Previously, I wrote about GPush for the iPhone, an app that offers push notification. It kind of worked, but it wasn’t perfect. There were times where it would just completely stop working and I’d have to reset the program and reactivate my account in order for it to work. I also didn’t like that it [...]

One of the first things I did when I got an iPhone was call AT&T and asked them to turn off SMSing. If I’m paying $70 a month for phone and data service, I think it’s stupid that they expect me to pay extra for text [...]

On a pleasant spring night this week, I had an amazing dinner at Joe’s Restaurant on a quiet corner on the usually busy Abbot Kinney Blvd. It was still early enough for sunlight to be shining in through the windows, illuminating the crisp, clean decor inside.
Our party, two omnivores and a vegan called ahead [...]
