If you have an original idea / business model / startup to kick off on the web, but feel short in cash or resources, then the perfect way for you to nail down a potential partner are OpenCoffee format meetups, which are now going to take place in Riga too.
That goes to investors as well […]

Yesterday, I have discovered a perfect way to watch live NBA games while in Riga. I mean, not even discovered but really tried it out for the first time. There are Conference Finals underway in the World’s premier basketball league, the Finals are ahead and that means, it’s time to watch some beautiful basketball.

There are lots of us who drive to Pardaugava from downtown Riga and back to the downtown over Daugava river every day. Some are sitting through traffic jams during the morning and evening rush hours, others - manage to get over in more free from traffic time. A common issue for all car drivers, as […]

Today, while shopping at SKY, I thought that I’m not gonna take those plastic bags. Don’t know, how did I come up with the idea, looks like it just becomes stylish.

Kā divas krievu tīnes izrēķinās savā starpā, pareizāk - viena izrēķinās ar otru, ir redzēts vismaz pirms gada (pietiek ievadīt vārdu “драка” youtubā un atradīsies daudz kas pa šo tēmu). Nav runa, kadri, protams, drausmīgi, […]

On the note of TNS releasing the news of the tremendous growth online media advertising market saw through 2007, I would like to praise and applause for this thing we’re so used to: the Web. C’mon y’all, stand up! That’s what I’m talking bout.
Ad market is surely reflecting what the masses chew on - an […]

It’s known around that NO alcoholic beverages of any kind can be purchased in Latvia after 10 PM. Yeah, so what.
If you plan a house party or any kind of event that needs some alcohol shopping, you’ll be at the liquor store way before the party’s about to start. Let me guess usually it’s no […]
