The Golden Wrapper
I'm sure the countdown to the Samsung Galaxy Nexus Smartphone Launch has begun by now! New smartphone launches are always exciting, 'cause developers are frequently pushed to the edge to create something extraordinary for the latest embodiment of communication devices. And as much as it pains me for how quickly a computer or TV can […]
Pushing Blogging on Unsuspecting Mothers-To-Be
I'll admit, I'm a blogging junky. This particular blog might be new, but I've been hopping in and out of the blogging world for probably ten years now (one of my first blogs was put together while I attended Seneca College for web design, as a portfolio piece… and sadly, that party of my life […]
Maybe I Should Have Signed Up for NaNoWriMo Instead….
Nah. I've tried NaNoWriMo for a couple of years… I think roughly from years 2002 to 2005, though I never completed the 50,000 word challenge. And wasn't like I was hurting for ideas to “bash” out on my computer or anything, 'cause I do enjoy making up stories… mostly fantasy/sci-fi in nature, which you'd think […]
Starbucks Saved Me From the Perils Of Not Connected
So here I am, sitting at a Starbucks, because my internet went down unexpectedly a couple hours ago, and I need to get my NaBloPoMo entry done asap. It wasn't until I sat down that I realised what I'd want to talk about… And if you haven't guessed it yet, it would be: What The […]

Long Live The Geeks
My #geek was totally showing today at 6:30 AM. Quite possibly to an uncomfortable level for everyone involved on Twitter this morning, heh. I stood in “line” for 2 and a half hours to land a wristband for tonight’s book signing at the Manulife Centre Indigo in downtown TO. I think only thirty of us […]
I Feel The Need To Explain The Self-Professed Tech Guru Thing
I’ve heard a lot of “negative nellies” (I don’t think I’ve EVER used that term before! What is the internet doing to me??) on blog posts about the DO’s and DON’T’s that newbies and/or C-Listers should do… or rather not do, to be cool online. And yeah, quite a bit of it was entertaining and […]
Blissdom Canada: Meet Lisa Leonard Designs / How To Shorten a Necklace Chain
I had a really great time at Blissdom Canada a couple weeks ago, and have been wanting to share the particulars with you guys for what seems like ages! I got to meet up with some incredible people, some of which I had only met once before at Shes Connected, and others I had met […]
So, You Wanna Blo?
Alright fashionistas, executives, and SAHMs that need a little *ME* time, do I have a contest for you! They (those anonymous people on your tv) always say you should start every morning with a good breakfast to have a great day. Well, I'd like to make an addendum to that. Sure have a great breakfast!
