Bomb in a Birdcage

August 5, 2009

Preview “Blow Away,” the first single off of A Fine Frenzy’s upcoming September release. I consider myself an Alison Sudol fan, but I definitely have some mixed feelings about this single. It’s a complete departure from the 2007 album and its piano-driven, melodic, jazz-inspired vibe.

The Time Traveler’s Wife

June 13, 2009

From the trailer, it looks like the silver screen version of Niffenegger’s brilliant work of fiction will be more of an inspired-by adaptation than a direct translation of the book — a wise decision, IMHO. Here’s to hoping that the inserted dialog doesn’t undermine the beauty of the story.

150

May 13, 2009

The Oregon 150 Challenge website makes me proud to be an Oregonian. And it reminds me of all the places in my own state that (embarrassingly) I’ve never visited.

Finally, a decent place to find hairstyle photos. Before this, we were doomed to those terrible hairstyling magazines and celebrity style websites.

Fifty People, One Question, via DailyCandy. “Go to a place. Ask fifty people the same question. Film their responses.” Some really endearing responses and camera shyness.

How did I not know about Oh So Beautiful Paper until this week? Now this is a girl after my own heart. Blogging exclusively about lovely, creative, unique paper goods… It doesn’t get much better.

Nueva

August 27, 2008

I found NuevaSync on Saturday, and I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to say that it has changed my life. Being able to enter and modify appointments directly on my iPhone instead of having to wait until I’m at my computer… How did I survive with it any other way?

Verve

Why didn’t we ever do a vocal rendition of Bittersweet Symphony when I was in jazz and pops choir?

For Future Use

May 21, 2008

The next time someone stares blankly at me after I give a brief overview of the product I work on, I’m just going to sit them down and make them watch this.

TEAL

April 13, 2008

Some have described Jeff Deck and his team as “the Zorro of grammar,” but I prefer “crusaders of orthography.”
