Beaches are the Valium of the travel world. They soothe, they relax, they make you realize that “real life” occasionally needs escaping.
Most of all, these slivers of sand against the ocean are a reminder that the world can be quite beautiful.

Excerto: “Vietnamese cuisine doesn’t win any points for complexity. Many of the most popular dishes can be made just as well on the side of the road as in a top-end restaurant.

With the announcements of Facebook’s “frictionless sharing” and Amazon’s Fire color Kindle, my colleagues Joe Brockmeier and Richard MacManus have both weighed in on their thoughts about where the modern Web is going. I think both opinion pieces hold some worthy points, but I have my own fears and thoughts. It comes down to whom do you trust more to own your data: Facebook, Google or Amazon.
