Another Digital Spectacle Unfolds: No, Not Today's Apple Event–It's Burning Man 2010!
BoomTown has never set foot in the dusty dustfest in the desert that is Burning Man, due to the lack of a Four Seasons in the vicinity.
Thank goodness, then, for the live stream of the annual event–direct from Black Rock City–which runs from August 30 to September 6.
