Mac and PC users alike can download the Safari 3 Public Beta today. In addition, Apple has completely redesigned the Apple.com website and is featuring a [...]
Workout-wise, Wednesdays are tough since they generally include some form of tempo running, a run at near maximum sustainable effort. Today I had to do a one hour and fifteen minute run with fifty minutes at tempo. Oye. I was pretty sure that running back and forth along Chrissy Field wouldn’t provide enough of a [...]
Well, it’s official — TrendMedia has moved from its original offices (a desk in my kitchen) to 1 Sutter Street, the Flatiron Building, Suite 201.

Yesterday, Jojo, a group of triathlon buddies and I posted our last ride together and snapped a few pictures along the way. Good luck in Texas, Traci and Jojo! Hope we get to [...]
Music is important again. Everywhere you go it’s virtually impossible not to see someone sporting white headphones on a morning jaunt, tapping honeydew melons in the produce section, or boogying while folding laundry at the corner wash and spin. Yes, music is back, and it’s no doubt thanks to the ubiquitous nature of the sleek [...]
Woe to the techies. A study commissioned by e-learning provider Skillsoft found that of 3,000 people surveyed, IT experts were more likely than any other professional to suffer from stress. 97 percent of all IT professionals surveyed reported daily stress related to workload, deadlines, feeling undervalued, and having to take on other people’s work.
