A couple of weeks ago I ordered some MOO business cards for YowTRIP. MOO is a London-based printing company, that you can print different pictures on the back of each of your business cards. The paper is finally what I had been looking for and could not find anywhere.
So, I selected 50 of my favorite [...]

I’m doing my part to save the planet… Since I hadn’t been using my car very much, I sold it today. So I’m now car-less :(( Well, I live, work, and work out downtown Boulder and there are plenty of restaurants nearby, so I don’t think it was that necessary…

No, just kidding, I loved my [...]

I’ve been busy lately and I had a couple of news I wanted to share… First of all, I’d like to congratulate PlanetEye for their official launch (and all the press coverage).

Tripit, there comes Dopplr…

Tripit is a travel organizer site that creates one’s itinerary by just forwarding their confirmation emails to them. I’ve met somepeople from Tripit during networking events in the Bay Area.

On my way home from work I spotted 3 raccoons on the side of the road… Very cool looking animals. I had never seen one before. They were all out of a drain when I walked by, but I thought they were cats… Then I stopped and saw they were a bit different than cats… [...]

Today I took Aubie to the vet for some blood work to see how things are doing inside… Hopefully this was the last time. The vet thought he was doing well, so we decided to have the tube removed. I think the tube was bothering him a little, as he wasn’t eating as much on [...]
