Screenagers in Love

5:25 PM -- Bwa-haha-haha-haha-ha. I heard a hilarious new mobile buzzword today talking with mobile content delivery startup Mobispine: Screenagers. Yep. Screenagers.

"The SMS and Facebook generation," explains Mobispine CEO, Dusyant Patel. "We call them screenagers."

Which appears to put me and most of the 20- and 30-somethings I know into a a state of suspended adolescence, but maybe that's not news to anyone.

Dan is to hats what Will.I.Am is to ridiculous eyewear. Fedora, trilby, tam-o-shanter -- all have graced the Jones pate during his career as the go-to purveyor of mobile essentials.

But hey, Dan is so much more than 4G maps and state-of-the-art headgear. Before joining the Light Reading team in 2002 he was an award-winning cult hit on Broadway (with four 'Toni' awards, two 'Emma' gongs and a 'Brian' to his name) with his one-man show, "Dan Sings the Show Tunes."

His perfectly crafted blogs, falling under the "Jonestown" banner, have been compared to the works of Chekhov. But only by Dan.

He lives in Brooklyn with cats.
