The runway at the Dutch side of St Maarten is right on the edge of a public beach. Getting shots like these has been in my Photography Bucket List for a while now. Hopefully this year.

    The Kardashian mentions how much attention is paid, not how much attention is deserved, so naming the unit after someone who is famous for being famous seems appropriate.

    Brilliant. Ethan Zuckerman proposes measuring attention with a unit of measure called a Kardashian.

    Excellent post about how Twitter in the end will be the big winner rather than Facebook.

    Slow and steady always wins the race. Always. Its what I believe in when it comes to FRISKY and in everything else I try to do.

    Watch the trailer for JJ Abrams’ new TV show Revolution. Looks good but then so did Alcatraz, which turned out to be a dud. Lets hope this lives up to the hype.

    RIP so-called Social Readers. The Facebook Social Reader is the worst piece of crap ever. You click on an article your friend supposedly read and instead of taking you to the story, it takes you to an app. Thats when I closed the app and never went to the story. I wasnt the only one.

    Fascinating story of American Airlines’ AAirPass - an all-you-can-fly elite program that you can purchase for $350,000. Considering how much you can travel (unlimited, first class), I think $350K is a great deal if you have the money. And time I guess.

    The San Pelligrino 50 Best Restaurants in the World list is better than the Michelin list, and their 2012 ratings are right on.

Another one to watch out for next year: Atera in New York.
