The New York tech scene has certainly received a lot of hype, but a lot of people are waiting for results that prove it’s more than just that. Proof that New York is really a tech ecosystem that is here to stay, no matter what may happen to Foursquare and Gilt.

The issue over whether Google is giving preferential treatment to its own products is back in the news, and this time the evidence is pretty damning. I’m not sure how Google will tap dance around it. (See Trevor’s reporting about another Google+ tapdance here.) Hopefully, they won’t even try. They’ll just come clean and admit the rules have changed.
