		<title>Red Medicine: Creating A Buzz</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It may not have been intentional, but it certainly got Red Medicine a lot of attention when they kicked out LA food critic, Irene Virbila, and put a photo of her on their web page. Red Medicine, a Vietnamese influenced restaurant in Beverly Hills,  is a collaboration of Jordan Kahn and Adam Fleischman (Umami Burger [...]]]></description>

		<title>Facebook vs Twitter 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[An interesting demographic study into the two behemoths of social networking. Some thoughts: I had no idea that twitter was so big amongst college students. Also twitter&#8217;s status as a platform for social interaction (rather than just a front end) is evident in that 52% of users  post to their twitter everyday, despite only 27% [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Crane Wife</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Came across this song by the Decemberists which is about an old Japanese tale. Thought it was a good song (NPR picked the album as #1 in 2006) and even better story behind. Story is included below the player. &#8220;It&#8217;s a story about a peasant in rural Japan who finds a wounded crane on an [...]]]></description>

		<title>Descent into Geek Chic-Dom</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Now that it&#8217;s officially cool to be a geek, let me share some of my recent nerdy indulgences: Dataspora is a blog devoted to data mining trends and technologies. These topics are increasingly important now that so much data is accessible for analysis. One day, socially awkward data scientists and statisticians will become smooth operators [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dylan Rieder Rips &#8211; Gotta Be the Shoes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[To end the Skateboarding related post drought, here is a video released by Gravis  Shoes featuring Dylan Rieder. It&#8217;s long&#8230;but damn. He&#8217;s got really clean style, which seems to have flowed into the design of his pro shoe. This is one of the most unusual skate shoes I&#8217;ve ever seen, but for some reason, I like &#8216;em.

		<title>Objectified: Think More. Design Less. Part 2</title>

Recently I came across the documentary, Objectified, which is an in depth look at the design process for consumer goods. It even touches on  some of the products that were mention in my earlier post. From concept to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Borderline Unacceptable</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently I had an interesting discussion with a friend about their coworker who is engaging in a number of borderline unacceptable behaviors. It led to a funny argument about whether this person&#8217;s actions were odd or just flat-out wrong. Here are the charges: - Washing his face in the company kitchen sink It&#8217;s all good [...]]]></description>
