Dropbox

This is sorta my plug for Dropbox, which is a service I love. If you sign up using this link I'll get some extra space!

location aware applications

So Facebook Places is online now through the touch.facebook.com site. Pretty cool. Ubsurd as it is, Foursquare has no integration with it, but Scvngr and Gowalla do. Signed up for all three...one of them should gain some kind of edge in the location-aware arena.

Thoughts?

Skyline Coney Island review

I saw an ad for Skyline Coney Island in the City Pulse so I thought I'd head over there and check it out.

The place has promise - it was very clean (including restrooms), the service was very attentive, and it seemed to be a family-operated business. The atmosphere was great - lots of windows on a busy street, so it was bright and kinda nice to watch the traffic stream by outside.

I had breakfast, so I didn't get a chance to sample a coney. I ordered eggs, pancakes, hashbrowns and sausage (I was hungry), and everything was very good and pleasantly non-greasy. I like how they offer both sausage links and patties. The coffee was strong and very good - not that watered down junk you tend to get at some similar joints.

The prices were very reasonable, if not downright cheap.

My only complaints were minor - one of my over-easy egg yolks was broken (no big deal in my book), and the pancakes were a little too fluffy for my taste (which is obviously a personal-preference thing). It'd be nice if they added pancakes as an a la carte option.

I'll definitely go back, and based on first impressions, I'll probably add this place to my list of favorite breakfast joints in Lansing.
