What the heck is Steampunk?
We’ve all heard about Steampunk, but what the heck is it? We interviewed four very popular folks in the Steampunk subculture to find out more about the movement that’s inspiring folks to create their own fashion, music, gear, and art while turning a few heads along the way. The New York Times wrote a wonderful piece about it in May, so if you haven’t heard about Steampunk, maybe it’s time you became a little more acquainted with it. Watch the video.
Update: If you live in the SF Bay Area, check out the The California Steampunk Convention in October.

Why, oh why is it whenever you finally take a leap of faith and drop top-dollar on the latest, most up to date cell phone, one week later they release it in your favorite color?? I hope I’m not the only Diva this has happened to! Well, as my luck would have it, less than a month after purchasing my Blackberry Pearl, Verizon Wireless has released it in a stunning, metallic pastel pink. Pretty in Pink indeed! www.Verizonwireless.com/pinkpearl
