  • Gold Star For The Internet: DJ Khaled’s Snapchat

    I actively use Snapchat, but up until recently I only used it to see updates from my friends. That all changed when I read a story a few months ago about DJ Khaled getting lost at sea on his jet ski, and that he documented the entire experience on his Snapchat account. The videos I…

  • Gold Star for the Internet: Podcasts I’m Currently Listening To

    On Monday, I started a new contract gig for a media company that’s based in Santa Monica. Because of traffic, it takes me about 2 1/2 hours to get there and about the same time to get home. I have a solid iTunes library, and I put my iPhone on shuffle in the morning to help…

    Think Tank: Internet Detoxing

    In case you were wondering, I completed my Internet Detox and lived to tell the tale. As a refresher, here were the rules: 1.

    I’d like to know where July went. Please tell me. Anyway, here’s what I read this week: 1. iTunes is the worst re: metadata. 2. You all are sleeping on the Arctic Monkeys, but the South Americans are not. This article also has some interesting things to say about South America infrastructure and the power of…

  • Think Tank: The Dress

    I had totally planned to write something else for today’s Think Tank, but Adrian told me that I needed to write about The Dress so here I am. If you haven’t seen or heard about The Dress yet, it’s this photo of a dress that’s been circulating the Internet today. The original poster asked her followers…

  • Link Party: 2/2-2/6

    Here’s what I read this week: 1. An incredible feature on Annie Dillard. 2. The future of cursive handwriting. 3. What happens when pockets of the Internet evaporate. 4. A very interesting take on cohabitation, and what happens to your books. 5. The book that is truly the master class in hailing Satan. And a bonus: Valentino’s…
