More digital dating critique
Ok now I’m really freaked out… I found someone else I know on a dating site…arghh… the world of design is just too small. Ok coming back to it, now in Amsterdam, a friend of mine is also using online dating and I tried to get some feedback from her as well. She’s dutch, in… Continue reading More digital dating critique
Whine whine whine, bitch bitch bitch
Ok,so this whole Zidane and Materazzi thing smells of sour grapes on the part of the FIFA. I mean commmooooon here I’m sure the french don’t exactly go around the field throwing roses at the opponent, so is it really worth it to spend taxpayer’s money on figuring out what exactly insulted the sourly french… Continue reading Whine whine whine, bitch bitch bitch
The end of hits
Great article by Wired editor-in-chief Chris Anderson on the state of the music industry post-peak (before file-sharing). The last “hit” was No strings Attached byN’SYNC surprisingly enough.

Unplugging
Ok this whole internet dating thing is really creepy…I’ve gotten, in the span of less than 24 hours an impressive amount of “fans” in their mid to late 30s and already 3 messages… arghhh…I’m deleting my profile, this is too creepy. I think I’ll go back to walking around town on my own… Off to… Continue reading Unplugging
Digital dating
Having a chat with my friend Jude while looking for a knob for her dresser on Portobello Road, we were catching up and we started talking about internet dating. Since I’ve been out of that loop and kindof stuck in the IDII bubble for so long, I wanted to know more. When I was in… Continue reading Digital dating
