Air Travel … better enjoy the ads

by | Jun 8, 2007 | , ,

When I compare intra-Europe flying to continental US flying, the two major differences for me are that there are many more direct flights from city to city in Europe (no hub & spokes) and that it is harder to feel the (economic) pinch on European airlines. While...

by | Jun 8, 2007 |

Now, you have to be impressed with this new technology from Microsoft (shared in Monterrey in March 07). Thanks to my good friend Ned in Montreal who sent me the link, here is Photosynth software which is basically able to create complex hyperlinks of multiple images...

Desperate Housewives – a Soap Opera?

by | Jun 5, 2007 |

Yendi and I have been wading through the first series (we're at #12). When I say wading, it is more like zipping, downing two at a time every time. It's desperately addictive. Over the weekend in New York I was chatting with my friend Bob and we debated whether or not...

Believe in UFOs?

My pal Bob from New York sent me this link about a UFO sighting at O'Hare (that has since been taken down!). Seems like too many people saw it not to consider it. Was it Richard Branson playing a joke with his new airline? What do you think?
