Lead Story
mini cooper clubman and pat
When I first strapped myself on to the driver’s seat in the MINI Cooper Clubman, I thought I was about to take off. To Timbuktu and never to return, or something. First introduced in 2008 as a new member in the MINI family, the MINI Cooper Clubman, in the words of Edmunds, “Keeps all the goodness of the original Cooper formula and throws in a liberal dash of practicality.”

The B List
top ten blogs you won’t imagine being from singapore
I have encountered feedback from skeptics who have more faith in Tiger Woods staying monogamous than they do with Singapore-based blogs producing content comparable to international blogs. There is truth in what the skeptics are saying but I reckon that the fundamental problem we have here is awareness. I’d bet you a round of beer than you won’t imagine the blogs listed below being from Singapore.
The Advertising Slut
french connection embraces chatroulette
French Connection decided to leverage on Chatroulette (surprise, surprise) and challenge its readers from its blog, Manifesto, to try to seduce a woman and possibly win a 250 quid voucher.
The Artist
anything also anyhow
Anything Also Anyhow is eeshaun’s second solo art exhibition (about time, brother), and it happens this Friday. A must visit.
The Bitch
mandatory give way by LTA
Wouldn’t it be funny if we have the Speak Good English Movement banner right next to this one by Land Transport Authority?
The Dark One
der freie wille
Sometimes, I look at her and I see myself. The poignant photograph was taken from one of my favourite movies, Der Freie Wille.
The Design Diva
drawdio
In the ideal world of Culture, art will play music and music will play art. Imagine if you could draw musical instruments on normal paper with any pencil, and then play them with your finger. Jay Silver of MIT Media Lab did just that.
The Digital Strategist
the state of the Internet
Quite possibly one of the best show in data visualization ever.
The Dirt
the dirt with xiaxue
As a digital strategist by day, I thank God for the existence of Xiaxue. Perhaps vulgar and suicidal even for me to say so, but I reckon the local social media realm will not be as it is today, if not for her existence. The local social media realm is my marketplace. Xiaxue is my marketplace benchmark. My wagyu cow if you may. Ridiculously expensive. Not necessarily appropriate. But people know of it, and that makes beef in general, desirable.
The Fashionista
nike sportswear brasil black pack limited release
The Brazilian Yellow is not just a Pantone color from a color swatch. The Brazilian Yellow is synonymous to the Beautiful Game. With that said, it is to my pleasant surprise to learn of the most radical, if not insane, thing the Nike Sportswear design team decided to do – take the concept of what the Brazilian Yellow stands for, and turn it black. Bold, daring, and oh good lord, extremely gorgeous.
The Geek
a novel way to cover your macbook
Save for the cheesy name, Bookbook is a cute little bugger perfect for the progressive Mac geek with a sense of style. Handmade for both MacBook and MacBook Pro, this one-of-a-kind hardback leather case promises to make heads turn. Available at USD79.90.
The Kollector
YOU powered by Citi
YOU powered by Citi is a one-of-a-kind carnival of interactive fun and entertainment, happening this weekend and I’d be there playing them games!
The Lesbian
what pastor rony tan thinks about homosexuals
I’ll leave you to tell me how you, both my straight and gay readers, to tell me how you feel about this video. Meanwhile, I’m curious to know what the higher authority thinks. We know its not ok to make insensitive comments about Buddhism… how about homosexuals?
The Lonely Travellor
the journey back in time
I wrote previously on how the complimentary walk provided by The Majestic Malacca is to die for. At risk of being a historical spoiler, allow me to share my experience with you the journey back in time in the rich history of this extraordinary empire.
The Narcissist
why did you do it?
Needless to say, resigning from Ogilvy was the toughest decision I’ve ever had to make. So why did I do it?
The Oddball
how to report news
Not quite the way they teach in film school, I don’t think, but what a brilliant way to do so, eh?
The Photographer
grand piano
I turn to her each time I need to indulge in a little dose of darkness. She’s an old friend I’ve never met, from Helsinki.
The Rest
perch on the ceriph birdhouse
For he who adores McSweeney’s, the time has come to celebrate a serious new contender – Ceriph.
The Social Whore
i think i’m turning japanese
The theme was I think I’m turning Japanese (after that one-hit wonder from the 80s for you little ones who don’t know), and I’d have you know my committee members worked really hard to make this happen. I went as a soiled underwear vending machine. I’m stoked the vending machine sold out on its thongs. And to think my customers were all females. Imagine that.
