Pretty neat idea! It makes a lot of sense, but I'm not as sold on their technology yet. Some of their additions stand out as obvious alterations of the original photo and it's quite distracting. As long as they're just adding virtual furniture and window dressing, I'm fine with virtual staging...

Not the same article as referred to by the OP, but I saw this on my google news feed a little while ago. <a href="http://uk.reuters.com/article/marketsNewsUS/idUKNYS00499920090416">http://uk.reuters.com/article/marketsNewsUS/idUKNYS00499920090416</a>

Well, from what I've been hearing, it's raw milk that's really been at the forefront these days. Haven't tried it myself, so I can't say one way or the other, but it seems like there are a lot of organic folks who swear by it. <a...

There seem to be a lot of good recommendations here. Any recommendations for primary care physicians? I'm looking to find a new one.

Well, based on anecdotal evidence and what I've seen on the web, the batteries last well beyond the 100k mile mark. There's a nice article here about the process one goes through when the Prius battery does need to be replaced. <a...

fyi, here's an article with more details on the field trip: <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/10/11/MNFG13F1VG.DTL">http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/10/11/MNFG13F1VG.DTL</a>

I dropped by again today and they have an updated price sheet out. It looks like the models are up for grabs this time too. Price Sheet for Phase 4 + furnished models (effective April 26, 2008) <strong>Phase 4</strong> Lot / Plan / Price 87 2A 562k 86 3C 582k...

Yeah, I'm trying to give the new forums a pass until I get more used to it, but I prefer the old one as well. It looked cleaner and I liked the way all the forums with new posts were identified by color and following the link would take you to the first new post you haven't read yet. The...

<p>hmm... interesting food for thought. makes me wonder just how much house i really need...</p> <p> <a href="http://www.storyofstuff.com">http://www.storyofstuff.com</a> </p>

PUD - planned unit development. There's more detail on it in this thread:http://forums.irvinehousingblog.com/discussion/775/

Speaking of rentals, does anyone have a good recommendation for a site that has house rentals in the Irvine area? I'm hoping there's something as good as Redfin, but targeted at house rentals.

A bit off-topic, but I finally had a chance to play around with Joost tonight. It's been hyped as a youtube killer, so I was ready to be disappointed. :) Turns out that it's surprisingly well executed and brilliantly conceived. A bit rough around the edges -- I found the interface shiny but a...

I think these are actually 6" ceiling speakers, but perhaps you can consider them anyway. I've heard great things (no pun intended) about Aperion speakers, though I've never had the pleasure of owning any. <a...

Oggi's has got some good pizza. They're not quite in Irvine, but the location in Tustin is pretty close by. Be sure to check out the Italian Stallion. And bring your appetite, cuz their pies are very filling. http://www.oggis.com/

The newest Blackberry pretty much comes in two flavors, one aimed at corporate use (san camera) and the other at consumers. The 8100 aka Pearl is the consumer version and does have a camera. The 88x0 is pretty much the same device, minus the camera but with a larger screen and keypad (using one...

I dropped by today and picked up a pricesheet. It's got an effective date of 7/20/07, which is pretty odd since it means they haven't updated the price for a while now. It still shows Plans 1 and 2 as sold but, but the prices for the other two plans are higher now. Any ideas why that might be...

If you're looking for a really good remote to control everything, I'd recommend the Logitech Harmony 880. They even have them at Costco: http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11192568&whse=BC&topnav=&browse=&lang=en-US&s=1 Entourage is absolutely addicting! Almost as much as...
