Hi. I'm Paul Nixon, a designer living in Mountain View California. My days (and some nights) are spent designing websites for a little company in Cupertino. The rest of my time is spent with my beautiful wife and friends, road cycing and reading your blogs.
Smaller

Smaller cell phones. Smaller computers. Smaller Transportation? We are a two car family here at nixlog. And lately we've had a hankerin' for dumping one of our cars (O.K. it's an SUV) for something not only more economical, but simpler, smaller...dare I even say "cuter"? Uh, no. But...there are a couple of transportation themes that I am have been interested in lately:
Scooters. Perhaps we've seen too many episodes of Scrubs lately (the Scooter Gang) -- but I just think it would be hilarious to be cruising down the road with Rebecca on matching scooters. Plus it would double as a simple commuter vehicle on the back streets to work. All for a rather economical price.
- This one looks racey: Aprilia SR 50 Ditec
- And for those who want the H2 of scooters: Honda Big Ruckus.
- BARBUS Smart Roadster (looks fun - but not for the yanks stateside)
- Smart TwoFour (not available in U.S. either)
- Mini (still too expensive)
Oh well. Decisions. Decisions.
