More insights about the demise of the still popular Flip video recorder.
Seems like the Flip still had lots of life and business in its product, line but Cisco still pulled the plug.

DWTS Best of Week 4
What does Dancing with the Stars competitor, Hines Ward, think about the Karate Kid, Ralph Macchio, reenacting “The Crane” in one of his dances?
Q: Can you convince Ralph Macchio that he has to use “The Crane” during one of his dances?
Haha. I don’t think Ralph needs much convincing to do that. My guess is that that may be his secret weapon and we may see it at some point during the competition. I would love to see it myself.
from the Los Angeles Times.
For Week 4 of Dancing with the Stars, I have to go back to Mark Ballas and Chelsea Kane as one of my favorites. That Viennese Waltz was truly enchanting.
And speaking of the Karate Kid, here’s Ralph and Karina dancing the waltz. During the entire performance, I kept thinking, “Be strong, Daniel” from the movie Karate Kid.
Yogur Story Is an Oasis of “Ohs”
Gave the unusually named Yogur Story a try this weekend, and it is an oasis of “ohs,” from its location, to its decor, to the beauty of it patrons, to the (oh no) warm food.
Where is Yogur Story? Next to the very green Sorabol on Keeaumoku, down the way from 939. Oh, okay, got it. Oh, that place is huge!
Oh wait, this place serves more than yogurt and dessert right?
Oh nice!
Oh yay, starting off with a peppermint latte.
Oh hey, is that @mirthlab downstairs where all the beautiful people sit? And was that Malika Dudley at another table. Oh wow!
What else can you say but OH! in the bathroom.
Oh, the food sounds so good on the menu and looks oh so good, but… oh no, the food is warm.
Despite the one zing of warm food, you need to give Yogur Story a try. It really isn’t what I expected. On Yelp, Yogur Story has an average of 3.5 stars, and I would have to agree. Would have been 4 to 4.5 stars if the food were hot. Still though amazing design elements, modern with playful twists.
Next time, I’ll have to try the yogurt.
Researching Group Buying Payment and Tracking Apps
Who doesn’t like the deals and discounts offered by group buying services like Groupon, Living Social, Play Hawaii, et alia? What I don’t like is tracking my purchases and redeeming my coupons from these services.
I have to check out some group buying iPhone apps to ease these pains. I’m talking no vouchers to print then forget at home. I not only want to see my purchases, but also be able to redeem my coupons when I visit the physical store similar to Starbucks Mobile Card.
The search begins…
The Magic of the Washing Machine
This one is dedicated to @okaminyc and his weekly pilgrimage to the washing machine. There is something magical about the washing machine, especially at the 7:50 mark in this awesome TED video.
DWTS Best of Week 3
Week 3 of Dancing with the Stars had many solid performances. I enjoyed Mark and Chelsea, but they were my favorites on Week 2 so I want to offer some variety. Kendra and Petra did well, but I wasn’t feeling their dances. I couldn’t decide on one, so I have two favorites from Week 3. The first is Hines Ward and Kym Johnson jiving to the elements otherwise known as Earth, Wind, and Fire.
Second is Kirstie Alley almost busting Maks’ leg only 20 seconds into their Rumba, and what a recovery! The song choice of Brudda Iz Over the Rainbow was a heavenly pick.
“Muffin Top” Is Official
You know about “muffin tops” right? You don’t? You should since the term is now part of the English language. Looking up the definition, you’d find something like this:
the protuberance of fat above the waistband of a tight pair of trousers
Go ahead, use it at work to practice your English mastery. While at it, feel free to use “OMG,” “LOL,” and “TMI.” These are all official as well. Don’t you just “heart” it?
Twilight & Eclipse
Now this is a partnership that had to happen. The supernatural love story of Twilight is still relevant with Breaking Dawn on the horizon. And then there’s Wrigley’s Eclipse gum. So of course, here’s what Wrigley’s Eclipse gum packaging looks like.
Even RPattz would mancrush him some of these.
March Madness 2011 Kicks Analysis #9: The Champ
Let’s roll it back to 1999. Who was the NCAA Men’s Basketball champion that year? Yep, the UConn Huskies wearing Nikes. How’s the kicks champions looked since then?
