Aviva and I were coming out of Sears and I saw this, so I grabbed my iPhone and snapped a picture.

Malibu

We took Aviva’s brother Brian to Malibu Pier so he could go to the beach. I took a video with my iPhone of the surf (I think the sound of surf is very relaxing): The weather was great and we had a lot of fun – here are some of the photos I took with […]

Malibu

We took our friend to Malibu today – not the nicest weather for a trip to the beach, but the Pacific is almost always majestic. Here’s a really bad video of some surfers – two made it to the end of the wave: We went to the pier and then to Malibu’s downtown – that […]

While we were […]

Recap of the #140conf in Los Angeles

I arrived at the Henry Ford Music Box Theatre 15 minutes before registration – I’ve lived in LA long enough to know you leave early if you want to make sure you arrive on time, thank you LA traffic. The theatre is a very cool place; I was most impressed with the interior, which is […]

TriMirror – Crowdsourcing fashion

I found TriMirror (http://www.trimirror.com/), or perhaps it found me, thanks to @Bellpopping.  I’ve been dabbling in fashion related web stuff for a while now – I was a beta member of Swirl and I’ve started watching the Rachel Zoe Project and subscribed to her newsletter, among other bits. When Basya suggested I take a look […]
