Mucho Mas, the Best Burritos in the World?

I have’t been there myself yet, so I don’t know if that statement is true. But I think it is, since I invested in the company ;)

And Mike at Techcrunch seems to agree.

Mucho Mas was founded by Dan Houghton and Eric Partakers, good friends from Skype. These guys are among the smartest people I know. Hopefully that translates into tasty Mexican cooking.

I’m going there tomorrow evening, to see if they live up to the hype.

Outdated Censorship

It seems like in the world of investment banking, MySpace is still ahead of Facebook. My friends over in the city can without a problem spend hours on Facebook, throwing cakes and poking each other. But MySpace is a big no-no. This is the message they get:

“Under the current BankName Information Technology Risk standards,
http://www.myspace.com/ is considered to be in one of the following
categories: Dating/Social .

BankName does not allow access by default to “Dating/Social” websites
on the Internet.”

Come on, bankers! Noone cares about MySpace anymore anyway.

Glissers Making Friends

Glissers has had a good week.

First, globalsurfari.com and Gary Brewer added glissers accommodations to their global surf forecasting tool. You’ll see a list of surf accommodations close to the surf spot you selected, “powered by glissers.com”. Nice :)

Secondly, the guys at Nordsurf wrote about a nice piece about glissers, and asked their community to help out with the directory. Nordsurf is something as interesting as a Swedish producer of surf equipment, and their boards are supposed to be top quality.

More about Nordsurf and globalsurfari.com on glissers blog.
