iPad...there is a new kid in town

Blackberry is coming out with a new and improved version of the iPad. Looks like I was smart to wait. I wonder what the price point will be on it?

Why? Just Why? & How much did this cost?

I live in Boston now, but I truly find this article to be the icing on the cake.
Here is Cambridge, MA, they are putting tickets on cars with yoga positions.
Before you all think that I am crazy here, yes, you heard me, real parking tickets.

If you have ever had the displeasure of having to park in Cambridge, MA, you know that you have to be quick.
Several quarters will only buy you 1/2 an hour. When you are running into a real estate office to sign offer paperwork on a house, you soon realize how quick that half hour can go and also how quick the parking wardens can be around these parts.

One thing I have experienced for sure in Cambridge that bonds all kinds of people together is the mutual hatred of the dreaded parking ticket. Cambridge is extremely famous for giving tickets as a revenue source.

Good Day!

Please find a URL to a story below that illustrates why when creating a private event/party, to be sure to uncheck the "anyone can view and RSVP".

Even better, why not send out proper physical invitations?

If you must use an online service, I do love eVite.com.

I think that they have a nice intimate event planning site.I am a big fan of that site as you can upload/share your photos of the event afterwards as well.
