It's a waste of resources for them (and the planet) and a waste of time for me since I must dispose of it. Worse, they block the sidewalk in front of my (corner) house by dropping a stack of papers on the corner to use as a staging area (I'm not sure what else to call it) for deliveries. School kids use that sidewalk to walk to school and there are many cars on the roadway. It's wrong to block the sidewalk and make the kids walk in the street. I wish the students would go ahead and walk on my front garden area (not really a lawn), but they (unlike the Milpitas Post) respect people's property and do not do so.

I participated in their guess the "mystery spot" and I actually won! Their customer service could do a little better because I had to reach out to them instead of them contacting me if I had won or not. Still got a free certificate to Casa Azteca! :)

The San Jose Jazz Festival was started inside its office by its jazz columnist, and the San Jose Downtown Association began there as well.

Metro covers news, politics, culture and arts and has been free since the beginning. It purchased four other alt-weeklies and is now the flagship of a five publication alternative newspaper group.

I dropped by the office of the Palo Alto Weekly to pick up a copy of the Almanac. I had placed a…read morequarter page advertisement, and wanted to see how it came out in the published newspaper. I grabbed a copy from the rack just inside of the door and proceeded to make my exit. My complaint is mostly with the receptionist who demanded that I immediately pay her fifty cents. That rubbed me the wrong way. $650 for an ad and now she wants fifty cents. Sure, charge it to my debit card. Ridiculous! I got a little heated and told her that I just wanted to see my ad. The whole experience made me feel like an unwanted customer, a nuisance, and a newspaper thief. To the Embarcadero Publishing Company, why is your newspaper free on the streets, but if I want to pick one up from your offices, I get fined? Find a receptionist with less attitude!

These guys are working hard to give us that 'indian connection' which listeners are listening to free of charge. It's not food or a product that you purchased and did not like. If you don't like the content, just change the channel. I would say overall it is listenable, and when I don't like the shows they are running, I switch to 1170AM or 1350AM. Same review applies to them as well.

Donna has been publishing WC for 6 years, and can work with you to find the distribution schedule that's best for you and your business. She met with me and reviewed all the options, as well as gave me an overview of what the magazine is all about. WC distributes 10,000 issues every quarter, and targets venues where women gather (libraries, coffee shops, hair & nail salons, etc.). Your ad *will* be seen! I really like that this magazine is run by SF Bay Area women, *for* Bay Area women, and nearly all of the ads are for women-owned businesses. But, WC isn't just about advertising. They have great feature articles in every issue, as well as special interest profiles on interesting products, people or events. Take a look for yourself, and see if Women's Connection Magazine is right for you! http://www.womens-connection.net/

I used to be a DJ here from 1996 to 1998 and it was a great experience and still is a great station…read moreto listen to because of all the diverse music formats and shows the station had to offer featuring under represented music not found on commercial radio where I came across a lot of excellent music from a punk metal hard perspective as well as opened up my mind to other genres including jazz up to walking away with a production piece keepsake of my own. KSJS is a gateway and experience for those wanting to learn about broadcasting etc. and a great way to meet and work with good people. My passion was more audio over video and left with the basics of digital audio editing that can now be done with simple software on a home computer. For those at KSJS and however you are involved in the station enjoy your time there and get the most out of it. For those listening be open minded and stop judging the occasional belch because I got away with a lot more on A 2 to 6 am shift which would never have been possible on commercial radio and probably said at least one thing in the early am during a traffic report that probably was not ideal but not offensive. It was a wild time for me back in day meeting drunken rhythm Jazz and blues artists and being in close quarters with them laying down legal ids and liners from then station one of which was featured on a sports weekly segment because it was off the wall funny. Those days I do miss and wish I would have stayed involved longer but the real world called me in 1998 and I started my next chapter. Highly recommend the experience to SJSU students regardless of their major and to judgmental listeners, cut the station a break as you might not find this style of college radio or freedom anywhere else. Tune in online and phone in your requests and if it meshes with the DJs show the you might find it honored in 15 minutes or less as the technology is more instantaneous depending on your request. I wish KSJS well now and in the future with many years of longevity to come and yes it will change with history. Wild times in the 20th century and wild times today and KSJS covers it all. Support your local college radio station out there in San Jose. Peace out.
