This post could be a bit premature. This October, I would have lived in New Hampshire longer than I lived in San Francisco. Thinking back on so many memories and accomplishments in my time spent there, it feels like I was in SF for a decade when it was June ’08 to August ’10. Two [...]

Hi UMF. Congratulations on your 14th year! You’ve stayed in Miami, gone from 1 day to 3 and people from all around the world come to dance and party with you. That’s pretty awesome.

I don’t know who made the call at Twitter HQ (aka the Twoffice) that Twitter was only about the free-flow of information where an SMS message can span the globe within seconds and that would be all the service would become.

K-Cups. You’ve had coffee via this brewing method and you may have a machine at home. If not, you’ve certainly seen them in stores, online and heard of the popular method in conversation with friends. Tonight, I was ranting a bit on Twitter about how evil these little plastic pods are when most of the [...]
