Graphic Novel Settings

Daniel Clowes, probably still my favorite comics artist, has begun a new story for The New York Times' Funny Pages, Titled Mister Wonderful (PDF). In reading the first installment, I realized the setting was none other than Gaylord's, quite possibly Oakland's best coffeehouse, and also Dan Clowes local haunt (I've seen him on Piedmont Ave, where Gaylord...

Get Satisfaction / Give Satisfaction

Congrats to the Satisfaction team for the launch of their new service. (Lane Becker, whom I used to work with, toils there now.)The home page for Satisfaction (which in part looks like this:)I suspect might have been inspired by an old Adaptive Path favorite, the (since redesigned) home page for Hay Net, a service of the Farm Service Agency that connec...

Super Quick Book Review - Erik Larson's Thunderstruc

Like much of the North American reading population, I enjoyed Erik Larson's Devil in the White City, a book which deftly intertwined the design and development of the 1893 Chicago World's Columbian Exposition (focusing on Daniel Burnham's leadership) and the grisly murders in a house near the exposition. So, I picked up Larson's latest, Thunderstruck as ... (314 天前)

Cusco - The Ruins

Somehow, I don't seem to know anyone who has ever been to Cusco. And, to be honest, before planning this trip, I'd never really thought of Cusco, and had no idea really what to expect. Stacy, being an archaeologist, knew better -- the area around Cusco is rife with Inca ruins, including, most famously, Machu Picchu. I'm annoyed that I didn't know anyone... (314 天前)
