We headed out to Burbank, California for the annual ANME Founders Show about a week ago. It’s a tradeshow where we go to meet, talk, see new products, and spend some face-to-face time with industry colleagues. Deals are made, new friendships are formed, old friends share stories from their year – it’s pretty great, actually. [...]

Want the inside scoop on the recent April Flores Love Toy Art Shows that Eden put on? Of course you do. As some people may know, this whole thing was born of a simple conversation back in July…when I met April and Carlos at ANE out in LA. I mentioned the art show that they [...]

BlogHer ’09: It Almost Ate Me Alive, But I’ve Lived to Tell the Tale

Thursday: the alarm clock buzzed at its usual time, and I popped out of bed ready and excited for my first trip to BlogHer. This year, it took place in the windy city—Chicago—home of the Cubs, Sears Tower, Deep Dish Pizza, and 1,400 rambunctious bloggers. I was Chicago-bound—or so I thought.

Our adventures in Cali: Day 6 – homeward bound As I mentioned in my last post, I had to be up with the sun for my shuttle to airport. They insist on picking you up crazy early to ensure you make it 2 hours prior to your flight. So, I threw the last of my [...]
