Happy Places (you should be here)
- Tweetage Wasteland “Confessions of an Internet Superhero”. Sometimes it can get a bit formulaic, yes but the writing. The writing! So good. This is probably the father I am going to be. She’s already been warned.
- Daring Fireball Mac nerdery…and more. John Gruber’s incisive look at Apple, web development, user interface design and various and sundry other subjects. My first stop.
- You're Not so Smart David McRaney’s You Are Not So Smart is a blog that assails our belief that we are in control of our motivations, thoughts and feelings. But it’s not depressing. No, really.

I’m glad to see I’m not the only one who had this opinion/quandary with Ritual’s Matalapa. I was told by a barista there that part of its award-winningness had to do with the fact that judges viewed it as an amazing “all day” coffee – one that you can drink all day without your palate getting tired. If true, this strikes me as an interesting way to think about coffee and not necessarily one that’s tuned in with what matters to consumers.

Now that is a peculiar judging factor. I guess that if you were a roaster, you might find it important to have a coffee on hand that you could drink all day long but, indeed, that is not what your average customer is after when they decide which bag they are going pick up off of the counter. Nice, though, that it furthers my point, I must say.
