As you might have noticed, I’m trying to get as many people to view my new photoblog as possible. Over the weekend, there were quite a bit of changes so I’ll just go over them quickly as bullet points.

  1. Official name change: My photoblog is now called You’re My Favourite and is located at the convenient URL of youremyfavourite.com.
  2. Facebook and Twitter comments: You can now comment on photos at You’re My Favourite using your Twitter or Facebook account.
  3. RSS feed location: If you subscribed to You’re My Favourite via RSS before Saturday, you’ll have to update the feed location as its URL has changed (to this). But it’s a simple process and I’d be delighted to have you follow me once again.

There you go! That’s all. I’ve been posting a steady stream of fairly large pictures so head on over and check it out. If you like, subscribe and keep up with my favorites!

Coffee tastes better from your favorite mug

I love coffee and this is a photo of my favorite coffee mug.

According to new research done by Dr. Tom Stafford, a psychologist from Sheffield University, the intake of coffee is very much similar to the intake of any sort of drug of reward. Over time, the user develops a ritual or method of having the coffee that provides the best result, and using one’s favorite cup or mug is one of the ways that a user enjoys a brew to the fullest.
