It was nice to see dot-comrade Chris Bowler launch his newest Internet venture last week: Idea Cafe Like Chris, I have a notebook fetish and my to do lists often resort back to pen and paper so of course I am a fan of this one. I dig the fact that you can buy individual…
Working from my local [hipster] coffee shop this morning. This fits well. Also of note, it seems BG got a new website. Shame, a step back visually from what they had.
With temperatures supposed to reach 105°F through the end of the week, I’ve got to find ways to take my mind off of it. Music sometimes helps. Feel free to spice your summer up a bit with some new melodies from my latest Muxtape: http://bit.ly/mux08 PS. To cup-half-empty you just a bit more, the head…

A simple but quite informative graphic to help you decide how to take your coffee. I, of course, take the weak-sauce route with a mocha 99% of the time. Click to view the entire piece. via Plaid Creative Related: The Utility Journal blog has just started a reoccurring theme called Tip Sheet. The first one…
Forget the fact that NFL players report for training camp in two weeks, it’s time to get your TiVo’s set for the fourth season of Mad Men in just two weeks. It’s been by far the most addicting (and more than likely the least benefiting) show the wife and I have watched consistently in years.…
Wow, Coudal might have just sucked me in. I’ve been meaning to swing by and pick up a new Moleskine, but goodness, these County Fair edition of Field Notes could be enough to sway me away from leather. I’d also take the map below as a print for my wall if they decided to produce…
My wife has started playing tennis a couple of times a week, looking forward to the day she can do things like this. Crazy. via swissmiss
Finally got around to checking out the video posted by Joshua and can confirm that this is probably a good addition to your summer of 2010 music rotation. Janelle Monae via @blankenship
I feel like I’ve posted about Jessica Hische’s work before but I can find it anywhere. Either way, her Daily Drop Cap was already a pretty awesome experiment on her part to push her illustration skills and spread the word but she upped the stakes yesterday with some awesome letter-pressed business cards to accompany. Today’s…
I think we have a new front-runner in the Colosseo iPad Martian Giveaway. Check out Phil’s masterpiece. And then flip the switch for the black light. Amazing.
You might remember a year or so ago when I wrote about the fantastic gift I received from a well-known designer named Cameron Moll. At the time, he had created a work of art for his employer and saw the rave reviews it had drawn from the community so he decided to get more printed…
I would watch more TV if it was like this…
Add this to my wish lists for both of the boys: Early Rider Bikes The video sold it for me. Although I hate that they just let the music cut out at the end.
Of course I’ll reserve a feet first bandwagon jump on the emerging device called The Bloom box at this point but I am curious to see where it goes. The box – about the size of a kid’s shoe box – is a fuel-cell driven, mini-power plant that is touted to be able to power…
If you’re not using Vimeo for your video hosting needs, you’re existence on this planet should be questioned. Not only did they just launch the ability to view videos in full-screen 1080p HD but they have also just made my life eight-hundred times easier by allowing me to upload the files directly from my camera…
When it’s the eve of Jesus’ birth, mama’s working and there’s a fresh two inches of powder dropped on your lawn, you find inside things to do with your two-year old. Since he’s still in front of a screen, it may not be much better than throwing on a movie and plopping him on the…
I had more songs than days/time to share this season so I wrapped up a few of my favorites for you. Enjoy CreepySanta09 (80mb). Track list: 1. Bing Crosby – Happy Holidays (Beef Wellington Remix) 2. Martin Sexton – Holly Jolly Christmas 3. Leon Redbone & Zooey Deschannel – Baby It’s Cold Outside 4. Harry…
