You read this yet?
You should.

It's a mom's letter to her 4 little boys, her super-heroes, and what it means to be a man.

(Warning: It contains the words "rape culture" which I despise to death but it's good. It's really good. She gets it and her boys will too. She, and they will be part of the fix to those words I hate.)

Small steps to solve big issues
I'm sure this was posted while I was gone, but it brought tears to my eyes. My family had to move during the partition and I would often hear my grandma tell me tales of Pakistan or Sindh at that time .. this ad /technology talks about so many possibilities. If something like this was around when my grandma was alive, I can just imagine her tearing up at seeing someone from the other side. 

Well done +Coca-Cola !

I've had this Offline +Gmail extension for +Google Chrome for quite sometime now but I've never used it or looked at it before today.

What I discovered is that it Looks pretty awesome! It takes a lot of the design aspects from iOS +Gmail app and I suspect it looks like the iPad version rather than the iPhone version. 

It looks quite good!!! If you find your regular +Gmail interface too busy. This maybe the way to go. It's sleek and minimal. 

Kudos to the +Gmail team for the design aspects and functionality of the Offline +Gmail Extension!

..::||Introducing The Fantabulas||::..

Hi everyone.
You're probably all wondering why I'm introducing you to +Sabine de Witte. Probably because you haven't met her yet. She's one of the awesome people I've met on Google+ Via the Nearby Stream. I only just realised today that she only has 509 following her. I thought she would have had a couple more 0's the end of that figure. 

I met +Sabine de Witte last June when I was in London, and on a side trip to Estonia, where we ended up eating at some of the same restaurants in Estonia. I was fascinated by her posts, from which she revealed her passion for food, wine, travel and fashion. I didn't understand half of what she had to say because most of it is in Dutch. Engaging with her via her posts, I found her to be quite an awesome person to know. 

Now, +Sabine de Witte is not theonly... more »

*Suggestions for...*

A place to go for beer and pizza or something awesome in Melbourne or surrounds.

I don't mind if it's not beer and pizza but +Peter Johnstone wants to sit on his couch for beer and pizza. I'd rather not.

Besides +Fabian Rutherford is in town and life is more exciting with him around. Fabian has suggested Izakaya Den(Japanese). Or another Asian place.

How about we turn this into an impromptu HIRL!

Daily +Google+ routine.
1. Check my circles, see what's going on with my buddies and things I actually give a crap about.
2. If I get bored, I go to "What's Hot" (what a complete misnomer) and start block-hammering the hundreds upon hundreds of people/entities posting garbage about how if I share their comment then god/jesus loves me/rules/is the best/saves us all.

The way I see it, once I've blocked them all, something intellectually interesting might eventually wash out of "What's Hot". At the moment Google should really name it "Want Religion" or better yet, "Want Not".

Wouldn't cut it with food safety in the west, but akin to SecondBite (secondbite.org) it's doing good by tapping into what otherwise would be senseless waste. Well done to the Dabbawala Foundation.

What is Google Local? And how to set up a Page! (Includes 'writing reviews')
Whether you are a business or an individual, there is something in this article for everyone.
Also, writing reviews can be fun, help your local businesses and also be a way to show you as an online influencers - other people/businesses may start to do the same for you as well.
Thanks to +Kamal Tailor +Robert Wallis and +Andrew Huskinson for their input on this one. It has been invaluable.

Hello Random Strangers from the Nearby Stream!

Would anyone like to go to see the movie Oblivion with me at either 6:30pm or 9:30pm tonight at the Century City Walk Village Cinema?

Why Glen Waverley? Because I am asking you to the movies.

Random Stranger.
You must preferably be:

Not a sociopath.
Female
Interesting.
Not smell weird, in a bad way.

I thought I'd just put it out there seeing as my actual friends are otherwise occupied. (READ: Downloading it to watch at home)
