A letter from the Bloomfield (Mich.) Optimist Club:

I am happy to report that this year’s Children’s Holiday Wish Program is
history, and the best one yet at that! We have removed our tables and
equipment, straighted out the operations center and delivered all of the
gifts to the happy recipients.
As usual, thank you very much for the indispensable [...]

I’m a huge hockey fan and I visit my favorite sites on an almost daily basis. Usually for me it’s more about who scored last night, what the latest trade rumors are, and so on. But a recent post from the On Frozen Blog and article from the Washington Times [...]

Based on what’s been unveiled this year at CES, I’m betting that 2009 will be the year when streaming video really goes mainstream. At least two big consumer electronics manufacturers, LG and Vizio, have announced networked TVs.

Kids today switch from cool new synthpop to Japanese rock to Mexican folk songs to minimal techno way more quickly than I can say “CDs and maxisingles.” Friends’ recommendations and links can help change one’s musical taste from pop to bizarre and [...]

I just (finally) watched a special on Sundance called Henri Cartier-Bresson: The Impassioned Eye – released in 2003 (one year before the artist’s death).
While I wasn’t at all impressed with the directing or even the concept of the film, I was reminded why he’s my all time favorite photographer. If you can get passed hearing [...]

On ThreeMinds we often post about interesting home page takeovers and online advertising. Just this week, in fact, there was mention of the Ford takeover on ESPN. However, we often forget to mention the original platform: the actual “billboard”. Modern billboards continue to stretch the envelope in innovative ways, using physical space [...]

When I checked-in at nwa.com on New Year’s Eve, I saw the new feature of sending e-boarding pass to mobile phone number or email, I was curious what is this new feature is, so I selected to send e-boarding pass to mobile’s email. Almost instantly, I received email with the boarding pass which contained a [...]
