About
The blog about both fashion design and web design, with some more geeky and stylish bits. (Used to be a girly gadget blog.) Also, you can order theme or site setup work from me to get your blog or CMS truly powered-up and gorgeous - easy (and customized!) for you, fun for me. Soon I will have a little shop set up but for now, you can contact me to get the conversation rolling.

Hoping to land a new job with a nice comfortable middle income, and also realizing even my small bags are now large enough for non-tiny phones (was part of my quest), and well—-a phone is a phone based on its features, but there are always PINK cases…….so….. Well we’ve all been seeing the awesome iPhone [...]

Fun tidbit. Yesterday’s Jeopardy geeked out, or perhaps, “leeted” (or l33ted? ok I’m not a “member”) out with one of their “clues”. To paraphrase: What search engine is spelled out in this “leet” language: 600673 (.com) ? The answer after this…
Cell Phone Trends – Is Red the new…PINK?!
Oh no, say anything but… is pink out in the mobile world? Sure, T-Mobile (Mr. Pink themselves) and Verizon, Sprint… have great new phones in pink (stay tuned for some of these)… but AT&T (a bit of a leader since the iPhone) only has slightly older models in the shade(s).

“Green” MacBook? Apple.com Leaves us Green with Envy

Tetris Clutch Purse
I may be a computer whiz now, and though I’m generally a fast learner, some technologies take me a while. Things like cell phones did, and now it’s the Facebook (mostly the new ver.) that gets me with its bugs and general lack of untuitive flow – yes, I blame FB. Anyway, one thing I [...]

French Accent Character in Re-Captcha?
When Language comes into play(ed with) on the World Wide Web… is the functionality of code lost in translation? Stupidity wins another battle in our society, unfortunately. I just found the word, “crêpes” in a ReCaptcha box. Yes, it displayed the character “ê“. Sensing it wouldn’t even accept the correct visual – and correct spelling [...]
