Why I will not be calling Facebook Home

As you know you will have the option to have a Facebook phone, Home.

It is slated as an android experience you don’t want to miss. But I think you might want to miss this one.

imagesFacebook knows enough about me as it is, they are sponsored by the FBI, so I don’t need to give them insight on my phone calls.

In my option, Do not call Facebook Home at best visit them at www.facebook.com at your discretion , but giving them access to your life 24/7 so it can be sold to the highest bidder is insane.

Face and skin secrets
Face and skin secrets

This post is not about a start up, coding, funding or disruption …..its actually about makeup!

I recently posted a picture of me attempting to do my own eye make up and was flooded with comments about my skin, so I thought I would post my response for everyone to see.

Makeup is fun, key, and a must for most girls….but not That Tech Girl!

Make up to me is simple and meant to highlight your beauty, not cover it up. I have done a 5 minute makeup routine for years! However I have realized that I should be prepared in the event I have to do my own make up for film and television so I have started studying on YouTube. I have been blown away with all of the talent sharing tips.

Film make up is completely different from day to day make up. I find many people don’t know the difference or perhaps they just don’t care. For a regular day- to- day- there- are- no- red- carpets- or- cameras- following- me look, LESS is always best! For a camera ready look you will always want to go outside of your comfort zone and PACK IT ON!

I know I know make up and Tech don’t really seem to fit but guess what…THEY go hand and hand.

Makeup is a form a technology, it is a tool used to get you from where you currently are to where you want to be. It is a tool used as real life social media. It says a lot about you whether you like it or not.

So to get to the point and answer the question proposed to me by a number of people…..

HOW DOES YOUR MAKE UP LAY SO EFFORTLESSLY AND WHY IS YOUR SKIN SO CLEAR???….

SKIN CARE IS SUN PREVENTION:

  • I wear SPF 70 or higher EVERYDAY
  • On cloudy or rainy days I drop down to SPF 30
  • I do not consume more than 30 minutes of direct sunlight per day
  • I do not sleep in make up…DO NOT DO IT
  • I do not drink alcohol
  • I do not smoke or hang around smokers…I avoid 1, 2, 3rd hand smoke whenever possible
  • I do not have direct contact with the sun longer than 5-10 min at a time.
  • I ALWAYS use an umbrella /parasol/EXTRA large brim hat if I must be out in the sun (I shop coolibar.com
  • There you go that is the secret!

I would love to here your skin care tips!

Innovation Month helps tell the story of San Francisco as the best place to live, work and play. More than any other city, San Francisco is uniquely poised to innovate and invent the future right here, right now, by capitalizing on our greatest resource – our people. And innovation isn’t just about technology – it’s about a different way of thinking and approaching our problems. It is through innovative approaches to crime fighting and community involvement that San Francisco remains one of the safest big cities in America. It is through new ways to make it easier for companies to do business in SF.

SF CoFounders Meet up in San Francisco

First Co Founders SF meet up took place Oct 11, 2012 at Soda Popinskis in San Francisco

CoFounders SF is a new meet up group started by Logan Shedd and hosted by Stefan Broda. Logan is a Massachusetts  native who owns and operates various non tech businesses in San Francisco. Logan is launching a tech start up but ran into a common problem like so many start up hopefuls… locating a talented co founder. He decided to organize a Meet Up in order to hopefully find his tech match as well as help others.

Members are invited to identify themselves as founders, cofounders, non technical, and technical. In hopes of wooing a mate, the member stand in front of an eager group of hopefuls and give their best 60 second pitch!

Meeting Agenda:

6-6:45 Mingle, drink and eat

6:45-7 Greetings from Hosts

7-7:30 Round the room introductions of idea, role and yourself! 1 minute each.

7:30-7:45 Presentation and Q/A

7:45-8 Close meeting. Talk about next, ideas, feedback, et

 

Tempted to attend but have no idea what C++ is, no worries!!! There were non technical start ups eager to expand. One that caught my attention was founded by Antonia Townsend. TheEnclosed.com is taking a new approach to underwear! Antonia’s new start up ships luxury knickers monthly! A whole new way to say “I LOVE YOU”! I doubt 1800Flowers.com will be adding this service so you better stick with TheEnclosed.com

Graham Hunter was knighted as “All things meeting”, meaning he will keep record, attendance, smile, as well as shoot out a few tweets, which is fitting seeing as he is head of a start up marketing firm . Visit Grahamhunter.org

Looking forward to seeing the relationships blossom from this meet up!

Living in the moment

“If the past or the future existed some scientist would have discovered it by now” Eckhart Tolle.

You cannot live in the past or the future, they do not exist . The only moment you have is this one.

You spent your entire adolescent being programmed to look in the future or work through the past but no one ever tells you how to actually live your REAL life. Real life as in the one you are in right now. Its amazing we literally live in the eternal now!

Is it hard being an Android in Silicon Valley?

Many look at me as if I work for NASA. In complete awe and amazement. They look down at my hand as if to say “What is that?” Where do you get that? And is that made on earth?

Being in the tech hub of the world people expect you to have Apple, and why shouldn’t they….the international Global headquarters is down the street. However I am making a bold statement and I back Samsung. Which I am not going to lie it can be very lonely,but a GREAT conversation starter!

Yes its actually made by Samsung, right here on this planet
