Introduction

The name may be a little narcissistic but the blog will prove not to be. I tried some of my other, perhaps more clever names, but the blogosphere seems quite crowded these days and I'm sick of getting "the blog you requested is not available."

So what is the site about? The idea is to provide readers with quality websites, programs, restaurants etc. To that end, the site covers just about anything. The tech stuff (i.e. websites) will be easy--the idea is that my Mom can follow. My favorite things are food, technology, NYC (now that I'm living here), travel, and getting things a little less expensively (okay, cheaper) than the next guy.

This blog is also my initial foray into a commercial blog. It is my first attempt and while I don't plan on making a living out of this site, I hope I can generate enough traffic to buy a beer or two on the weekend. There might be links to Amazon for a particular product I like, there will be Google Ads, and perhaps a banner or two. So if you like the site, do tell your friends. Or save it to Delicious. Or Digg. Or email it to someone else. Comments are always appreciated as well.
