This morning I was invited to the store opening of the shiny new London Drugs on West Broadway. The BC-based London Drugs stores have been around for 60 years and have stores across Western Canada.

This particular location is a few meters away from the old spot (at 525 West Broadway), and as the new flagship [...]

It’s been a while since I did a photo-only post so while browsing Flickr this evening I decided to share some photos that I have marked as favourites over the last few weeks.

Over the last four years I have profiled almost 30 local bloggers and posted 74 link fests to other sites. It’s taken me far to long to share another great part of the digital media realm, to which many of my good friends belong.
Digital photography is a big part of any social media event, stroll [...]

I admit, News1130 is probably my top source for up to the minute local news - and I’m talking about the RSS feed for their website, not their station on my AM dial. However, I still check various sources around the South Coast daily to simply get a rounded view of what’s making news, from [...]

A few years ago I was encouraged to use FeedBurner for all my website RSS feed needs. The benefits being when I switched from Blogger to WordPress in 2006, my feed was then “portable” and I simply inputted the new source feed generated by WP, not having to lose a single subscriber or switch anyone [...]

Between LPV4 last night (thanks to Strutta) and the VIDFEST gala at the Vancouver Art Gallery I had the chance to meet so many new (and cool) people. I don’t have all the business cards with me so I can’t do shout outs right now, but I have a few posts coming in regards to [...]

I just upgraded my WordPress to 2.5.1 and to celebrate as well as promote WordCamp Vancouver this week, I’ve recorded a quick little screencast.
This video has been edited for time on Flickr.
A full version it can be viewed on Viddler.
I just used my MacBook’s internal mic so I know some folks will be cringing at [...]

You may have noticed a small triangle popping up in the corner of your Flickr contact’s images lately. Fear not, there is no small grey triangle conspiracy, it’s actually to indicate that the image you’re seeing is simply a thumbnail of a brand spankin’ new Flickr Video.
Video! Video! Video! The rumours are true and “soon” [...]

After a tumultuous week in the blogosphere I usually have to pull myself back and discover real life and real love all over again. Don’t get me wrong, I love the blogging and the community that’s embraced me, but sometimes you just need those… tangibles.
I’ve written a post about The Things that Matter, which holds [...]

I’m sorry Moo, I always thought you were cool. I jumped at the chance to order you during your inaugural Flickr/Moo love promotion two years ago and I’ve been pleased to exchange your cards ever since. This time however, I’m not so sure I feel the same glee and excitement as everyone else.

First of [...]
