  Something amazing happened during LA Startup Weekend that I wanted to share with you. It’s about the amazing team I worked with. As I talked to people from other teams, I noticed that we were different from many of them. Other teams focused on what Startup Weekend was about, which is launching a company. […]

As many of you know, I spent the last year creating, designing, and marketing EntertainLA.com. I’ll have to share my experience with that soon. Currently, I consult and manage social media marketing for a few clients in various industries. What’s amazing is how much of what I learn from social media marketing correlates with designing […]

Medical marijuana is a joke. Not the argument for it, but the reality of it. The same people who promote medical marijuana promote the decriminalization of it.

When I get your number at a bar and put it in my phone, within minutes it’s saved in some cloud (server) somewhere, and is also automatically on my laptop. I can actually find all my contact information from any computer that has internet. This is all thanks to MobileMe, a service from Apple that […]

This should read: “Credit Cards have been electric, and have already disappeared into mobile phones.” The idea is quite simple and fantastic. With traditional credit cards you have to swipe so that the […]

I’ve recently realized that every day is a national day for something. Today happens to be a national day for two somethings: Vodka & Tacos. Who decides on these national occurences?
