    You know, with it being Golden Week, it’s a good time to be tinkering with bits of the site (and I’m enjoying doing so at Co-Lab today). After adding (or rather I should say bringing back) the TAB badge in the sidebar, I’ve just added probably the most requested feature following the re-design of the…

    I’ve been sitting on this idea for about a month now, and I figure it’s about time I put it out there, and get some feedback. Partially inspired by PechaKucha, I’d like to create some sort of monthly meetup at Cafe Pause for creators/designers/writers to get together and talk about current projects, current trends, etc.…

    The universe decides to balance the scales again — the same week I got my new MacBook Pro, the screen on my old iMac (that I was still using the create my wireless network among other things) went dark. Since the 3-year warranty has expired, and with this Apple support discussion thread suggesting that the…

    Remember that great region-free DVD player (Beans) I got last week from RegionFreeJapan.com? Seems like the post I wrote sent a few readers their way, and as a thank you they’re offering a discount to new orders. Jean, this is Jim from RegionFree KK (www.regionfreejapan.com). I processed your order for the Beans S-901HG. Thanks for…

    I am now the proud owner of a ridiculously named Beans DVD player (S-901HG — a Google search shows it’s quite easy to find on lots of Japanese auction sites). My old DVD player — a Shinco, something I had bought online from Hong Kong 5 years ago — has been sick for quite a…

    Well, in the end, I ended up having to pick up another pair of Apple In-Ear Headphones. At first I tried picking up a cheap pair, and although I was expecting the crappy sound quality, again, they just wouldn’t fit in my ears properly, and hurt as all hell (especially my left ear). A lot…
