Sightseeing in Atlanta

We've been in Atlanta for less than 48 hours and already, we've either driven or walked past a few places that I would love to spend time in:

Georgia Aquarium
The World's Largest and Most Engaging Aquarium



MODA
Museum of Design Atlanta

Later this week, we'll be highlighting several of our customers in the Atlanta area. More cities will be featured in upcoming blog posts.

Language Lessons for Little Ones

I love San Francisco. I can't wait until my son is old enough to really enjoy visiting new places and experiencing the city. There's so much to see and do there but for families who live in, or near the city, there is a wonderful opportunity to have your children learn a foreign language at a very early age. Language at Play offers courses in Mandarin, Chinese, Spanish or French.

For those of us who live outside of this beautiful Northern California city, there's always the Lingolook Flashcards.

Oh, and in case you haven't already been to the site, I highly recommend that you visit the San Francisco Musem of Modern Art online to get a glimpse of what the museum has to offer. Their gift shop (and print catalog) are filled with amazingly beautiful products (and books) designed by fantabulous artists. I can't wait to get my hands on the next catalog when it comes in the mail.

Museums & More

I don't normally brag about interviews I've done (except perhaps to my own Mom). This time, however, for an article in the Winter 2008 issue of Museums & More, I'm included among some other experts in the industry, such as Susan Raab, Judy Brunsek, Jennifer Ellison, Julie Ritchie and Megan Beidl.

Chapter & Verse, written by Abby Heugel, compiles advice and words of experience about selling books in speciality gift shops. I'm eager to introduce Jukebox to buyers in the speciality since it is a book that won't quite fit into many other markets so easily.

My own personal jukebox (aka ipod) keeps me motivated and passes the time while I'm in on a road trip, stuck in traffic or simply on my way to the grocery store so I'm anticipating that music lovers will take pleasure in this forthcoming title from France by David Merveille.
