To understand nerds, you simply need a handbook like <A HREF='http://www.randsinrepose.com/archives/2007/11/11/the_nerd_handbook.html' TARGET=''>this</A>. Still relevant and possibly very helpful wether to decide you are a nerd yourself or, if not, some of your friends are. Nerds are fucking funny. I kid you not. So do not let them fool you. Understand your nerd's relation to the computer. It's clich&#233;, but a nerd is defined by his computer, and you need to understand why. So, read <A HREF='http://www.randsinrepose.com/archives/2007/11/11/the_nerd_handbook.html' TARGET=''>The Nerd Handbook</A>. </P>]]></description>

Eric invested a lot in the introduction of a brand for ros&#233; from Provence.

The pro&#180;s liked it too; <A HREF='http://www.aixrose.nl/' TARGET=''>AIX ros&#233; 2009</A> won gold at <A HREF='http://www.cga-paris.com/' TARGET=''>Concours G&#233;n&#233;rale de Paris 2010</A>!

Plus, <A HREF='http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0680983/' TARGET=''>Ellen Page</A> is legit! It&#180;s also in line with <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/video/535' TARGET=''>Youth In Revolt</A>, so you might switch rooms if you&#180;re in an all american sweat heart mode.

Star of this comedy is <A HREF='http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0148418/' TARGET=''>Michael Cera</A>. I liked his role in Superbad and even Juno. This film isn&#180;t any different besides the fact there&#180;s way more humor innit with Michael as lead character. I&#180;m also very curious about <A HREF='http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0302108/' TARGET=''>Zach Galifianakis</A> as his step father. Cassic guy!

So, 2 days before the match, I arranged all gear thanks to Nike Football, and created a team. Despite the fact we lost (which sucks big time!) it was an unique experience. Friendship wins.

	        <link>http://www.nalden.net/#/newsitem/1843</link>
	        <description><![CDATA[<P ALIGN='LEFT'>Last Friday I <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/photos/nalden/4732842500/' TARGET=''>spent the day</A> with a brand new <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/photos/2565' TARGET=''>Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG</A>. Yes, the new Gullwing inspired on its illustrious, legendary <A HREF='http://www.motorera.com/dictionary/pics/g/gullwing.jpg' TARGET=''>predecessor</A>. I&#180;m not going to bore you with specs which you can google. I&#180;m just telling you what&#180;s up. I felt like a sinner with this super car, afraid taking the highway because this thing goes beyond fast without even noticing. The car itself doesn&#180;t go unnoticed. Literally everybody is attracted to have a proper look. Even when flying on the highway, people are taking pictures while driving next to you. </P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>This all started with one hilarious <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/contact/' TARGET=''>email</A> by <A HREF='http://www.mercedes-benz.nl/content/netherlands/mpc/mpc_netherlands_website/nl/home_mpc/passengercars/home/new_cars/models/sls_amg/c197.flash.html' TARGET=''>Mercedes</A> if I was interested to &#180;borrow&#180; the car for a day. Halle-fucking-lu-yeah! I played cool, replying and set the date on last Friday. I picked up the beauty with my charming intern <A HREF='http://www.yojimoniz.com/' TARGET=''>Yoji Moniz</A>, who shot some footage on <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/photos/nalden/4732453613/in/photostream/' TARGET=''>video</A>. She also captured <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/photos/2565' TARGET=''>some images</A> of us fooling around which I decided to share via this <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/photos/2565' TARGET=''>online gallery</A>. I reckon this is risky material, but it sure looks good. Before going all electric with the handsome <A HREF='http://www.teslamotors.com' TARGET=''>Tesla</A>, this &#180;Gullwing&#180; experience was really amazing like a bachelor party.</P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>Not only I felt like a kid driving with the wings open, I also never drove 280 before. Living in my own world like I was part of the <A HREF='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0BzBFWt8V8' TARGET=''>M.A.S.K.</A> crusaders and fought the evil Spectrum. Damn I can&#180;t wait to watch <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/photos/nalden/4615058401/' TARGET=''>that series</A> again. Anyway, beautiful ladies were eyeballing me. Traffic jams seems to take seconds instead of ages. Valerio couldn&#180;t stop smiling. Yoji felt asleep while driving. Even granny thought it was a beauty, and if even your grandma likes it, there&#180;s not much left to share. I got that remark on camera btw an will post this after the edit. </P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>Om er een eind aan te breien. If you have a shitload of money to spent and wants to have a lot of sex, this is the car for you! The new Gullwing brings back sexappeal not only to you, but also to Mercedes. Although I love the &#180;old Gullwing&#180; even more, this collabo between Mercedes-Benz and AMG on the SLS is a worthy successor of its predecessor. A contemporary classic, <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/photos/2565' TARGET=''>creating a new heritage amongst digital natives</A>. </P>]]></description>

Niels portrays the disappearing class of authentic local merchants. The photos show the shopkeepers in the interiors of their shops, some of which are still in use, others of which have closed under pressure of the large chain stores. A very intriguing, different, last look before they fade into history. [<A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/photos/2539' TARGET=''>View Gallery</A>]</P>]]></description>

The &#180;not so average&#180; early morning drive that starts in a tunnel of the Paris  P&#233;riph&#233;rique at Porte Dauphine with an onboard view from an unseen car exiting up on a ramp to Avenue Foch, passing some landmarks you might recognize.

	        <description><![CDATA[<P ALIGN='LEFT'>This afternoon me and <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/newsitem/1827' TARGET=''>my new friends</A> enjoyed listening to Nothing. A very enthusiastic <A HREF='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharrell_Williams' TARGET=''>Pharrell Williams</A> shared at least 7 new songs of the upcoming <A HREF='http://n-e-r-d.com/' TARGET=''>N.E.R.D</A>. record. P talked about his Western influences, Victory and the iPad as beautiful thing for our species. Nothing got the uptempo club bangers you&#180;d expect, but the slower jams were the ones that caught my attention. Perfect Defect is such a track I want to hear again &#38; again. After listening we <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/snapshots/' TARGET=''>took some photos</A> and that was it. Nothing special. </P>]]></description>

	        <description><![CDATA[<P ALIGN='LEFT'>Last week the team behind <A HREF='http://www.littlewhitelies.co.uk/' TARGET=''>Little White Lies</A> announced <A HREF='http://www.littlewhitelies.co.uk/blog/invert-look-the-new-state-of-play/' TARGET=''>Invert Look</A>, a new magazine devoted to exploring the ever-expanding world of videogames. Because I&#180;m a strong believer in <A HREF='http://www.thechurchoflondon.com/' TARGET=''>The Church of London</A>, I&#180;m confident Invert Look will have their solid content packed in good design. My friend <A HREF='http://www.littledidiknow.net/' TARGET=''>Jelle</A>, who introduced me to LWL and sucks at Killzone 2, also suggested to mention the book <A HREF='http://abc.nl/search/detailed.php?isbn=9780307378705&valuta=$' TARGET=''>Extra Lives; Why Video Games Matter</A> of <A HREF='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Bissell' TARGET=''>Tom Bissell</A>. After reading <A HREF='http://www.salon.com/books/feature/2010/06/20/tom_bissell_extra_lives_interview_ext2010' TARGET=''>this interview</A> you understand why. </P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>What I like most is the fact Invert Look will not focus on reviews, previews and fanboy rants. Instead, they will be focusing on informative, entertaining and grown-up features that get to grips with the new ways in which videogames are exerting an influence over all areas of our pop-culture world. After playing games like <A HREF='http://www.heavyrainps3.com/' TARGET=''>Heavy Rain</A>, <A HREF='http://www.killzone.com/' TARGET=''>Killzone 2</A> and more recently <A HREF='http://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption/' TARGET=''>Red Dead Redemption</A> I noticed the storytelling of gaming is grown-up and thanks to the graphics and interactivity, gaming is now the most consumed medium ever! </P>]]></description>

	        <description><![CDATA[<P ALIGN='LEFT'>A few weeks ago my friend and top notch photographer <A HREF='http://www.robinutrecht.com/' TARGET=''>Robin Utrecht</A> visited the <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/photos/2392' TARGET=''>World Expo in Shanghai</A>. With its 150-year history the Expo is regarded as the Olympic Games of the economy, science and technology and aims to promote the exchange of ideas and development of the world economy. Obviously Robin was there with his camera and shot some stunning photos, some of them shot in tilt-shift. Besides the expo only he captured <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/photos/2392' TARGET=''>some amazing images</A> of the rising Chinese city.

	        <title><![CDATA[Tesla Motors Factory Visit]]></title>
	        <link>http://www.nalden.net/#/newsitem/1797</link>
	        <description><![CDATA[<P ALIGN='LEFT'>Today me and Bas went to visit the factory of <A HREF='http://www.teslamotors.com' TARGET=''>Tesla Motors</A> in Palo Alto. Since my <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/photos/nalden/4624599434/' TARGET=''>last experience</A> driving a Tesla Roadster last week, I became sort of addicted. It&#180;s like crack, but the eco-friendly type. Heavy accelerating isn&#180;t a waste of gas anymore, but goes unnoticed. <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/photos/nalden/4645726962/' TARGET=''>Driving Tesla is like flying a spaceship</A> (although I never flew a spaceship, yet). Anyway, after a few mails and calls we were expected this morning at the factory to see what&#180;s really happening down there. >></P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>I must add we needed to rent a car since it&#180;s a 45-minute drive from downtown SF to Palo Alto. Destiny decided we got an <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/photos/nalden/4644747483/' TARGET=''>orange Chevy Camaro</A>. Things could have been worse. With bumblebee we went to see Tesla. At the factory we met Ernie who <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/photos/nalden/4645716028/in/photostream/' TARGET=''>showed us around</A>. Ernie is a funny guy with a lot of humor who told us all about the history of Tesla. Which is like a 4 minute story since they started in 2004. Ernie showed us the batteries, the process of how the cars were crafted by hand and introduced us too Rob.</P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>Rob is the kind of guy you wouldn&#180;t notice in a bar, but got super powers at the same time. He&#180;s responsible for checking the cars before they will be delivered to the clients. <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/photos/nalden/4645704188/in/photostream/' TARGET=''>Have a look at Rob&#180;s test driving skills hahaha</A>. I couldn&#180;t notice the Roadster resembles with my own Lotus Elise. Maybe that was the whole reason I felt very attracted to Tesla. Ernie explained Tesla is like 6% Lotus. The chassis, some buttons and the roof are the same, all made in the Lotus factory. The speed isn&#180;t! This car kicks ass. Tesla eats Ferrari&#180;s for breakfast! </P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>Apart from the whole electric driving eco-thing, Tesla is bringing high performance with sexy looks and I was dying to hit the uhh electric power &#180;gas&#180; myself. <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/photos/nalden/4645726962/in/photostream/' TARGET=''>So I did</A>. You can easily drive 90 mph in 4 seconds without a doubt. <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/photos/nalden/4645726962/in/photostream/' TARGET=''>It&#180;s insane</A>! Sure, this type of driving will result in blinking low battery lights, but we neglected that fact when we went to light-speed in the <A HREF='http://www.teslamotors.com/design/gallery-body.php' TARGET=''>Tesla Roadster Sport</A>. Full battery means; being able to drive 300 km and charging will take 4 hrs. Low battery means; search for power in a range of 25 meters. All I can say is I can&#180;t wait to explore more of this back home!</P>]]></description>

	        <link>http://www.nalden.net/#/newsitem/1796</link>
	        <description><![CDATA[<P ALIGN='LEFT'>Today I stumbled upon this little boutique store <A HREF='http://www.invisiblestripes.com/' TARGET=''>INVS</A> (Invisible Stripes), right around the corner on Post street. The very appealing <A HREF='http://store.invisiblestripes.com/invsvarsityjacketseries01black-1.aspx' TARGET=''>black / gold varsity jacket</A>, hanging in the window, triggered my attention. Inside INVS it was small &#38; cosy, just the way I like it. The varsity jacket was produced by this little brand from San Francisco called <A HREF='http://www.mrsfc.com/' TARGET=''>MISTER</A>, abbreviated as Mr. and I became an <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/favorites/' TARGET=''>instant fan</A>. Such a shame the smaller sizes were sold out. Thankfully Mr. is the multitasking kind of guy and offers different garments. </P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>Mister is not about disposable fashion, but likes to update the classic, basic items, like the very soft <A HREF='http://store.invisiblestripes.com/invisiblestripesglobalawarenesscrew-1-1-1-1-1-1-1.aspx' TARGET=''>Henly shirts</A>, with subtle details and fabrics. For each piece sold Mr. will donate a percentage of the sales to a local charity in the Tender-Nob area, which got serious impoverish conditions haha. I suggest to <A HREF='http://store.invisiblestripes.com' TARGET=''>visit the store</A> and get familiar with <A HREF='http://store.invisiblestripes.com/mister.aspx' TARGET=''>MISTER</A>. Shit is legit quality and lasting style at a fair price. I don&#180;t want to say affordable because that is relevant to how much you make. </P>]]></description>

	        <link>http://www.nalden.net/#/newsitem/1789</link>
	        <description><![CDATA[<P ALIGN='LEFT'>Back in San Francisco for some business! Let me explain what I&#180;m doing here: as you may know I&#180;m one of the 3 founders of <A HREF='https://www.wetransfer.com/' TARGET=''>WeTransfer</A>, an online file transfer service. We basically strive to make transferring files as easy and pleasant as possible for anyone. Sure, tech savvy heads will get more satisfaction by awesome services like <A HREF='https://www.dropbox.com/' TARGET=''>Dropbox</A>, but like I always say; <A HREF='https://www.wetransfer.com/' TARGET=''>WeTransfer</A> is for everyone AND their parents. My job in particular as CMO (Chief Marketing Officer) is to make <A HREF='https://www.wetransfer.com/' TARGET=''>WeTransfer</A> globally known as the number 1 file transfer service. Quite challenging huh!? </P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>One of the things which I think (so does the company) will help achieving this goal is creating personalized channels via sub domains. Personalization is everywhere so that&#180;s a no brainer. I&#180;m reaching out to <A HREF='http://parra.wetransfer.com' TARGET=''>people</A>, <A HREF='http://sidlee.wetransfer.com/' TARGET=''>companies</A> and <A HREF='https://blyk.wetransfer.com/' TARGET=''>brands</A> to create such a channel which will get people to use WeTransfer and spread the word. Still, 1 on 3 users of <A HREF='https://www.wetransfer.com/' TARGET=''>WeTransfer</A> is generating a new user. I&#180;m confident adding personalized channels will help reaching critical mass even sooner. What do you think? Would you like to have your own Wallpaper Background for uploading/downloading files for your clients or friends? </P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>I&#180;m looking forward to some <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/comments/1789/' TARGET=''>proper feedback</A>. Best ones will &#180;<U>win</U>&#180; their own personalized channel, &#180;cause besides transferring your files, we like to put a smile on your face too. How do we keep our servers running and pay the bills? Well, currently we offer the same type of <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/sponsorship/' TARGET=''>Wallpaper Advertising</A> as I&#180;m doing on <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/about/' TARGET=''>Nalden.net</A>. And yes, we&#180;re open for business so have a look on <A HREF='http://www.wetransfer.info/' TARGET=''>wetransfer.info</A> for more information about advertising on <A HREF='https://www.wetransfer.com/' TARGET=''>wetransfer.com</A> or <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/contact/' TARGET=''>contact me</A>. Easy!</P>]]></description>

I failed to get the <A HREF='http://www.oneill.com/game/highscores.aspx' TARGET=''>high score</A>, and miss out on a trip to Hawaii, by some dude from Hungary. I appreciate O&#180;Neill went augmented, I also believe they can do better. Adding value, like <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/video/345' TARGET=''>Lego does</A>. This way, O&#180;Neill will also facilitate in the new needs of the online generation and get back ahead of its game! You see; I like O&#180;Neil. They innovate the crap out of <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/photos/2140' TARGET=''>the wetsuit</A> and support the surf community. As you may know, I like to surf whether it&#180;s on- or offline and O&#180;Neill is a brand I recognize as one of the <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/photos/2140' TARGET=''>true originators</A>. So, maybe we can help them!? Let&#180;s see the web as one big ocean where everybody has got the chance to catch good waves. We bloggers might not be as good looking as Kelly Slater, but we sure know how to surf!</P>]]></description>

It&#180;s currently part of the <A HREF='http://www.mediamatic.net/search/136748' TARGET=''>Sur Place exhibition</A> which explains the feature. So, dear Mediamatic people, could you please send me the hi-res files of the pictures you took? It&#180;s golden! And don&#180;t get me started on the fixed vs single speed discussion. I value my life and although I appreciate fixed bikes and especially bike polo, I&#180;m single speed for life hahaha. I&#180;m a nerd which explains the Aaron Ross keyboard grips. </P>]]></description>

	        <link>http://www.nalden.net/#/newsitem/1777</link>
	        <description><![CDATA[<P ALIGN='LEFT'>Denim is here to stay. Although it&#180;s experiencing heavy hype, what happened to sneakers and customized t-shirts, it&#180;s definitely less accessible. Thank god. One of the brands that caught me&#180;eye is <A HREF='http://www.flickr.com/groups/edwindenim/' TARGET=''>Edwin</A>. Born in 1947 in Japan. Edwin is an anagram for 'denim' flipping the M upside down to make a W, and were the first to drop the worn look and the stonewash in the 80s, revolutionizing denim wear. So far the history lesson. I recently <A HREF='http://www.290sqm.com' TARGET=''>acquired</A> the <A HREF='http://www.fusshop.co.uk/edwin_jeans_ed-47_rainbow_selvage.html' TARGET=''>Edwin ED47 with Rainbow Selvage</A> and became so excited I have got to share this enthusiasm.</P><P ALIGN='LEFT'>Wearing this jeans it&#180;s like hearing; &#34;Ain't nobody dope as me, I'm dressed so fresh so clean&#34; all the time. I like this regular fit jeans from Edwin&#180;s famous raw Indigo, red salvage Japanese denim. This stiffness makes your jeans transform. All stuff you carry leave outlines after a period of time which shows I&#180;m carrying my iPhone in my left pocket. The contrast on the details is tight, the Edwin logo tag coming out of the stitching on the back pocket is fresh. The colour is dope. The cut is clean. Add the exclusive <A HREF='http://www.nalden.net/#/snapshots/' TARGET=''>Rainbow selvage</A> and you have another must have denim. For happy customers only haha.</P>]]></description>

No more excuses &#180;cause here is <A HREF='http://store.steampowered.com/' TARGET=''>Steam</A>; the World&#180;s largest gaming platform, better said the iTunes store for games.

Once downloaded Steam you can easily purchase games, like <A HREF='http://store.steampowered.com/freeportal/' TARGET=''>Portal</A> (which is free until May 24th) or <A HREF='http://store.steampowered.com/app/34000/' TARGET=''>Football Manager 2010</A> and play cross platform! Or battle PC gamers on your Mac with <A HREF='http://store.steampowered.com/app/10195/' TARGET=''>Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2</A> hahaha!</P>]]></description>
