    You may have noticed a downed site earlier today (or last night), and it seems that my host had to take it down because it was taking up too many resources on the shared server it occupied. I’ve made a few quick changes (now only 8 posts per page, removed the link to the Canadian…

    For Canadian Style, I’ve also created plenty of signage. Above are the profiles for the two featured artists (I’ll post the text in another post): designer Sonia Chow and photographer Marc Xavier LeBlanc (who also created all the Canadian Style music mixes — more on that later). Marc’s card is actually at the same scale…

    As promised, here’s a look at the Canadian Style menu I designed. As you can see, the food selection is maple-heavy, and quite tasty I might add. My faves? The meat pie brought me back home, and tastes pretty much like the kind my mom made. My favorite dessert had got to be the maple…

    I don’t know what’s going on, but it looks like my Flickr feed is suddenly posting plenty of pictures that aren’t mine. Anyone know what’s going on? Are other users experiencing this?

    Continuing on my theme of moving all my activities to the web, the Feedlounge online feed reader looks rather sweet. Too bad you need to pay $5 a month to use it (which is why I’ll stick to Bloglines). Also, from using the mobile phone access to Gmail, I’ve noticed that I can actually access…

    I’m sure you already all know about the recently announced Nintendo DS Lite (out in March), and I quite like the image you see above, as it helps put the new console’s dimensions in context (more comparisons in this Joystiq entry). I’m quite liking it — love that it’s white — and since I’ve pretty…

    The new (well, relatively new) Bape Cafe!? in Harajuku. I took this shot a couple of months ago, and forgot to post it. Me, I just don’t dig the rattan chairs at all.
