A Day In San Francisco: Video

A Day In San Francisco from Daniel Myers on Vimeo.

After a Revolve show in Sacramento, I spent an extra day with my friend Sean doing some sight-seeing in & around San Francisco. We only had one day but we got to see a lot of fun stuff around the city including Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge!

The Endless Cycle…

I know that history repeats itself, but this is crazy. Taken from the introduction to The Beloit College Mindset List for the Class of 2013:

"If the entering college class of 2013 had been more alert back in 1991 when most of them were born, they would now be experiencing a severe case of déjà vu. The headlines that year railed about government interventions, bailouts, bad loans, unemployment and greater regulation of the finance industry. The Tonight Show changed hosts for the first time in decades, and the nation asked “was Iraq worth a war?”

The list itself is an incredible read, for these students:

- The European Union has always existed.

- Smokers have never been promoted as an economic force that deserves respect.

- Most communities have always had a mega-church.

- For one reason or another, California’s future has always been in doubt.

It's amazing how fast time goes by and how quickly some things change, equally amazing is how some other things never change.

Sad to see tr.im go

I was saddened today to learn that my favorite URL shortening service tr.im has shutdown (CNET article here). Apparently they decided there was no way to ever monetize the venture so it was best to shut it down now. I must confess, I don't fully understand the Silicon Valley business models that allow companies (i.e. Twitter) to operate on such a large scale with no primary source of income, but that's a whole other discussion. In anycase, I appreciated tr.im while it was around and am sad to see it go...
