How is this visualization different from other alphabet charts? Colors and arrows depict where and how the changes were made, and the letters move around to show exactly we ended up with the 26-letter English alphabet we have today. Please click on through for the full animation, as it is too big (that’s what she […]
How can you help your resumé stand out from the hundreds — and perhaps thousands — of other applicants? Why not go with the popular trend of infographics, graphs, and charts? While not applicable in all instances, you can’t deny that having a visually-appeasing resumé design will help you be more memorable, especially if you are […]
In an effort to encourage parents to get involved in their children’s learning, advertising agency Cramer-Krasselt has teamed up with COA Youth & Family Centers to set up interactive displays — dubbed “Guerilla Classrooms” — around the city of Milwaukee.

I am loving this video about how a Korean grocery store chain successfully brought its store to customers during their commute. How is it different from having just an online store?

It is no secret that my father loves his two daughters and openly tells people over and over again how having two girls has taught him to be more sensitive, more responsible, and a better man in general. And as it was with Claire, it was he who was the happiest to hear the news […]
One…two…three…AWWW! This reminds me of one of my all-time favorite proposal stories, the one of Chris & Esther. The original post on Xanga has since been taken down, but you can read it over here (and yes, I still tear up whenever I read it). Via Geeks are Sexy. P.S. — Did you know that […]

Sometimes I can’t decide if Claire is incredibly lazy, extremely stubborn, exceptionally clever, or all of the above. Case in point: she never rolls anymore.

Courtesy of my new favorite Tumblr blog, I Love Charts. …I’m ashamed to admit that the first time I saw this, I wondered to myself why the chart wasn’t divided into seven equal wedges. P.S. — After another month+ of teething, Claire finally cut her third and fourth teeth today! I had given her […]
I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the "About" page.
