Washington DC: More than museums and monuments

nobody@vox.com(Susi) — Fri, 04 Jan 2008 23:14:46 +0100

I'm catching up on my blogging: Here are my impressions from a long weekend in Prague in August of 2007. To state it bluntly, Prague is everything it's cranked up to be :) People come to Prague for the history, the architecture, the beer. And th...

What I'm currently listening to

What do you think of my brand new Jango jukebox? I'm beta testing the social music service Jango and they just launched this new jukebox widget which lets you embed a player with your favorite tunes on your blog. And it works nicely here on Vox. ...

My Best Berlin Photos

nobody@vox.com(Susi) — Sun, 09 Dec 2007 20:57:38 +0100

I visited Berlin during the last days of November. The weather was cold and clear and even though I was there to attend a conference, I had the chance to take a day off and see some of Berlin's sites. Some of the highlights were lunch in the cool...

Summer memories from Thailand

nobody@vox.com(Susi) — Sat, 10 Nov 2007 17:36:17 +0100

Today, when I was out for my Saturday walk, there was ice on the fjord for the first time this year. That means it's time to brace for winter by delighting in summer memories. This summer we visited Thailand for the first time. It was one of my ...

These days I find myself spending a lot of time on Fanpop, a network of user-generated fansites for different topics of interest created and maintained by the community of fans. Fanpop is a charming community and I find the interaction on the fan...
