Nook Simple Touch versus Kindle Touch First Impressions (Reflection)

***** — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 05:29:16 +0000

I had used Nook prior to using my Kindle Touch for over one month but it feels different this time around. I took the advice and charged fully before trying to register. The rest went very fast and I was registered to go. I did try to subscribe to my two newspapers that I had …

Today was an interesting day. I got up at 7 am and was not tired. Breakfast was good. A thick fog was right outside but not very cold. As the train distanced, the fog eventually vanished and sky cleared. I was lucky and bus arrived when I got off the train. I would have walked …

***** — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 05:49:24 +0000

Today is Sunday and my last day off. Tomorrow is back to work and nothing to be excited about except since I am technically working at two jobs, I should be able to acquire a few wireless pieces that I am interested in but may not have a reason to go out of my way …

Where Is My Camera? (Short Piece)

***** — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:48:35 +0000

I haven’t been here for a while and as usual nothing has changed. Stable restaurant concepts stay same forever. The shops on the streets have changed. Everything looks new and changing. Only two years ago, I was told the source of the real estate money was of questionable origins but San Francisco has a great …

Today is Sunday. It is my day off and I don’t have chores due. The weather is better than usual and I slept in to make up for past few days. My walk to the cafe was not rushed. The weather did not bother me to walk faster and had no ToDos that required a …

Well I have ran out of things to read on my Kindle. Getting experienced in managing the feeds enables me to read efficiently. Today is a holiday so not many feeds. I picked a couple of cheap places to try this week. That is a result of reading SF Chronicle. Bauer killed Plant Cafe and …

Pandigital Novel 6″ eBookreader (Mentioned)

Today is no different than other days except is very boring. I noticed a sale on Pandigital Novel 6″ non-color reader. The battery was weak in our demo so I charged it. I also charged my Blackberry. Vlingo killed my battery. I read through the website and says no battery drainage. I am sure I …

Fox Cole Hardware: Plexiglass (Store)

***** — Sat, 10 Sep 2011 18:12:28 +0000

I finally had to make a decision and stopped procrastination. Fox Cole Hardware had Plexiglass and finally figured a way to cut the size I needed. They weren’t pricey though I could have saved $5 if I had paid attention when Yelp coupon popped up after checking-in. They cut them to size and four pieces …

A Short Visit to Sunset (Around 19th and Taraval)

***** — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 16:22:24 +0000

There is a library here. I never knew that. I spent enough time around here and now go to training soon. There aren’t many places around here: Safeway and Walgreens and a KFC are the chain stores at the extremes of Taraval. Martial Arts is popular around here being East Asian in population. Several Sushi …

Sometimes the vendors do a very good job of displaying the goods.
