15sharesThe results of the Canadian Blog Awards are in… *drumroll*… and Miss604.com has been ranked the 3rd best local blog in the country. Considering that the bulk of Canadians voters are (as usual) back East, and that I was the only blog from BC nominated in this category, I find this a great feat and […]

8sharesAs stated when I first started making my site open for advertisements, I will always disclose when a blog post is a part of a paid advertisement. As I choose my advertisers probably as carefully as they choose me, I make sure to proudly support local business. My latest advertiser has opted in for a […]

5sharesI’ve done my fair share of liveblogging over the past few years, and I’ve even written a brief “How to Live Blog” entry. Many people have offered tips and tricks to help the process go smoothly and I think I’ve pretty much got my method down to a science. However, this morning Tod sent me […]

111sharesOne of the most influential, innovative, and important filmmakers of all time once drove a motorized handcar across Canada. Always a fan of trains and railways, Buster Keaton filmed The Railrodder in 1964 for the National Film Board of Canada, his terminus being White Rock, BC.

All of my desktop that is. “Show Me Your Desktop” is an opportunity to find out more about bloggers around the world while getting a sneak peek at their desktops, […]

8sharesContrary to popular belief, Mount Washington is not in America. Photo credit: Keira-Anne on Flickr I’ve heard the rumours and I have to say, they’re all true. From the Hawk 6ix Pack (and the Hawk Dog Stand) to the Rainbow Rollers, I got my butt kicked by Mt. Washington today and I pretty much loved […]

8sharesFor months Duane was sitting there at the top of the Google heap when you searched “Vancouver Blogger“. He went entirely unnoticed til this guy decided to challenge him in the weeks leading up to Northern Voice. Soon after, Boris stealthily threw his hat in the ring and the plot thickened. If you’d like to […]

7sharesSomeone was just mentioned something about Pets.com, which instantly made me picture their sock dog mascot (which incidentally lead Pets.com to sue Conan O’Brien’s show over “Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog“). Thinking back to the days of the dotcom BOOM I remember where I was when it all went down… during the BUST. I was […]

8sharesI’ve been so busy recently that I haven’t had time to cover everything I’ve wanted to on the blog. I also haven’t had a lot of time to just chill out with John or my family even though they’re the most important things in the world to me. After waiting almost two years, John‘s immigration […]
