At 18, Blogging His Way Into Elite Social Scene.

This article reports on the summer of Illinois college student James Kurisunkal. The student's hobby of following the elite of New York City on a blog called Park Avenue Peerage began in his dorm room in Illinois. The hobby quickly grew in content and hits and led to a summer internship at "New York Magazine" where he covered a few of the social events of the season in addition to performing the typical duties of an intern. On his off time, he volunteered in a soup kitchen.
