Coffee

Monday, March 5th, 2007

How many kinds of coffee can one have? Apparently rather a lot. On Sunday I had a Soya Raspberry Mocha, and then we got to Sunnyvale and there are literally two dozen or more coffee syrups to try.
It’s just crazy. I love coffee, and that just adds an ongoing twist. I’d love to […]

Brand Vs. Content; Moo and Nokia strut their stuff

Sunday, March 4th, 2007

All American Eating; Chinese New Year; Flickr 333; Burning Man says ‘No’

Saturday, March 3rd, 2007

Thursday, March 1st, 2007
