Carbonated water, yogurt, salt and dried mint, also known as Yogurtsoda. And I’d try it. It’s also the name of Mariam’s “new” blog, which focuses on the love for food and travel (sorta like what’s evoked by a name like buildings and food but with the execution). And I highly recommend it.

side note: Aside from Yogurt soda (which I have yet to try) Mariam is solely responsible for turning me onto No Reservations.

side side note: I actually do like Alesh’s blogging.

Malcolm Gladwell discusses Outliers

I picked up Gladwell’s latest book, Outliers, and so far so good. I think this one may have more applied relevance than his previous two, and I’m only halfway done. What I love about him is that he’s so incredibly adept at organizing and communicating these seemingly tangential ocurrences and ideas and produce the most interesting theories, which I’d say range from just plain clever to tremendously insightful.

Here he is discussing Outliers with Charlie Rose (he’s on the first 30 mins so disregard the Geoff Colvin image and press play):

starring Brad Pitt as Lion-O

wow. amazing.
