Queen West...

See http://torontoist.com/2008/02/phototo_queen_s.php for more images

Queen west is one of my favourite parts of town - I used to live around the corner, and have friends that own businesses in this part of town.  more importantly though, I know two households that were affected by yesterday's fire.  I'd encourage anyone reading to think about any stuff they have lying around that would help out those who now have nothing.  I have yet to find anyone making an organized central donation area, but friends of those affected are arranging individual fundraisers - here's a couple links from Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=8326598679  & http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=21759217928

UPDATE: There is now a centralized support fund at Scotiabank branches more info here - http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_19841.aspx

If you didn't make the trip to SF in January...

Sure you watched the Steve-note, but how about all the other sessions that go on during Macworld?  Usually you have to drop down over $1000 to attend the conference sessions, but this year, thanks to IDG and SOMA all the Macworld sessions (i.e the Users conference, and the IT conference) are available for free to view online here - http://www.macworldencore.com

I'm a fairly frequent visitor of this restaurant (moreso when we actually lived in the area) but they do a decent bit of texmex at a decent price - but OMG, what is that website all about....
