Ive been on a red kick lately. I always hated it as a kid as i think i had an anti nebraska pride thing going. Ive been running some red accessories for a few years now as i always think its nice to have a splash of something bright. Visvim has been doing some solid colored items for a while and I always like em every season, but cant justify the hyped price, even if they are a good build.
Incase looks to be about perfect price/value ratio and actually has pockets for things we really do on a daily basis. Im a fan of the cyan series also released this spring, but the red is just amazing. I need that Nylon Backpack and Dop Kit in my life!
Joy and I were just talking about this in regards to the recent signage going up in town. Super 8 and a couple others have new logos and they are terrible. Another point of interest was candy bar and soda graphics we’ve seen updated recently. People want to recognize/remember whats good, not get new and improved thrown in their faces during these economic times. The article that makes better comments than i do is here.
The internet is a horrible horrible time waster. Not to hate on Safari as I am pretty much an apple fanboy all around(and there are definitely positives and negatives to all the current options), but Firefox has such great add-ons. Check out this ad blocker that is completely customizable. Saves 3-10 seconds a page on my horrible connection getting rid of all the obnoxious animated gifs, talking ads, and google spam.
I dont get too excited about too many things…..thanks to the Sarge, Mike and Frog!
Sean and I were just talking last week about how important previous AWS videos were to us in our lives, and how we remember each one so clearly. when and where we were the first time we saw them, practically down to what we were wearing. Definitely the brand that shaped skateboarding for me and in a small way contributed to my outlook on life in general. No Pressure.
I hoped these would have been worse. Still too many things going for me and for some reason remind of a DC volcano among other things, but really pretty solid. pics from hypebeast.
Ive had a couple palm phones and have always been a fan, they were touch screen long before anyone else. The OS is great but hasnt been updated for a few years, and has visually fallen behind since the release of recent blackberry models, htc touch models, and obviously the iphone. Those that know me well know that Ive preferred all things apple since about 97, so it would only make sense that i would have an iphone right? Well as it stands i am paying about 30 dollars a month for my service and have unlimited everything except minutes, which i recently discovered last month i only used 31 of. Im much more of a texter.
So If I can upgrade from my palm centro to the upcoming Palm Pre and not have to upgrade my plan, im on it. You will never find me paying 100 dollars a month for service unless the slider spits out 5 dollar bills every time i answer a call.
Palms web OS looks amazing, as long as it syncs w/ my imac i am hyped. best of both worlds, large touch screen and a slide out qwerty to get it handled. Definitely ready for some wi-fi! For those interested there is a video tour at gizmodo.
btw the “touchstone” above is its wireless charging dock! just set it on the stone and it connects!
Not a new documentary, but one of the best and it is debuting in a one hour version on pbs tonight for those in NE. Check it out, Tuesday, January 6th. 10pm central.
Leica will be releasing a limited edition version of their popular D-Lux 4 model. The camera will come in a titanium casing with matching Leica leather pouch. The technical specs are the same as for the regular D-Lux 4 and luckily it also seems like the price will be the same in the US. Only to be 500 pieces released.
