"next door" - means the EYE.TV kyte public access channel which, if you are on www.residents com, is next to THERESIDENTS TV channel.

BOG - This web site used to be referred to as a "blog" but some noble soul told me that it was not a blog because it didn't follow the blog rules. That was because things disappeared from this site and they don't from blogs. So I realized it must be a "bog" instead of a "blog" because things disappeared in bogs all the time.

Of course the word "bog" has different meanings in different languages. But I think you will find that things disappear in bogs no matter what language you are using to define it.

Now it is just called a "web site" which makes life simpler for everyone.
