  1. Trip to Boston now online

    Rachel and I took a quick trip to see friends in Boston, MA a few weeks ago. I’ve finally put the photos online. I love the various web applications out there, here’s how I used three to track my trip: DOPPLR: Used to see the ‘big picture’ when it comes to travel. I’ve had the trip [...]

    I’ve traveled quite a bit lately and have been working on being able to entertainingly come up with some common passenger profiles. Here are a few more of my findings: The laptop wielding road warrior: Two trips in a row have I sat next to a woman who insists on working on a spreadsheet or e-mail [...]

  3. My Favorite Airline Passengers, Part I

    I’ve done a bunch of flying in the last few months (for work and training). I still get a little excited every time I fly. Airports have so many people and airplanes have so many people in a small spot. This means excellent people watching. I’ve come up with some of my favorite passenger profiles: Can’t [...]

    Community Next is bridging Silicon Valley to the land of silicone with The Next Generation of Media and the Web happening Saturday, March 29 in West Hollywood.

  7. My Holiday Wishlist?

    Cross posted at Employee Evolution Tis the season where family and friends start asking the dreaded: what do you want for Christmas? My parents finally dropped it on me. I was actually talking to Rachel about this and she made a very excellent point: At this stage in my life I don’t need more “things.” I’m at [...]

  8. Forbidden City Starbucks

    The Starbucks in the Forbidden City (China) was closed. I think I’m going to make myself a t-shirt and try to sell it. “I went to the Forbidden City and all I got was this lousy latte.” But seriously, I went to that Starbucks and now nobody else will be able to. Crazy. (More stories [...]

  11. Back from China

    My throat is sore from the Shanghai pollution but it was worth it. China was awesome. I’ve got some pictures up on Flickr now. Click around and leave your comments. A lot of stuff I did wasn’t documented with photos so I will be making a China journal in the coming days. Now I’ve got [...]

  12. Traveling to China

    I think the biggest piece of advice anyone out of college would give is to travel while you’re young (and in college). I’ve heard it a number of times. From friends, family, family friends, professors, etc. Having seen my friends study abroad for months at a time and knowing that my elders are wiser than [...]

  13. San Francisco Vacation

    This weekend I decided to return to San Francisco. I figured the first time (only two weeks ago) was strictly business so I needed to go back and see the sights. Plus, Noah was celebrating his birthday and I couldn’t not be there. Thus, I left for SFO on Friday morning…
