great idea! Fun for everyone and good promotion for him. I´m going to order some Buckyballs now.

    Economy Candy, on Rivington St, is the hands down BEST candy shop ever – they put Dylan’s to shame – Economy Candy has tons of ‘penny’ candy, tons of foreign candy, and a great dried fruit section. Can’t find something in another store? THEY HAVE IT!

    So much better than Dylan’s.
