So by now, the masses of caffeine addicts own a single cup coffee brewing system. These were all the rage this past year, and now Starbucks is making it easy to get these addicts a gift. Introducing Starbucks coffee in K-Cups singles!
Available in six coffees and two teas, your caffeine-drinking friend will surely love these K-Cups as a gift!
Google+ opened up its social service to include businesses, organizations, and brands earlier this week. And what better way to learn about Google+ Pages other than having your own Page? With that simple logic, let me introduce Pulpconnection on Google+ Pages.
Here’s the direct (and ugly looking) link:
https://plus.google.com/108377264798538201770
What can you expect here? My initial thoughts are to use this channel as a behind-the-scenes stream of consciousness for content and posts. Yes, it’s not a new concept but hey, at least I have an idea, right?
So anyways, stop by and visit and even circle Pulpconnection. As a thank you for adding Pulpconnection to your G+ circles, I have a gift (and I’m breaking the piggy bank on this one). For the first 10 Pulp-sters (individuals, not brands) who add Pulpconnection to their Google+ circles, I’ll gift to you either:
Thanks, enjoy, and +1!
My migration to Aperture 3 from iPhoto 11 is still underway. I decided to make the move to take advantage of Aperture’s advanced organization and photo library management.
Some background. I’ve been an iPhoto fan since its introduction. It served me well more or less over the years. I did encounter a corrupt library or two but managed to recover using its own utilities or the great iPhoto Library Manager (IPLM). Over the years, I had created several libraries to manage each library size. The biggest problem with this is having to switch libraries to find old pictures. Wanting to have access to all my pictures, I used IPLM to consolidate all my libraries into one. This consolidation along with high resolution images from my DSLR was too much for iPhoto 11. It would take minutes to launch and several seconds to do basic tasks like viewing pictures. Yes, I could delete pictures but with the hard drive capacities getting bigger and bigger, why should I?
So I decided to switch to Aperture 3 (which was on sale during the launch of the Mac App Store). Following the instructional video, I did the iPhoto Library import using the “in their current location” option. That import process on a 316 GB iPhoto library took nearly a day.
After the import, Aperture begins working on behind-the-scenes tasks like identifying faces and processing each image. This process takes a long time.
As of yet, I can’t comment about Aperture’s performance since it’s still chugging away. So far, it’s created a 8+ GB library file based on my 316-GB iPhoto library.
More to come later…
But if you can’t wait one more year, you can assemble your own Inky Red Cup by printing the design and taping it over your grande drink.
Or so says traffic analytics from Lijit. Though the visits may be legit, my site got slammed earlier today, taking if offline. Polish coincidence or is some bogus site crawling around for no good?
Can you see it, Justin Bieber and Marian Yeater?
No matter what happens with the upcoming paternity test, I still feel violated.
Even though I’m a fan of Penny Hardaway’s kicks, I don’t know how many different styles he wore in his rookie year in the League. Whatever they were, design elements from each were taken to create this new takeoff, the Nike Zoom Rookie.
Now, I think this Zoom Rookie could be the Nike-sponsored team shoe for college basketball 2012. It shows well in various color combinations, and they are definitely eye-catching. But, the price is probably too high to outfit collegiate teams across the country.
You can get your own pair starting November 12.
What else do you need to know except that the Air Jordan 11 aka the “Concords” are coming back on December 23, 2011.
I’ve had other colorways of the AJ11 but never the OG version. Maybe it’s time…
So you’re the pre-season top ranked college basketball team who’s going to kick off the season playing a game on a Navy aircraft carrier on national television. Yes, the North Carolina Tar Heels can wear specially designed jerseys in a sky blue, camo color palette.
Just listing some useful links that I’ve referenced.
While I’ve had an account with Lijit for some time, I never really maximized the service. I started playing with it a bit more, and their reported demographics for Pulpconnection readers goes like this.
Is that you, my pulpy reader? Are you a youngish, college educated, single caucasian female with no children? It doesn’t really matter to me. I love all my visitors! 🙂
I had heard of the House of Hoops designation for select Foot Locker retail locations. The Ala Moana Foot Locker recently became a new member of the House of Hoops (and probably the only one for Hawaii). So what does that mean? It means more kicks!
We’re talking more basketball shoes, colorways, and baller gear that’s limited to House of Hoops locations. The back of the Ala Moana store has been carved out and transformed into the House of Hoops. If you’re walking on the court floor, you’re in the right place.
In the House of Hoops, you’ll find crazy colorways of Nike shoes. And of course, for all you pickup ballers, you know the advantage of colorful kicks and apparel right? That’s right, your ad hoc teammates will notice your flash and pass you the rock more. It’s true. You can’t pass to a teammate you don’t see. So when your PG see these colors in the corner of his eye, you know the rock is coming your way.
When you talk hoops, His Airness must be represented.
Off the court, you still need to come proper so the AF1 must be part of your shoe rotation.
For the out-of-state visitors, a must have are these 808 tees.
The Honolulu House of Hoops is definitely a welcomed addition to the Islands.
