Hey Folks,

If you happen to be one of the luckiest people alive and live in San Francisco like myself then you most likely know of Kabuki Theater in Japantown.  Once a thriving movie theater then turned 3rd rate, the Kabuki has had its fair share of highs and lows.  I am very happy to announce that the Kabuki has gone through a 6 million dollar face lift and man o’ man does it look good.  Dressed to impress with food, drinks and art the Kabuki has gone from last choice movie theater for the cheap all the way up to sexy movie theater for the 25+ crowd.

Now, it is a little funny that I am mentioning this right after a post about not shopping but hey, what can I say.  CompUSA just went out of business and they are clearing out stock.  Now the prices are not that great yet as they are only from 5% - 20% off and of course anything good is only 5%.  At CompUSA prices this is still more expensive than online stores.

I know I know, the crazy gadget freak, who needs to know all about gadgets and gizmos and gaming the three Gs has never been to CES? Wow, that is truly amazing. Well it is unfortunately true, I have never been to a CES show even though I know many who have and even followed the last few years through live broadcasts and web blogs covering it. Well next year, I will have the distinct honor of sharing with my loyal followers (tess) the experience I have at my first show. If you don’t know anything about CES I suggest you take a gander at their website http://www.ces.org and see what all the fuss is about. (more…)

Over the past few years as I have reached the prime time to be a single male, the early twenties, and I have been ever so interested in what the best places to meet single women were. Well if you didn’t already know, Forbes.com makes a list of the Top50 or so cities in the US for singles using various things to judge such as Culture, Nightlife, Coolness and population of Singles amongst other things.

Take a second and try to guess who was #1 is for 2007 …… (more…)

Microsoft, while adding tons of things to its Windows Live portfolio today announced a new product Live Gallery. Live gallery looks to compete with the very popular Picasa from Google that many home users have decided to use for their photo management. This is of course all part of Microsofts “Live Era” which is trying to catch up with all the little programs that many people still go to Google for. We shall see where this goes. For those who like a little more out of their software I mentioned Lightroom a few posts back, you should go check it out.

In an interesting article from the Washington Post, it looks like the folks at on the yearbook staff decided that rather than gathering photos from students why not just tap into the place where kids are posting the most photos of all….social networking sites! In this case Facebook was the place, and to the students surprise to boot. I guess this teaches everyone a lesson…what you put online is open to the public whether you want it to or not. If I was in a crunch I must admit, I probably would have done the same thing.

It looks like Google has added a way to search through their news section which allows a user to select news articles based on the pictures that are associated with them. Alone with the Standard and Text views we now have the Image View which allows us who are a bit more visual to see before reading. Of the 4 learning styles I believe that visual is far more prevelant in todays society especially with the younger generations than at any time before; so maybe Google is onto something with this one. They are tricky!!
