• An Eco-Friendly Holiday Gift Idea November 21, 2011
  With the holidays fast approaching, I wanted to help make people's shopping a little easier. If you have anyone on your list who eats food, I have a great idea for you: Eco-Chopsticks.
• Changing Conversation on capsun.org with Livefyre November 14, 2011
  Disclosure: Livefyre is the exclusive sponsor of BlogcastFM, where I serve as Editor-in-Chief and receive compensation. However, I was neither paid nor asked to write this post. I first saw Livefyre in action when my friend John Garcia deployed it on NonStopHonolulu.com back in August 2010. It took me a while to work out the kinks in [...]
• Recapping BlogWorld LA 2011 #BWELA November 8, 2011
  As I promised in my last post, I did attempt  to liveblog from my BlogWorld conference. Unfortunately, time and technology prevented me from doing a true liveblog (where it is updated continuously). Instead, I tweeted like crazy from the conference and posted recaps to the BlogcastFM website. You can find a brief description of the [...]
• Live-Blogging from BlogWorld LA #BWELA November 3, 2011
  I’m currently in Los Angeles attending the BlogWorld LA conference. As part of my duties for BlogcastFM, I plan to live-blog (on blogcastfm.com) and live-tweet from the event which starts today and runs through Saturday at the Los Angeles Convention Center. (Disclosure: BlogcastFM is an official BlogWorld Media Partner and I received a Full Access [...]
• Finding My Way – to BlogcastFM November 3, 2011
  Anyone who knows me even a little knows that I always have to be busy doing something. It’s one of the many ways I take after my Chinese mother. I rarely take vacations, and when I do, they are usually a day or two. I have a day job, a side business, consult for several [...]
• The Gender-Differentiated Surprise Effect: Surprises – Good Or Bad? October 26, 2011
  Recently, I got to celebrate my friend Jenn’s birthday. And in typical fashion for an event planned by females, it was a surprise. A well-kept one, I might add, because this is what she looked like when she realized we were all gathered to surprise her: But that got me thinking about something I’ve thought [...]
• Taking the Ten App Challenge October 24, 2011
  A while ago, my friend Neenz Faleafine wrote a post about the 10 apps that she uses on her iPhone. I think you’re supposed to pick the ten that you don’t come pre-installed on the iPhone. So, if you could only choose ten apps that you could put on your iPhone, in addition to Apple’s [...]
• Gathering a Goldilocks Group for Great Aloha Run October 12, 2011
  I have a confession: I have never participated in any run/walk/race/marathon or similar event. You see, I always used to blame timing or inconvenience, but it was really about not having the desire to put myself through it, no matter how short or easy an event might be. Until now. I’m in decent enough shape [...]
• iPhone 4S = iPhone For Steve October 6, 2011
  After the premature, but not entirely unexpected, death of Apple founder, longtime CEO, and Executive Chairman Steve Jobs yesterday, there have been many tributes, remembrances and reflections. Originally, I was going to write something, but then I saw my friend Jonathan’s tribute, iThank Steve and honestly believe I couldn’t have said it any better. If you’ […]
• Questioning My Apple Faith October 5, 2011
  OK, it hasn’t been quite two months since my last post, so I am getting a little better at being more “regular” here. Anyone who knows me even somewhat knows I love Apple and all their products. I may not love their pricepoint, but I definitely love the technology, design, and how things just work. [...]
