    How great. Can't wait for "Music for tech-savvy young adults with interest in retro games" or "Music for Asian women aged 35-45". Before these industry-disrupting services emerge t…

    "Why Tokyo Is the World’s Best Food City"? Because the author uses the word "fucking" at least once per paragraph. That is why. So off I go to Tokyo, visibly impressed.

    I'd just gone through the process of moving some ~40 accounts on various websites from having a Yahoo email address to a Gmail one. By far the most unpleasant experience was with P…
