November 23, 2011 – on technology.
Typing this on the day for Thanksgiving – a day on which I’m committed to turning off the iPad, the iPhone, and simply connecting with those I love. Maybe that’s another RID project worth considering? Happy day off, all…
November 17, 2011 – a note about the World Cup, the Olympics, and global competition.

So, I went to Bumbershoot this year…I think for the final time. While I love my yearly excursion to Seattle to discover and see new emerging bands, I think I’m now choosing to pick music festivals a bit closer to … Continue reading
September – Mobile phone case.
Today I give away a great leather case — it’s held an iPod, a blackberry, an iPhone…you name it. It’s made by this great company – I think this is the first brand endorsement I’ve done on this blog…and I … Continue reading
