I'm digging this so far. Visual-based search. You start browsing ... articulate what you like as you browse, even highlight a part of an existing item that you like and it finds similar items based on that quality -- I mean, COOL. Within 30 sec...

My latest creation

nobody@vox.com(Erin) — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 19:22:47 -0400

I've had a supremely productive weekend. Went to Ali's baby shower yesterday. Took a looooong nap after that. Ran errands once I finally woke up. Mustered up the energy to go out Saturday night, which is surprisingly rare. Headed into the off...

Ben's hot new wheels

nobody@vox.com(Erin) — Sun, 20 Apr 2008 11:41:14 -0400

Look! ... Isn't he so cute?!?! Omg, I love it. Here's what my sister had to say in her email with the picture: Here is a picture of Ben in his new Jeep the first time we put it together and took it outside. We made it drive around the yard ...

Hotels need to label things more clearly

I almost put lotion (instead of conditioner) on my hair in the shower this morning. THAT would have been a disaster.

Oh yeah, did I mention that I'm Southern?

nobody@vox.com(Erin) — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 21:23:48 -0400

I'm in Athens, GA, for about a day. And it is very clear that I have Southern roots. My top priorities while I'm here include: Chic-fil-A Mellow Mushroom and Waffle HouseConsumed in that order, actually. Yay. :)

Okay, that's it. Next year, I'm using a "tax guy."

I like H&R Block's online taxes feature because it does make it relatively easy to file your taxes online. But this year, I still ended up paying more than $1000 in additional taxes. I mean, come ON! (Sigh) I admit. Looks like I need a litt...

Delayed postcards

nobody@vox.com(Erin) — Sun, 13 Apr 2008 22:23:14 -0400

I just came across a few postcards from my trip to Europe that I didn't get a chance to mail while I was over there. I'll be dropping them in the mail tomorrow, so be on the lookout for some very late European postcards with a DC postmark! :)

Finished uploading videos!

nobody@vox.com(Erin) — Sun, 06 Apr 2008 09:44:48 -0400

They're nothing spectacular -- trust me -- but they do showcase some of the cool places we visited. Each was shot on my little Canon PowerShot ... so yes ... they are a little shaky. But whatevs. Enjoy! (They're all in the right sidebar, under...

Andrea, I wanted to buy this dress for you ...

nobody@vox.com(Erin) — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 20:36:25 -0400

... but couldn't afford it. :( But hey, it's Tommy Hilfiger, so you should be able to get it in the States! And hopefully, you'll like the little something I was able to get for you in Paris. :)
