In the Sphere: Mountains and Mexican Food
Posted on December 11th, 2009
It’s time for another tour of the blogosphere, so let’s see what the bloggers had to say this week.
Jake Tobin Garrett loves the Vancouver skyline as much as the next person. That’s one of the major reasons why Vancouver is one of the most desirable cities in the world. That’s why it’s intriguing to consider the tradeoff between mountains and metropolis when it comes to request for the construction of buildings taller than the current height limit. Jake says these should be considered on a case-to-case basis.
The Teen Geek doesn’t seem to think that Internet Explorer or Safari even factors into this discussion, because he has decided that Chrome is better than Firefox. I prefer using Google Chrome as my main web browser too, mostly because it provides a cleaner and simpler appearance. What do you use as your main browser? Why?
Ed Lau likes to eat and he likes to eat good food. While moseying around downtown, he discovered the great Mexican food at La Taqueria along with Ben of Chowtimes and Angie of SeaSaltwithFood. They were all invited by Kevin from 604Foodtography and had a great time munching on some great soft tacos. I’m a little partial to Doña Cata on Victoria Drive, myself.
Rebecca Bollwitt, who is better known in many circles as Miss604, reports on the new observation area at the airport. Even if you don’t have a ticket to fly away that day, you can go to this special area to learn a little bit about BC while you watch as the planes take off and land on the tarmac. This is a great outing with the kids and, with the new Canada Line, getting to YVR is easier than ever.
Neil Patel of Quick Sprout knows a thing or two about making a buck, but he also reminds that you getting rich quickly will make you poor. If someone is trying to sell you on a “get rich quick” scheme, you have to realize that 99% of the people who try it will probably fail. The people who do manage to achieve quick success are either very lucky or have something special that you probably don’t.

Hey thanks for the mention!
Hi! I’m Zagorath from The Teen Geek. I was the one who wrote that article on theteengeek.com
My honest opinion on the discussion is that they are in fact equal. I honestly don’t think that IE should factor into this much at all, but Safari certainly does. I’ve used Safari on a Mac, and I loved it. The fact that I didn’t mention it in this article is stated in the lead; I responded to what someone else was saying about Firefox vs. Chrome.
Thanks a HEAP for the mention though!
I like bloggers that are blogging just to share something with another people. I understand that for many a blog can be source of money, and there is nothing wrong with that, but the very essence of blogging can be sometimes misunderstood. I think that anyone who blog because of some kind of a need inside is great.
