X Factor is gripped by Tillicoultry fever as neighbours take to streets in support of Gamu

instagr.am
Like this app a lot. Best way to describe it is “Visual Twitter”. Crazy simple to quickly snap and share a photo, and get a stream of what your friends are up to. (Also: fellow Dogpatch Labs residents, and Mike is on the Awesome Foundation SF board.)
BBC Sport - Liverpool to be bought by Boston Red Sox owners
Seems like a good match, both in terms of cities and teams. John Henry has been a great principal owner for the Sox organization.

Costco - Shelf Reliance THRIVE 1-year Supply Dehydrated & Freeze-Dried Food
Includes “3 Cans of Bacon Textured Vegetable Protein (47 servings per can)”. In case anyone was wondering what to get me for my birthday… (Make sure and read the reviews)

Bose VideoWave Entertainment System
Congrats to the folks at Bose for getting this out. I remember listening to the early prototypes in 2007, and being hugely impressed with the sound. (But ouch! What a price tag!) Will be heading into a Bose store in the next few weeks to see the demo!
