Road Tripping with my Girlfriends Across the State of Florida
While road tripping across Florida with three of my gal-pals, for a girlfriend getaway, I came to realise something that I totally did not expect nor fully appreciated of Florida before. Every city is wildly different. Wildly different. Like, alligators vs dolphins kind of different. Thanks to 1000s of hours of movies and TV, I […]
#UseDigitalForGood by Joining Gift the Code November 3 – 5, 2017
I’m absolutely excited to say that Gift the Code, sponsored by Capital One, is BACK for a second year! Last year’s event was amazing to witness.

Dyson 360 Eye Review: How to Use Your Robot
“How to Use Your Robot” is a sentence I’ve been waiting a lifetime to read, and I can’t thank Dyson enough for making that a possibility with their development of the 360 Eye vacuum cleaner. Ever since The Jetsons, I’ve always wanted a household maintenance robot with attitude, one that would help me out with […]
The Orville: Don’t Get Your Starfleet Issued Knickers in a Twist
There are two words that pop into my head whenever I think of Seth MacFarlane’s current space dramedy, The Orville. Ridiculously. Frustrating. It’s not Star Trek, but it is. It’s like The Orville is a Star Trek fan production that managed to sneak its way onto prime-time television. And with MacFarlane at the helm, you would […]
