[here is the previous post about gathering addresses for your holiday cards]
OK… now you’ve got the mailing addresses of all your lovely friends, family members, and random people you like to send greeting cards to… but how are you going to make them save you more time in your holiday routine??
By creating [...]

So we’ve talked about finding pretty holiday cards… but what about the pain of actually sending them out?
If you’re like me… you don’t have any actual printed copy of everyone’s address in one place. They’re all scattered among various “Contact Lists” in various programs, they’re scribbled on pieces [...]
Last night was a pretty geeky night for Mr. M and I. We went to “The Lord of the Rings: In Concert” at PowerBalance Arena, and watched the entire theatrical release (if you’re a true LOTR nerd, you know why I say this) of “The Fellowship of the Ring” as it [...]
You may have read all about them in the New York Times, Engadget or maybe this is the first time you’ve seen this boxy little thing.
I’m not going to lie. I want one of these Lytro cameras. BADLY. And for absolutely no good reason.
That’s why I know [...]
It’s no hidden mystery and Mr. M and I like our video games. And while we have a few crossover favorites, I tend to enjoy more situational games and long-term strategy rather than shoot-em-up or sports games. But, don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a little combat in my games too. I think [...]
If you’re like me, you might forget all of the wonderous powers that various Comic Book superheroes possess, and therefore might find yourself in the embarrassing position of improperly critiquing the latest summer thriller and the impossibility of such actions. (Ooops!)
However, with this lovely chart, “The Illustrious Omnibus of Superpowers,” created by Pop [...]
Here are two quick tweets from yesterday… with some pretty cool information that I figured I should share on the blog as well!
1) Fab.com
Really… FAB is truly fabulous if you enjoy quirky/fun design stuff. Today, they’ve got fun stuff from Fred & Friends, last week they featured those awesome [...]
In my former life as an algebra teacher, I tried my best to incorporate everyday “adult” uses for the mathematic formulas that were being drilled into my student’s heads. “No really… you will need this as an adult.” Most of us can giggle about how calculus isn’t in our daily lives (well, I work in [...]
For most of my recipe blog posts lately (like here and here), I’ve been including a little nutrition label for everyone’s reference. I’ve begun consciously doing it because, as a LoseIt user, I’m always running to track down the calories for all of the recipes I make myself. And, I figure it [...]
You might Groupon, or Live Social (at livingsocial.com) or perhaps you Zozi too? But… do you Groolu?
A few months back, I was inundated with emails from all of these daily group-buying websites, and even after setting up an email filter to sort them out of my inbox, I felt [...]
Before I grabbed my APS film scanner on eBay, I had sent away 4 rolls of film to ScanCafe to be scanned courtesy of a ridiculous $50 off coupon. In the end, I paid a whole $7 to digitally transfer my memories from my summer in Europe in 2001. (Check
I sent out a “HELP?” tweet last week hoping that someone could help me find a solution to this conundrum:
How do I keep track of all of my friends/acquaintances/contacts online in a neat and orderly fashion? Can I link up their twitter account to their facebook and their blog and real address and not [...]
