the upside to peer1 is that it's on the 21st floor in downtown vancouver and has an awesome view. the downside? well, we'll get to that in due course. » « 19:39 01/02/05 | permalink | peer1 colo vancouver photos

'vancouver' magazine (yeah, snappy title) has photos of the awesome-looking millenium line skytrain stations. the station shown (brentwood) is probably worth checking out in person, and i intend to when i get the time. » « 23:38 11/10/04 | permalink | design vancouver

lunch today with robert scoble (microsoft), tim bray (w3c/xml) and some other geeks in vancouver. after scoble mentioned that he'd given bill a demo of flickr (woo!), he spoke about how he searches weblogs (via technorati) for microsoft product mentions, then in the case of somebody complaining about a feature, forwards a link to the person in charge of the product. i mean, wow. if you post on your weblog about some missing feature in outlook, the outlook project manager might well end up reading that. who would have thought that ms was such a responsive company? » « 21:51 28/03/04 | permalink | geek software vancouver

my world has fallen apart. and we're racing across vancouver at 8pm in the pouring rain, trying to get to ikea, of all places, to eat meatballs. with a couple of minutes to spare, after some poor navigation, me make it in time. of all the places to be rushing to eat in. i think part of the company ethos is that we fill every second with stuff - a natural adjunct to this is that we do everything at the last second. this really annoys cat, but i like it. it makes it all seem alive. i definately need that right now. » « 22:40 25/03/04 | permalink | vancouver

buses in vancouver look like grasshoppers. when viewed from above at least. the two metal pantographs which join them to the overhead power cables looks like antennas. just so you know. » « 13:06 05/03/04 | permalink | vancouver

oooh - comic fest in vancouver in a few weeks. i might just go along to this. » « 23:09 04/03/04 | permalink | language vancouver

vancouver airport is by far the most beautiful i have seen. by really really far. clean crisp lines, beautiful structure and bizarre indoor outdoor scenes, with a mini-waterfall scene. unlike anything i've ever seen. people should learn from this. the only other airport that's interested me was paris cdg - a huge concrete spider, with a web of moving walkways in the centre. fun, but feels old. vancouver feels new. aren't they building some hyper-architectural airport in china somewhere (spotted in wallpaper), or was that a seaport? » « 20:42 04/03/04 | permalink | vancouver

only a few days in vancouver and i find myself hoplessly addicted to jolt cola. with a seven-eleven about 10 metres from the office, i'm doomed to a sugary death. yay! » « 20:38 04/03/04 | permalink | geek vancouver
