 A Week of Eating In?!by Anna Brones on Feb 25, 2010 The Week of Eating In. It sounds so homey and cozy; seven whole days of browsing recipes, cooking up new creations and spending time with family and friends around the kitchen table. Wait one second — we need an official, designated week to do these things? Sure, this Week of Eating In, sponsored by the [...] 404 views |
 Conscious Living: Notes from the New Media Ageby Anna Brones on Feb 16, 2010 “We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.” – Jawaharial Nehru That quote was pulled from an excellent list of 50 inspirational travel quotes that is a constant point of [...] 749 views |
 Pepsi + GOOD = Positive Change via Social Media?by Anna Brones on Feb 1, 2010 Over at Under Solen we’re always excited to see big dollars behind cool causes. In fact, we all know that big corporations have the power to do big things, and Pepsi is the latest company to create an initiative that appears to be focused less on advertising and more on positive change. Teaming up with [...] 1,786 views |
 The Wild Image Project: Documenting The Beauty of the Natural Worldby Anna Brones on Jan 21, 2010 Environmentalism has a tendency to come with a dose of gloom. With an impending climate change crisis and some of our most precious natural spaces threatened on a daily basis, sometimes it’s hard to find inspiration to move forward. Enter The Wild Image Project. An exploratory adventure to document the natural world, photographer Daniel Fox [...] 1,505 views |
 My Interview with the Director of “Journey to Kathmandu.”by Anna Brones on Jan 19, 2010 Journey to Kathmandu Fleet Foxes Trailer from Chris G. Parkhurst on Vimeo. Goats, Sacrifice and Simplicity. via Anna Brones. Sometimes people come into our lives rather serendipitously. About a month ago I noticed that the apartment next to me looked a little different. A hand-painted sign that said “Journey to Kathmandu” sat outside the door [...] 387 views |
 Help Haiti: Ways You Can Help Via Organizations and Social Mediaby Anna Brones on Jan 13, 2010 Update: Unparalleled collection of photos at Boston.com. Video at bottom. Toll approaches 50,000 according to NY Times (Huff Post was throwing around 100K yesterday!). Over at Under Solen we thought it would be a good idea to compile ways that people can reach out and help Haiti earthquake victims. Even if you can’t travel to [...] 2,227 views |
 Foodies on Fixies: Pedaling NYC video series.by Anna Brones on Jan 6, 2010 Normally any videos related to hipsters make me laugh — particularly this one — but Pedaling NYC might just be one that will get a tad bit of my respect. From what I’ve understood, it’s a series that covers group of fixie-riding friends in search of good food; the tagline happens to be “A Spirited [...] 569 views |
 5 of the Cutest Animal Pics That Will Make Even Dick Cheney Shed a Tearby Anna Brones on Jan 5, 2010 Let it be known that I would never consider myself a “cute animal” person. But then you come across certain photos… and… well… you simply can’t help yourself. Looking at these pictures won’t solve climate change, and it won’t answer any questions about health care reform, but these 5 cute photos that should make your [...] 1,397 views |
 What I Did (and Learned) on My Christmas Vacation and Will Take into 2010by Anna Brones on Dec 29, 2009 The one thing they don’t teach you in school is that when you’re out of school, there’s no such thing as a Christmas vacation… at least not the two week kind. Which is exactly why I upped my nose at the real world, co-founded my own business and set out on a venture that let [...] 615 views |
 Trees and Packages Delivered by Bike, Oh My!by Anna Brones on Dec 11, 2009 If you’re getting in the holiday spirit, it might as well be a conscious and eco-friendly one. Last year UPS started bike delivery in southern Washington and part of Oregon. Of course delivering anything by bike is practically synonymous with Portland and Northwest cycle culture, so it was no surprise that the first UPS delivery [...] 183 views |
 Don’t Consume, Give! Help Build a School in Cambodia With Passports With Purposeby Anna Brones on Dec 4, 2009 Ah the holiday season… with the mere mention of it I’ve probably invoked visions of over consumption and crazed Christmas shoppers more concerned with quantity than quality. But even the jaded know that the holiday season is in fact a great time to give back, and the internet has become the new headquarters for pushing [...] 131 views |
