When it comes to buying into new products, software, or services I take my time in picking out the best of what there is to offer within my price range and often just out of my price range because I have a knack for being overly demanding when it comes to tools that I use every day. While constantly on the move I need things that will hold up to the general abuse of being in a lot of different environments. Its something people often tease me about, “there goes john on another endless quest for another gadget.” I feel I do it out of necessity. I don’t have a ton of money to throw away on mistakes or maybes, I like to get it right the first time and that takes time and research.
(…)
I find that I sit somewhere between the ultra minimal lifestyle that many tout on their blogs and social networks and those attached to older, kitschy nostalgia. I like having old books on my bookshelf and small trinkets from my travels scattered around my living space. I like both the minimal forms of modern trends in product design and the warm feeling an old wooden bookshelf can bring. Its a position that has left me in a place where making observations on function and form lay in a strange place.
Very good read.

Dear lovely citizens of Big Apple Town,
I would like to ask you for some nice & delightful nightlife recommendations. Since more and more people from my circle of friends and acquaintances are moving (or at least temporarily visiting) New York, I’m thinking about accepting the call and say hello to some of you, my transoceanic friends.
So, what is hot right now and where should I / we go as the sun sets?
