A new outdoor mall opened up in town last weekend and I went with the family today to check it out.
The highlight for the kiddos was the Puma Store. My son, Asher, found a cool hat and my oldest daughter, Emma, loves the shoes. Ava, well… she was blowing lots of bubbles so I think she liked it too. My mom and wife Holly were shopping away, and I was just looking forward to Peet’s and the Apple Store.
And it is confirmed… Apple is definitely for the cool kids. The Apple store is sweet, but I certainly did not fit into the crowd. The average age in the store was probably 18 or so and it felt like a party in there. The space was simple, functional, and all about style. I was very impressed… this is a very cool store!

Once again Yahoo Answers on my mobile phone saved the day. Mobile Ask is so cool!
I was at dinner tonight with my folks and brother and somehow we got into a discussion about animals which led to a debate over the name of baby foxes. Me and my brother said pups, my dad said welts (or something like that), and my mom said kids.
Mobile Ask saved the day… I typed in “baby” fox and got the answer in a few seconds - kits. Thanks Yahoo. My mom was closest to the right answer. Further digging revealed that pups was acceptable too. Yeh!

Mobile Ask really came in handy and put this discussion to bed in a hurry. I am sure you’ve been in a similar situation where you got a nagging question and don’t have a computer nearby to get the answer. Mobile Ask can make it better… why not just Google you might say. Well, Google “baby fox†and see what you get – not much hey? Now, think how painful it would be to drill down to an answer on your phone.
Yahoo Answers on my phone is pretty cool.
