Walking along the Embarcadero
I can’t help but feel that walking is the best way to get to know another city. And it is easy to take a walking tour of San Francisco, just following the Embarcadero. Here are some stops we made along the way. Fisherman’s Wharf: We stopped here for people watching, and to take in the…

Getting the best view of the Golden Gate Bridge
As a visitor to San Francisco, I of course needed to see the Golden Gate Bridge. We drove to the observation deck. I was prepared for picturesque views. I was not prepared to have to fight to see them. The first battle was parking. The lot was tight, with few spaces, but a long line…

This San Francisco chocolate tourist site is way overrated. Here is where I’d tell you to go instead.
The Ghiradelli Chocolate Experience. I had such high expectations, but alas it is not accurately named.

It’s just marketing: Earth Month edition
I came across an article on Vogue Business discussing why they didn’t cover any Earth Month fashion initiatives. The short answer- no one is really doing enough work to warrant a post. It got me thinking about how sustainability has moved from authentic concern for the earth to is turning in to a buzz word.…

Bad reviews are good
Word on the street is that MKBHD destroys companies with his bad reviews. Somehow I doubt that. (He does, too) But, the idea that that a creator shouldn’t upload negative reviews? That is something we should think through. Let’s get this out of the way. Negative reviews are not bad; they are information. Regardless from…
