Behind the Lens
Tue, 22 Apr 2008 14:10:13 PDT
Behind the Lens April 22nd, 2008 I defy the trends. I am what my husband calls the opposite of the unification trend. His career involves working with, writing and speaking about and reviewing the latest techno-geeky stuff which, right now, happens to be Unified Communications. Back when his work involved mostly anti-virus stuff, I refused to use AV software (still do). My theory on anti-virus protection can be summed up like this: Don’t be an idiot. Harsh, I know. But I’ve never had a viru

Observations of the Mortgage Market
Tue, 22 Apr 2008 14:24:41 PDT
Over the past two weeks I've had the opportunity to speak with dozens of potential home buyers around the country. Here are some of the key trends/takeaways I've noticed. 1. People in formerly bubble markets - California & Florida specifically - are excited at the prospect of more affordable housing. The question of prices dropping further is not a consideration, affordable monthly payments are. 2. Most people are unaware of the changes in the credit markets. Some are still looking for sta
80’s Throwback That Works: Givenchy Jelly Gladiators
Tue, 22 Apr 2008 14:31:51 PDT
I know I made a big stink about jelly shoes making a comeback a few weeks ago (referencing the unwarranted resurrection of cheesy 80’s trends), but after seeing these Givenchy Jelly Gladiators, I’ve officially had a change of heart. We all know by now that gladiator sandals are going to be all the rage this summer. ...]

A Flex-ible Real Estate Investment . . . The Trend Towards Increased Warehousing
Tue, 22 Apr 2008 14:48:25 PDT
There are several trends I’ve seen emerging. One has to do with cyber-shopping — online buying seems to be a trend that will only increase. Nothing is ever certain in our fast-changing world, but the convenience of cyber-shopping seems to have taken hold as consumers gradually get over the distrust of online buying and break their dependency of mall addiction. From recent observation I’d say the mall addiction hasn’t been altered drastically, but common sense tells me more and more people wil

First exit poll data
Tue, 22 Apr 2008 14:52:43 PDT
Via CNN: Seniors: 61C, 38O White male: 55C, 45O Blacks: 8C, 92O 42 percent say US is in serious recession. 2 1/2 hours from polls closing. Will update as new numbers come in. Update: Exit poll data is somewhat good at gauging demographic trends, NOT for predicting the final results. I won't run "final result" numbers since they're almost always wrong. Update II: Late deciders: 58C, 42O
