Yowsers! I did 18km on the bike today with @sillygwailo. Definitely our bikingest valentine's day.
Any students want half-off a student membership to the Vancouver Art Gallery? I got a dealio... :)
RT @MaryBethIkard: "I'd follow you anywhere, as long as it's within 1/4mi of public #transit" http://www.facebook.com/mbikard... Happy Valentine's Day from @MassTransitMag
RT @lukec: OH: "I don't think I've ever said this, but I'm pretty sure I'm with the pedophiles on this one."
Still angry at the guy who thought, b/c his parents came to Canada from the Ukraine 4 gens ago, that he could talk to me about God.
That is officially the longest white hair I've ever seen on my head. #hurrahimfinallygettingolder
So. Much. Head-desking. RT @MarcLeeCCPA: Enter Vic Toews: "You are with us or with child pornographers". Seriously: http://www.cbc.ca/news...
RT @gordonr: The City is not a Site Map - my #WIAD 2012 Vancouver presentation in its entirety - slides & text http://www.openroad.ca/2012... @WIAD_Vancouver #IA
RT @AlexSteffen: To be cynical is to be obedient. To limit your options to those offered you is to serve those defining the offerings.
#citytalk A7 Family-friendly events are important too. Example: lots of parents w/strollers out for this past wknd's #illuminateyaletown.
That said, gotta acknowledge that there is dissenting opinion re: family-friendliness of #yvr downtown. http://thetyee.ca/Opinion... #citytalk
#citytalk A6) In #yvr, systems producing poverty have not stopped even as some are fortunate, get housed; midd class need policy attn now
(As an aside to housing discussion, I'm intrigued by concept of condo as "vertical gated communities." Some work to be done there IMHO.)
#citytalks A) Both "home" & "ownership" will be redefined. Homes smaller, "owning" allowing for co-ops, Air BnB-models for income.
Want to see if any #plannerstweet as part of #citytalks too! Many are at the forefront of the struggles, after all.
Checking in with #CityTalk to see if any #VanRE folks are weighing in on worldwide housing concerns.
Auuugh so excited! :):) RT @ThisisOurStop: Stickers! http://twitter.com/ThisisO...
RT @bgilliard: Meanwhile, in the US: 'Even Critics of Safety Net Increasingly Depend on It' http://www.nytimes.com/2012...
RT @gordonr: Is holistic, cross channel design the same as service design? Depends on your audience when you use the term. @samanthastarmer #WIAD
Twitter wall by @m20 at #illuminateyaletown - pretty good use of a shrink wrapped facade under construction.
Left #wiad_vancouver drinks to take in illuminate yaletown.
As a communication geek, the word "mediums" irks me the way no misplaced comma ever could (almost English minor).
Enjoying the insights of our Seattle visitors at #WIAD_vancouver. Hearing now from @samanthastarmer (cross-channel holistic deslign).
Improving the user experience of user experience. Reminds me of existential issues in planning! #WIAD_vancouver
Surprised to not see @tputkey at #wiad, she introduced me to the whole thing!
.@karapecknold telling a great story about culture and the centrality of context for design interventions. #WIAD_vancouver
.@gordonr quotes Lewis Mumford's definition of the city in helping understand city. My fave? "theatre of social action" #WIAD_vancouver
Org chart as ”city website antipattern." says @gordonr. Frankly, ppl have better things to do. #WIAD_vancouver
Damn me and my recent over-reading of communicative planning theory making me want to theory wank during q&a. #WIAD_vancouver
.@jessmcmullin talks about continuum of policy-making, decision-making to implementation. (so much yes)
