the Books: Building Our Home →

I generally dont reblog, but I’m making an exception for this. thebooksmusic: Hey All, Nick here. I originaly wrote this for Impose Magazine, as part of their friends with benefits section. It’s the condensed story of how my wife, Molly, and I built our home in Vermont… I’d...

“I am writing to let you know that one of your photos has been short-listed for inclusion in the ninth edition of our Schmap Brighton Guide, to be published mid-November 2009.” How kind of Schmap there. They chose this one apparently.

Japan trip, episode 2 This one walks around Harajuku a bit, then ventures literally around the corner for the incredibly contrasting surroundings at Meiji Jingu. There’s also some stuff about a toilet.

A thought

Just one I had on the bog… I think there’s room for a cod-hacker-themed iPhone game, along the lines of Introversion’s Uplink, with a super-sexy swipey, slidey, zoomy interface.
