So, to start this off, Dan created a blog for himself, rafer and erik while on their trip in central america.

Second, i had a post about a cool expedition vehicle link i found, well, Veronica belmont with mahalo daily did a short video segment of the unicat expedition vehicle, which is a fun short segment with more info about it.
Lastly, the consumerist had a great article about the markups that radio shack charges on their monster cables. i blogged about this before, when i was looking to buy some at futureshop, and was outraged at how much they charge, when i was able to find them for a fraction of the price at monoprice.com
