This is a very interesting article. The app business is definitely a business. Great article!
How to price your apps, sell them, and earn a living
Former developer tools evangelist at Apple, Michael Jurewitz has been going flat out on the writing circuit this past week, topped off by a an insane final lap consisting of a 5-part series on understanding App Store pricing.
Pricing your app is probably one of the most difficult things you will ever do. It often feels like a shot in the dark at best and a wild-guessing game at worst. It's important to remember that there are a few things you can do ahead of time, and some very interesting things you can do later, to understand how successfully you may have priced your application.
Here's the breakdown, and the links to each part:
Part 1 looks at the phenomena of falling prices, or "racing to the bottom", and graphs the differences between top and median selling and grossing apps.
Part2 looks at the difference between top selling and top grossing apps, and which types of apps actually make money.
Part 3 looks at elasticities, demand curves, revenue maximizations, and the realizations that App Store business really is a business.
Part 4 looks at how all of the above should be factored into determining what price can be charged for any given app.
Part 5 is where Jury puts his own apps where his mouth is, showing how all this thinking was applied to Black Pixel's Kaleidoscope 2, and what the results have been to date.
Read 'em all, and thanks to Jury for sharing his insights, and driving all this across the line. Very nearly at Mach 1.

How to price your apps, sell them, and earn a living
I think many people could benefit from reading this because people tend to overprice their apps way more than they should which hurts sales. Time spent doesn't always justify a high price, quality does.
The problem is the iTunes Store. The new design is hurting developers from being seen. I don't know when it changed to the current mess it is, possibly iOS 6; however, I know it was normal in iOS 4-5. Bring it back!
I'm not a fan of the new iTunes Store either. I still don't understand why they took something that worked well and made it work less well.
i'm not sure it worked well but i totally agree that they just made it worse.
Yeah searching and seeing 1 app at a time in the card view kind of sucks for discovering new apps.
totally agree. I don't look for new apps now because of that.
Whoa, these are totally awesome reads
This is one of the better reads in a long time. Thank you for the information.
Just stumbled on this article. Very useful information about how to price your apps, sell them, and earn a living.
We've just released our own service for app developers and marketers too, it's http://www.rdrct.it/, maybe you could do a blog about us and spread the word?

LAS CRUCES, N.M. – New Mexico State wide receiver Austin Franklin has been named an SI.com Honorable Mention All-American, Tuesday. Franklin, a sophomore from Dallas, Texas had one of the best seasons for a wide receiver in school history and is now the 13th football player in school history to earn All-America honors.
"It feels good to be honored as an All-American," Franklin said. "I just want to take God, my friends, my family, my teammates and coaches for all the support."
"I think this great for Austin," head coach DeWayne Walker said. "You could see him mature not only as a football player but as a person this season. These types of accolades are not only good for Austin but good for our program, showing that we are recruiting the right players and are continuing to grow this program."
Franklin led the Aggies in receiving in 2012, with 74 catches for 1,245 yards, averaging 103.8 yards receiving a game and 6.17 catches a contest. He also ranked eighth in the nation in receiving yards per game and 33rd in catches per game. Franklin was second in the league in receiving yards per game, catches per game and all-purpose yards per game. His season numbers rank as the third most receiving yards in a single season in school history. Franklin recorded seven 100-yard receiving games and a 200-yard receiving game during the season, while catching a team-high nine touchdowns, helping him lead the team in scoring as well. He was also named a Biletnikoff semi finalist.

State of the U.S. economy better, not greatBy CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER
and PAUL WISEMAN
The Associated Press | February 13,2013AP FILE PHOTO
In this Jan. 24, 2012 file photo, President Barack Obama delivers his State of the Union address on Capitol Hill in Washington.WASHINGTON The U.S. economy, the expected focus of Tuesday nights State of the Union speech, is much healthier than it was four years ago. Yet growth remains slow and unemployment high.
In early 2009, the U.S. economy was in the midst of a full-blown panic sparked by the collapse of a housing bubble.
Companies were slashing jobs. The unemployment rate was surging. Auto sales in January 2009 had reached a 26-year low.
You dont need to hear another list of statistics to know that our economy is in crisis, President Barack Obama said in his first State of the Union-style address in February 2009.
The numbers were frightening.
Employers cut 794,000 jobs in January 2009 and 4.5 million from November 2008 through April 2009.
Home prices plunged 19 percent in the 12 months that ended in January 2009. Eventually, they fell by a third overall before bottoming in late 2011.
Perhaps the clearest barometer of the pain was soaring unemployment.
The unemployment rate was 7.8 percent in January 2009, just below the current 7.9 percent. But only two months later, in March 2009, it was nearly a full point higher 8.7 percent. By October, it had peaked at 10 percent.
The recovery has been agonizingly slow. Consumers have been wary about spending after piling up debt in the mid-2000s. Local governments, squeezed by tight budgets, have cut 560,000 jobs in four years.
And until recently, an anemic housing market discouraged the home construction that in past economic recoveries had powered growth.
Now, companies are hiring modestly but steadily. Employers added an average of 181,000 jobs a month in 2012 and 175,000 in 2011. Still, unemployment remains far higher than the 5 percent to 6 percent that economists regard as normal.
But home prices are finally rebounding as sales and housing starts have recovered. And Americans are buying cars again.
During the last four years, the economy has stabilized, says economist Sung Won Sohn of California State University Channel Islands.
What has happened to the economy since 2009 likely would have happened whoever occupied the White House, Sohn says.
We tend to give a lot of credit or blame (for the economy) to the incumbent president, he says. The fact of the matter is, the U.S. economy is like an aircraft carrier. You can turn it around but not on a dime.MORE IN National / World BusinessNEW YORK Yes, your mutual fund may own some Greek stocks. No, most likely not a lot.

Open Source: Salvation or Suicide? (HBR Case Study and Commentary)
Scott Wilson; Ajit Kambil; Jonathan Schwartz; Eric Levin; Gary P. Pisano; Michael J. Bevilacqua
Price: $6.93
This HBR Case Study includes both the case and the commentary. For teaching purposes, this reprint is also available in two other versions: case study-only, reprint R0804X, and commentary-only, R0804Z.
Amp Up, a wildly popular electronic-music game, is the brainchild of KMS's cherished programmers, who now spend their time trying to keep customers dazzled with upgrades. But a couple of start-ups have ripped off the idea using their own code - which is open source. Now they're demanding that KMS float with the rising tide and join the open-source community. How could the company make money without its IP? And why should it try? Four experts comment on this fictional case study in R0804A and R0804Z. Jonathan Schwartz, the CEO of Sun Microsystems, says that if KMS is confident it knows what its customers will want next - and if it's content with a small corner of the market - it should stay proprietary. But it will pay a reputational price. Eric Levin, the executive vice president of Techno Source, suggests that KMS take a middle path: license its software to third-party companies and add features to promote community building. This approach could fund itself through royalties or fees and would allow KMS to approve or veto third-party products. Gary P. Pisano, of Harvard Business School, points out that an open-source strategy could increase Amp Up's rate of improvement, enhance users' satisfaction with the game, and reduce KMS's development costs. But if the company stops competing on the basis of its code, it had better be sure of the strength of its downstream capabilities. Michael J. Bevilacqua, of the law firm WilmerHale, warns that KMS risks greater liability for intellectual-property infringement if it joins the open-source community, where code carries no guarantee that it doesn't infringe on someone's IP rights and providers offer no indemnification.
Learning objective:
In this fictional case study, a company that makes electronic music games must decide whether to embrace open-source software by allowing users to alter the firm's product code. The reader will consider questions such as how companies can make money if they give away their intellectual property, what advantages open source offers, and whether there are other ways to build community around a product without resorting to open source.

Intellectual capital; Open source software

I read a LOT of headlines each day, scan through about a third of those posts and if it really captures my attention I will read the entire thing or if I find a headline that looks like it's breaking news. Those are a couple of things that makes it a top post. Another that makes it a top post is if it gets RT'd by several people on Twitter, and finally if I know the author of the blog as is the case with the first 'Top Post'. It just goes to show you how you can form relationships online through social media.
I'm a member of a group called "Kickin' It with Klout" on Facebook, and one of the members, Klaudia Jurewicz has a blog called the 'Groovy Pink Blog' with some really cute posts I just had to share. I'm sure you'll like it too. If you'd like to follow her on Twitter, her Twitter handle is @KlaudiaJurewicz.
Digital Trends come out with some interesting headlines and the one I read yesterday was Facebook employee leaks new 'listen with friends' Facebook Music feature. Apparently a Facebook employee mistakenly tweeted information about this feature. Can you say DOH! You can see why I put this as a top post.
Sometimes you just come across a blog with great stories. Stories so well written and inspiring you want to share them which is why it's listed as a top post. That's the case with the Kids Can Do It site. While this site doesn't have anything to do with social media platforms, it does have to do with being social because the author of the stories, Sandra McLeod Humphrey is a member of Kickin' It With Klout. Be sure to check out Sandra's Facebook page as well.
If you like learning about Social Media you will like Dorien Morin-van Dam's More In Media. She makes all of her posts entertaining as well as educational. Be sure to check out her post Social Media Wait Training. Dorien's Twitter handle is @MoreinMedia if you'd like to give her a Tweet!
These are just a few blogs I'd like to mention and I will be introducing more as time passes. If you know of a great blog or post you think should be featured, or if you would like to share your link in the comment section below, be sure to do so. You can also share your links on my Facebook fan page, Google+ or give me a Tweet!

Quick Links
Installing Printer Software
To ensure you have the latest software, we recommend that you download software for your printer and computer from http://www.hp.com/go/customercare. Make sure you select the software that is intended for both your computer operating system and your printer model.
During the printer software installation:
- Follow the on-screen instructions until you are prompted for Connection Type.
Select either Through the Network, Network, or Wireless when prompted.
- The wording will depend on the version of software you are installing.
- In some cases the software may automatically find your wireless settings for you.
- Follow the on-screen directions to finish installing the software for your printer.
If you have used either or the control panel Wireless Setup Wizard methods to establish a wireless connection between the printer and your wireless network, or if you have already connected the printer to your network and are now installing the software onto another computer which will share the printer, the software should find the printer over the network during the installation process.
Sometimes the software has difficulty finding the printer over the network. If this happens, you will have a chance to do an "advanced search" for the printer using the printer's assigned IP address. You can find the by printing either the Wireless Network Test report or a Network Configuration page.
If this is a first time installation and you are using the USB setup of the wireless method, the software will not find the printer on the network and you will be guided though creating a wireless connection for the printer.

= A Double Double Mashup!
Tim Hortons may well be the most recognizable brand in Canada and this Google Maps mashup may well become the most popular in Canada (Next to the Beerhunter of course). Tim Hortons is the national donut and coffee shop named after Tim Horton, an x-NHL hockey player. The chain serves millions across Canada and in some northern US states. In some cases there are many, many locations in one city satisfying the cravings for that next "double double" (That's "Canadian" for coffee with double cream and double sugar and yes, there's a wikipedia entry for it)!
Pentura Solutions, experimenting with the Google Maps API, have created a Google Maps mashup for every Tim Hortons location in Canada. Using a mapping interface as your starting point coffee cup map markers plot each Tim Hortons location. As you pan the map more cups appear as the database automatically repopulates based on the area shown. Clicking a cup will display location address details, along with how that store is equipped to serve you (Drive through, lunch menu and dining area). Quick links to major Canadian cities are included in a drop down menu from the top and a full screen view is also available for a better look.
Tech description: On the backend of this mashup Pentura uses a 'Spatial DataBox' (SDB) to serve the hundreds of map pins at a rate of up to 10,000 clients per second. Apparently the SDB can serve AJAX map mashups faster and more economically than any other database. The SDB runs as a servlet within a Java web server. They use Tomcat but Websphere could be used. Above the SDB is a JavaScript connector, which gives any AJAX application a high-level programming interface through which queries are sent to the SDB and replies are received. Custom AJAX components sit on the top to coordinate the application. Data for this mashup has been screen scraped from the publicly accessible Tim Hortons website.
To locate a Tim Hortons location in the USA or by specific street or intersection, try the Tim Hortons Store Locator tool which makes use of MapQuest --> :( . Hopefully Tim Hortons HQ will consider taking on Pentura's app to replace this non map friendly app that is currently in place! :)

Rated 3 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 1 out of 5 by Kim23 Extremely Disappointed It has only been a month since I purchased this clutch, and the gold logo is slowly turning rose gold... One piece of the leather strap also broke off the gold chain, I am guessing the glue did not hold on. I did use it quite often because I like the size of the bag, about 4 days/week, however I do not think that is an excuse for how the bag is already coming apart. If I knew the quality would be this horrible, I would only have used it for special occasions, or opted for another handbag selection. I am truly disappointed in the quality of this handbag for the price that I paid. May 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Natalie20 Classic Beauty I purchased this clutch in black. This clutch is absolutely goregous and very versitile. It is the perfect cocktail/evening/event clutch. It could probably be worn to casual events, but I choose to keep it for special events. The leather is excellent. It is textured, so I will only assume it will wear well. It is spacious for a clutch as well. The only odd thing I did not expect is the gold chain to be so heavy. I do not notice it much when wearing the purse, but when I take it off to wear as a clutch I cannot believe the weight! Do NOT let this sway your opinion at all though. This clutch is so classy and rich, you will not be let down. Get compliments every single time it makes a debut! This is my first TB, and it will not be my last. April 29, 2014

Sinful Donuts in Chennai
Visited this place twice with my fiance when I was in Chennai. The one thing that comes to my mind when I think of Donut House is sinful, lip-smacking donuts. There is nothing great in the ambiance as its a very small place. The combo offers are really reasonable, it gives you an opportunity to indulge in a wide range of donuts at a reasonable rate. The service is good as they are quick and friendly. My favorite of the donuts being Alien, Kappi Club, Cream full, Vanilla dark chocolate donuts. I would suggest everyone who visits this place must at-least try one of the above donuts. They also have delicious desserts. If you are a fan of donuts then make sure you visit this place.

Little rings of heaven
What is round, and sweet, or
What is round and has cheese on top
What is round and has a gooey sweet filling with a simple icing?
There can only be one answer.. Donuts from Donut House!! The outlet i visited was the one in Egmore and it was World Donut Day- June1st and they had an offer " Buy 1 get 1 free".. How cool is that? So, on the way back from a meeting, i hopped into the place and brought home 2 boxes of 6 donuts in all..
This was not my 1st visit to the Donut house, but it was the 1st time i was there alone.. The very 1st visit was to catch up with a friend, when we split a sandwich and had a cool drink.. The 2nd time was a meeting with my partner & a PR agency... So, this was a special visit of sorts!! I have had donuts in many many many places, and also know how to make them at home [ i did attend a bakery class thanks to a friend wanting to learn cooking/baking before she tied the knot] Since then, i had made donuts at home plenty of times, but they were all the usual boring donuts with chocolate icing.
Alas, the oven died a not so pleasant death and since then no baking, unless it can be cooked in a micro wave oven. This brought an end to my Donut making days...!!
So, anyways, i digress. There i was at Donut house, and instantly eyes went towards the display counter, making sure there were some of different flavours still sitting pretty in their trays. I picked out the savory Donut- with grated cheese and Italian herbs to eat, and went on to order some for take away. It was the 1st time i was having a savory donut, the common ones are with chocolate icing [sold in bakeries across the country and very few are yummy, most are dry, dense or just weird tasting]
Special mention: All donuts at Donut House are eggless!!
Spotted Bhuvanesh in the kitchen, who graciously came to say hello and we ended up chatting quite a bit!! Recently, he has opened the 2nd outlet [not counting the stand in Express Avenue Food court], which he said was faring quite nicely.
I noticed an image of what looked like Donuts with Olives, and instantly Bhuvanesh jumped in saying "sorry, we dont have it today" :)
The donuts look so inviting, with shimmering sauces and toppings, all sitting neatly in the trays as if they were waiting for marching orders. I brought home a few chocolate donuts, 1 that was lemon tea with a beautiful lemon filling, 1 that had blueberry filling and an Irish coffee donut.... not only did these donuts look good, they tasted divine as well... Friends & Family who had them couldnt stop raving about them!!
Food: 9/10
Service: 8/10 [ i picked up my order from the counter]
Price: 8/10 [Rs50 per donut]
Varieties: 9.5/10 [waiting for them to surprise me some more ;)]

Donut The Chennai Way
Bringing donuts to Chennai. Thanks to Bhuvanesh of Donut house. The best part of the egmore outlet is that it has an see through kitchen. One can actually see the way donuts are being made and decorated using simple things like chocolate sauce, sprinkles , chocochips, jams, squash etc. Very innovative in the way the decide on the flavourings and toppings. By getting their outlets across the city, now donuts are accessible to everyone in town.

THE place for donuts in the city. Great service at all outlets. Best ones would be Alien (chocolate filled and chocolate covered), blueberry glaze. pretty much anything on the menu is good, even the savoury donuts. The shakes are refreshing as is the iced tea. the seating and interiors at this branch are comfortable. A nice place to hang out with friends or family. Or just pick up a box of six at the price of 5 to share at home :)

Made me go donuts
A friend and I came here for dinner full fledged :D
We bought a box of 6 that comes at the price of 5 donuts. The best donut here is definitely the vanilla with dark chocolate. The vanilla filling just lifts your senses and the quality of chocolate is sure to leave you craving for more! The butterscotch donut is amazing too. Try their dark chocolate marble for the classic chocolate donut! :D

Delicious & Divine donuts
The donuts here are really one of the best in the city .
Small , yet really tasty and melts in the mouth .
Priced at 50-60 / donut , it may be a tad high given the size yet ,their donuts are really a must try. Esp the mango and the alien donut which can really make u gobble up the entire thing in one bit
They also have a wednesday or thursday only offer , so check out that as well

Donut Lovers' Paradise!
A really fun place to chill out. They have live bands playing on Tuesdays. Even if you're not a donut fan, Donut House is an amazing place to go. The sandwiches and drinks will make up for your dislike of donuts. It is vegetarian however the taste makes up for the lack of meat! But if you are a donut fan, the alien is a must have! Dark chocolate with a lot more chocolate in the mix! And if you really have a sweet tooth, turn it into an almighty which is a donut of your choice, with a scoop of ice cream and some whipped cream on top! It is to die for! The ambience is very classy, food is definitely tasty, and service is decent and the food is decently priced.

DH is sweet
Donut House, run by Dinesh and Bhuvanesh, is a great place to try some delicious donuts. The egmore outlet is done all in white and features trendy seating and music. They have a huge glass area which showcases multiple donut options. The staff are friendly and the place is pristine. I feel the pricing is right and the donuts, delicious. I specially recommend the mango-filled one , the butterscotch donut and the white chocolate donut. Great place for some donuts and coffee! Cheers !

Came back unsatisfied
Just been to Donut House in Egmore. It was good but came out feeling quite empty. I am huge lover of Donuts/Sandwiches... but somehow after 1 sandwich and 1 donut each, we came out with an empty feeling. Not quite satisfied for reason i cannot put my finger on... maybe its the excess sugary stuff on the donut or the sandwich, whose filling fell everywhere except inside the bread slices. Will i visit again? not sure... Once i visit Donut Factory in EA Mall, i might be able to make a choice.

QoS has gone bad
Hi there.
For last 6 months or so I am a regular at Donut House. Great food, great service, great ambience are the 3 things I primarily look for. Annalakshmi, Fruitshop on greams road, HSB , Sathyam , Sigri, Barbeque nation,Tuscana, are a few places I could vouch for. Though I've almost dined in every place in town For last 6 months I've been mostly in to Haji Ali and your Donut house. Met you, the owner, couple of times there. I loveeee your donuts. Now, the problem. During my last visit to your place on last saturday(May 19) as usual I've been served some delicious donuts(Alien, Rasperry). But the service was pathetic. The tv-watching service crew really shocked me. I dont think the Donut House lovers will need a TV running cricket matches. But apparently from the one who took orders to the men at kitchen everyone were so busy at watching some IPL matches that they hardly found time to serve their customers well. I adore Donut House. I've introduced this wonderful place to no less than 10 of my friends. Needless to say everyone of them loved it. So, i dont want this to be a tale of also-ran place. Be stringent with your crew. Advice them to show better attitude towards your customers. Above all, remove that damn TV. Its not good for business I feel. Good luck.
Apologies if I've been not so courteous. I prefer to utter what I feel.

We went nuts having the Donuts
If you want warm,fluffy and cream filled Donuts, the best place to have them in Chennai is Donot House. My daughter is a big fan of Donut and she just loved all of them. They were definitely better than Dunkin Donuts. We did try the sandwich and they were also good. All the ingredients were fresh and its evident that they use the best ingredients and give a lot of importance to quality. The best part is all the Donuts are eggless and a delight for vegetarians.
As earlier reviewers mentioned the ambience is cool and well maintained. There is no doubt that going forward Donut House will be our first stop when we crave for some donuts. I saw an article in The Hindu and decided to try this place and boy it did turn out to be a good hit with the family. Keep it going Donut House

Can be Much Much Better!
I was extremely excited about the opening of a dedicated place for Donuts in Chennai. Being a fanatic of donuts, I badly wanted to escape the sub standard McRennet Donuts we have been putting up with here for years.
I did not want to get judgemental about a place with one visit and hence my review is coming after 3 visits to this place.
First off, the ambience is pretty chic and bubbly. The glass walls of the kitchen(from where the donuts are actually made) makes it possible to actually get a visual impact of the donuts yo are yearning for.
But other than looking good, there is nothing spectacular about these donuts.
The thing which is making the place such a hit is the fact that it is the first such place in Chennai. I have personally come back two more times only because it is relatively better than the other bakeries.
I dont wish to be critical just for the sake of it and I understand all other reviews here seem to love this place. But the quality of the donuts could be made much much better.
I seriously want this place to improve because I will keep coming back here. I totally love the concept and I want you guys to grow. Maybe you should take a leaf out of Cafe Peterdonuts at Aundh, Pune. They have mindblowing donuts, possibly better than the Dunkins or Mad over donuts. Though theirs are priced at around 75Rs per donut, its is more than worth the taste. (I visited Pune for a week and I had donuts for lunch for atleast 5 days.)
Also the beverages and sandwiches can also be made better,even if it is only a donut place.
The success may last only till some competitor comes and gives way better donuts like the ones at Peterdonuts.
Am looking forward to some REAL better DONUT affair.

Delicious, Lovely and Tasty
This place is for people who want to try out something different. Donut House has a great ambiance, very good service, and most importantly, great donuts. Tasted the Chocolate Inside Out, White Chocolate, and the Strawberry donut and all of them were outstanding (esp the strawberry donut). They also serve some other cuisines such as sandwiches and beverages. The place also has a simple and well-designed kiosk.

Hello Shanchez7,
Thanks for that lovely complement. Do keep visiting us for more flavors and products. my best wishes for that relationship which you intend to develop...
Deliciously Donuts !!
Me and a bunch of my friends got to a nearby restaurant for dinner. Unsatisfied with the food that we had in the restaurant, we came to Donut-House.
We were at once attracted with the ambience.. Very neat. and the bright colors suit well..
With the look on this place, i was definitely expecting it to be expensive. Rather amazingly we had around 12 donuts and the bill was ONLY 412.. !! how does the owner even run this place with such a low price !
Donuts were Reallyyyyyy Soft... the Italian spices, custard, strawberry, irish coffee.. almost all the donuts that i tasted simply rocked...
Its definitely a LIKE LIKE !! would recommend this to everyone.

Go Nuts for these Donuts
When i first heard of an all-donut shop in Chennai, I was surprised. Eager to check it out, we ventured one afternoon and got a take away. The take-away was an instant hit at my house and everyone loved it. The donuts are very well-made and the ingredients are top notch. They have a lot of chocolate variants, but do try the strawberry one. It oozes with such a delicious strawberry concoction. Definitely worth a try. Check out the 'Alien' and the 'Strawberry' donuts.
July 26, 2011response from management at Donut House:
Hello Arwindh,
i am delighted to know that your family enjoyed our products.As you have rightly mentioned we only use the best available products (Ingredients) to produce donuts. We don't cut cost in our production range. Apart from the usual sweet donuts we have developed couple of savory ones, do check them out the next time you drop by. We are gonna serve week end breakfast soon, stop by for that as well. Cheers! have a great week ahead.

Eggless Heaven!!
After having read the reviews here i decided to take some time off my work today and visit the place, and am i delighted!!.
The donuts are attractive, and delicious, frankly i have not tasted anything better even for much more cost anywhere(and i have lived in delhi and mumbai).
The rates are very reasonable considering what i normally pay for egg less pastries and ilk, and the pay for 9 and get 12 is really attractive!!
Service did not take as much time as i thought it would and the donuts are delicious, especially the alien one...
they deliver to some 2 km range, but i request the managers to extend it to the city...please oh please!! ....i live in selaiyur , east tambaram and taking the donuts home is a headache if i dont have a car ....you can charge delivery for orders less than 400 or whatever...
all in all, every donut lover should visit..veg or not, and those who dont like donuts should give it one try.

I am very happy to know you enjoyed your time in Donut House. To be very frank to you, reviews like your's are motivating us to work even better to get you the best products. Coming to the delivery issues, we are just setting up our delivery systems and procedures. I regret to say that it will take some more time for us to deliver all over Chennai, just for the simple reasons that we don't have a better idea of the those area, but we hope to get it done soon.

Great place for your sugar fix
For more reviews and some mouthwatering pictures, visit my blog!!
This week I decided to venture a little out of the comfort zone. We trekked all the way to Egmore to visit the recently opened Donut House. Bright yellow dominates the decor and gives a warm, chirpy feel to the whole place. The live kitchen is a nice touch.
Quickly we got down to business and ordered a bunch of donuts. The donuts have an obvious chocolate bias. The Coffee Roasted Almonds was a hit. The donut was sophisticated with a hint of coffee, a sprinkling of almonds and a nice dose of dark chocolate.
The Alien is all about the chocolate. Liberal layers of dark chocolate topped with white chocolate dusting. I took a gluttonous bite and the chocolate stuffing came oozing out. Yumm! That said, I do wish the dark chocolate had been richer. Would have made it perfect.
The Oreo was a bit of a letdown. It was good but it didn't knock my socks off, the way I expected it to.
My favourite donut was the Italian Spices. This savoury donut was incredibly good. Lots of cheese topped with some not-too-spicy spices and herbs complemented the inherently sweet dough perfectly. I preferred this to all the chocolate donuts and given my incorrigible sweet tooth, that's saying something. I highly recommend that you try this.
The donuts were all warm and soft. The dough was not oversweet and tasted good. Thankfully, it wasn't all about the toppings.
They also serve sandwiches, coffee and some drinks (of the non-alcoholic variety).
They also have a kiosk at EA. Deciding to see if this one was as good, I hopped over to the stall later that day. The Peanut Dark Chocolate had a lovely flavour and strong peanut butter overtones.
However, the variety at the EA kiosk is limited and the donuts not as fresh. If you can manage the time, I recommend that you hop across to the main branch.
Donut House brings some much needed variety to the quick eats scene in Chennai. I see myself visiting this place soon and am fervently hoping that they produce some delicious Bavarian custard filled donuts.
Donut House delivers to select localities.
Pricing: Glazed donuts cost Rs.42 and others cost Rs. 46.
Best Donuts
Best donuts i have ever tasted. It was so fresh & rich. When they say its filled with chocolate or strawberry jelly, they mean it. Fillings flow in your mouth giving rich flavor...But the price can be reviewed...Seems a bit expensive...

Im high on Donuts
Im still high on Donuts after my visit to Donut House this evening .. Four of us.. 18 donuts and we had still not finished tasting everything in the menu .. making us only want to visit the place yet again ..
Nice place .. neat ambience .. good service .. very yummy donuts .. !!
The donuts are made fresh, which adds flavour to the yummy toppings they come with .. Great place to catch up with friends on a lazy evening or to just drop by for some dessert (I mean donuts) after a good meal ..
They are very light on the tummy , the only reason you may want to stop eating them is cause of the overdose of sweetness of the chocolate topping.
Way to go Donut house !

The best in Donuts!
Sick of eating those hard, wont fit in a bite Donuts from the 'bakers' untill now! Donut house comes as a whiff of fresh air! Very soft, doughy, eggless with a wonderful variety. taste is tops, though would love to see them get more experimental with donuts than to just use differrent toppings and icings! coffee wtih the standard cinnamon will never lose flavor, but sadly the waiter could not differenciate between glazed and sprinkled! Hope they start off on those mini donuts soon. check em out for coffee and donuts.

Alien is by far the bestest donut i ever had, nice chocolaty and chocolate oozing out from everywhere. Divine!! Other few were fav's were the Oreo donuts, Mint Chocolate and the Irish Coffee(Not recommended for people who dont like coffee :P) Even the Strawberry filled donuts and Chocolate filled with blueberry was nice.

Must Visit
After reading a good review of this place on "THE HINDU" i wanted to check out this place! It definitely lived up to my expectation! Place was pretty happening for a Friday evening, the interiors were chic.. The service was amazing ( Run by young people) and more importantly the DONUTSsss, aaahhh it was bliss. They have a variety of flavours for everyone's taste bud. My personal fav was The Alien Triple Chocolate.. It was chocolate inside, outside and everywhere! I luvd it! They have a lot more things like cofee, shakes, sandwiches!
Pricing is not like the hot breads donuts, but hey you get quality donuts and they are just yummm! So you really can't complain.
Final verdict : Big Thumbs UP

Go-Nuts at Donut House
Donut house has THE best donuts in the city currently. The donuts are fresh, The chocolate is smooth and rich and every bite seems to just melt in your mouth. The look and presentation of the donuts are very inviting and appealing.
Now getting to the rest of the details.
Pricing :
Glazed Donut : Rs 39 - A donut glazed on top with sugar sprinkled with cinnamon etc. The one I tried was very fresh and soft ( as are all their donuts ) but i personally found it too 'sugary' . Other people have no issues gobbling these down.
Assorted : Rs 45 - Donuts covered / filled with diff types of chocolate, and looks absolutely mouth watering. The oreo donuts seems to be a hit. My personal favourite is the milk chocolate. Its so good it should be illegal. Half way through the donut, I feel like I've done something quite adulterous ;)
So far there are around 10 different varieties to choose from and they cater to fans of milk, dark and white chocolate.
On the issue of pricing - 2 donuts and a coffee will set you back by Rs.150. Now im not saying thats 'cheap' my any means, but hey!, a pastry or baked portion for one cost just the same or if not much more.
Ambience :
The decor is neat, The donuts are displayed well and the air-conditioning works great!. Area-wise it isnt lavish space, but its sufficient for about 25 people. Thats enough i guess. The entire making-process of the donut can be see through a glass partition and from what i can see its quite hygienic.
Service :
The people were courteous and pleasant. It does take a little while for a fresh batch of donuts to be made but thats the process and theres no speeding it up. Nevertheless there are quite of few choices of hot and cold teas/coffees to help you pass the time.
Verdict :
Its a place i have visited about 3-4 times in the past 2 weeks or so, and its worth many more visits

Pretty expensive
had been here en route for a movie to grab some donuts and although its pretty new in town the place was buzzing with activity.
Guess a bunch of young entrpreneurs are running the show and its pretty obvious..
we tried a chocolate donut and one with a cream and a strawberry jelly one..
The chocolate one was normal.. what you would get anywhere else.. but the strawberry jelly with cream was simply awesome.. it was just melting in the mouth and a very rich experience indeed.
The pricing part has to be considered a little if you have to see consistent business ..two donuts came around 90 Rs ..
Nice crowd, lots of people doing a take away of donuts and its freshly prepared...
Verdict : Good snacking option, a little high on pricing.

Pixel Project wows crowd using Xbox Kinect
Red Bull Mobile South Africa launched at a lavish affair in the Turbine Hall in downtown Jozi on the 8th February 2011. They spared no expense to launch their new service to a few hundred privileged guests. It was an audiovisual feast organised by the unstoppable team at H-Factor. Several projectors electronically painted the venue with stunning imagery and breath-taking footage from Red Bull's Extreme network all controlled and synchronized by Meme Motion. With an entertainment line up that included the Black Coffee, Beat Box and Goldfish – guests were thrilled to find that an even bigger surprise was in store for them that evening – International dance band Faithless rocked them through to the late hours of the night.
Our contribution to this event was a captivating installation – a "portal" of sorts that connected guests from one side of the venue with the other. People at the bar could "see through" to the stage and dance floor and interact with people there and the guests on the dance floor could connect with the guests by the bar. Using the motion detection ability of the Xbox Kinect and the ribbon element which is part of Red Bull Mobile's branding – we used the two to create an animating ribbon which was transformed as guests walked past, danced or interacted with it which revealed more of the other places around the venue the bigger the portal got.
It was a big hit, as people were waving at each other and dancing with each other through the portal. People were so intrigued that they dashed around the venue trying to find the other source of the video feed. The ribbon also featured in the VIP bar, where VIPs could see through this organic, pulsating portal to the stage.

rights and love
With regards to gay marriage, she constantly says "It's about love." To her, teaching people about the equal dignity and grace of gay love is an essential element to legalizing and protecting gay marriage. I don't see it that way.
Now, of course, on one level, it's about love. If not for gay love, there would be little reason for gay marriage, or at any rate, very few people wanting to take the plunge. As I hope is clear from the previous posts I've devoted to the issue, I believe in the equality of gay love without reservation. But in the specific tactical question, I don't think that convincing people of that equality is the best, most effective way for us to go about supporting the right of men to marry men and women to marry women. We need to be careful not to allow the fact of the very real gains we have made in this department in recent decades to delude us into thinking that there doesn't remain a large contingent of Americans who want nothing to do with gay people, who would prefer never to have to think about them at all, thanks. I don't know that we'll ever get them into the coalition, though I wish we could. More to the point, the more that we pressure them to come around to our point of view regarding gay love, the more it plays precisely into the notion that those supporting gay marriage are trying to force something on other people. The more we frame gay marriage as a question of an affirmative duty to honor gay love, the more it ensures a defensive reaction or backlash.
There are also people who have views about the preferred legal status of homosexuals that are perfectly consonant with mine, but who have never relinquished the "ick factor", on a social or moral level. Some people are far more comfortable with the notional idea of gay equality than they are with actual gay people. And look, who cares, at the end of the day? These people are natural allies. They're precisely the kind of people that the gay marriage movement has to incorporate as voters (if not organizers) if a national gay marriage movement is going to form and work. But I suspect that people who feel queasy about gay coupling even while they support gay equality would be squeezed out of my friend's movement based on respect for love.
There are some who say we don't need either type to get to 50% plus one. They may be right, and it may ultimately be the case that we need to simply say "see you later" to certain groups of voters. We aren't going to convince everyone. But if we define the groups of people who will never be in our coalition broadly rather than narrowly, we're engaging in exactly the kind of political suicide I see some conservatives engaging in now. It's like the gang at the Corner, pushing more and more people out of the conservative tent; as a tactic in democracy, that's lunacy. We don't need to draw tight definitions about who is or is not a righteous member of the community who supports gay marriage. We only need to ask, "Who believes in equal marriage rights for all consenting adults?" And then we need to use the tactics and methods available to us to help convince some of the people who answer negatively.
I think we should take a page from those promoting Prop 8, as a matter of fact, strange as that might seem. What was their primary media tactic? What did their television ads have in common? They reframed the argument by bringing up the ( bogus) claims that defeating Prop 8 would have meant losses of religious or parental freedoms for others. They co-opted the argument from freedom, and I genuinely believe that was the difference. My intuition is that there are far more Americans (and Californians) sensitive to the perception that some are being denied basic human rights than there are Americans or Californians who are fully comfortable with and committed to gay marriage rights. This is why the Yes on 8 ads, disingenuous though they were, were so effective; they cast the No on 8 people as the ones striving to deny citizens their rights, and even bigoted Americans tend to protect civil rights when they can. The failure to respond forcefully and effectively to these claims, if you ask me, is the greatest failure of the No on Prop 8 movement.
So, no, I don't think the political question is about love. I think it's about demonstrating to the American people that gay marriage is not a matter of enshrining special new rights for some minority but rather merely a question of equitably and fairly extending pre-existing rights to all people. We can't, in my estimation, use politics to make those not compelled to respect or love gay people do so.
Nor perhaps should we. As I try to be plain in saying, I am pretty close to an unreconstructed leftist, what you occasionally see referred to as a "paleoliberal". I do have, however, this conservatism within me, if it pleases you to call it that: I don't think that the government, or even society, should be in the business of conditioning emotional responses. If Helen and I have a point of symmetry in our dueling political visions, it's that government's job is to create the legal structures which give individuals fundamental "you shall nots" that create the space necessary for real human interactions, where the business of respecting or loving people who are not like you actually goes down. The state can't, in fact, create equal respect, it can only enforce legal tolerance. The notion that it should try to do more is creepy and borderline authoritarian. Politics is the art of the possible, but that doesn't mean that everything possible is prudent or should be pursued.
So where a politics of love? "Society", if it is to mean anything at all, is the product not of love between strangers, but in the recognition from one citizen that another is living a life himself, that he has aspiration and dreams and desires and wants. A straight man might be uncomfortable with the idea of gay love or gay sex, but if he can remember that gay people are living the same mad dream of American aspiration that he is, he may find within himself the strength to support that which he does not agree with. No, I don't want everyone to walk around in love with everyone else. I want them to walk around knowing that the love they feel for their friends, family and lovers is the same love that someone feels for the stranger walking beside them. Society can't be built with manners, rights, or rules alone, but by the recognition of this fact: that every life is someone's "my life". The most incurable, unapologetic bigot might never respect the gay people around him. He may be able to come to the notion that the gay people around him are ultimately as beholden to him as he is to them. That, I believe, is our project, not spreading love, but convincing our country of the natural consequences of the personal loves they already feel. It's worth fighting for.

The simplest way, it seems to me, to get gay marriage legalized would be to use the "door in the face" sales method. Create legislation legalizing marriage between any two species of animal, any human and animal, and any human and inanimate object, and when social conservatives go agog, suggest a much less intense form of the legislation would be merely gay marriage. Because gay marriage doesn't seem so bad compared to the marriage of a man and a panda bear.

I could be wrong, but I believe the Yes on 8 campaign victory was purely tactical.
The NO campaign failed to anticipate black turnout for Obama and its lopsidedness. In addition, No on 8 volunteers describe the campaign as being disorganized. Finally, they believed the early poll numbers that showed No ahead. It appears that there is no Bradley effect, but there is a "gay marriage" effect.
Finally, the Yes on 8 folks were energized and organized. I suspect if the No campaign had been more organized, they would have won. In any case, they'll overturn in 2010 and it'll be all over. The short term demographic trends do not look friendly for social conservatives.
Other notes:
1) The No on 8 TV ads were odd and ineffective -- they also refused to actually use the word "gay" in the ads. It was like those weird drug commercials where they keep telling you to "ask your doctor" without actually referencing what they were advertising. If the No folks are so afraid the core issue is unpopular, they've given up the high ground.
2) The LGBT community has to learn a fundamental lesson: no one above 35 buys into the argument that this fight is equivalent to the African-American civil rights movement. No matter how true it is for the LGBT community, it just doesn't have the same moral resonance for the majority of the voting public. You don't get asked about the Stonewall riots on the US citizenship test, but you do get asked "Who is Martin Luther King, Jr.?"
*Government-approved answer: "A civil rights leader."

I have trouble convincing some people I know that anyone out there is making the argument you are trying to make. They are convinced that the LGBT equality movement has as its ultimate goal the use of state power to punish people who are not tolerant in the politically correct manner. And they don't want to compromise with such a movement, for understandable reasons. This is the backlash you're talking about.
In response, I use a version of the strategy that you (Freddie) outline here when I argue for civil marriages (or, sometimes, civil unions only, for everyone).
Also, I think you've done a really great job on that last paragraph; it sums up your consistent position and puts it in a new light at the same time.
- December 5, 2008 at 3:55 PM
So the gay rights movement should be less focused on the positive liberty of gays to marry and more concerned with the negative liberty of there not being any restrictions on the right to marry whomever one chooses?
I do think, however, that this particular argument seems to miss the main factor driving growing acceptance of gays and gay marriage, which is ordinary day-to-day interaction. The more people think of this debate as reflecting actual people, rather than an abstract category labeled "homosexuals," the more powerful the argument for -- for -- gay marriage gets. While rights talk is clearly important to the project of gay acceptance, it might also have the problematic effect of keeping too much of the argument on the theoretical plane.

When I was a kid (at least 40 years before you were), the pre-Vatican II nuns would tell us before we wrote our exams that "neatness counts."
Which includes not telling falsehoods even in good causes. I reference here your comment about "enthusiastic sodomy among the Spartans."
In fact, none of the Greeks tribes was "enthusiastic" about sodomy. In the dialogs, Socrates thought love of the body was only the first step in rising toward a nonsexual love of Beauty in the abstract. In the Republic, he condemned sodomy. And Aristotle also thought sexual attraction an inferior form of love (philia). The highest form of love, A said, is that between two excellent men who love each other's excellence --not each other's buttocks.
And that was the Athenians! The Spartans, in fact, loathed sodomy. (At least officially; no doubt there were in-the-closet sodomites there also, as there are today among Republican senators.)
And among the pagan Romans, sex was a matter of power--who penetrates whom. It was OK for a male citizen to penetrate either his male or his female slaves, for example; but a male citizen who was found out to be the "bottom"/penetrated was considered both ridiculous and disgusting/loathsome.
One of the odd things about the study of classical history is how much better it has gotten since World War I, as Latin and Greek disappeared from schools. It seems almost as if the historians have become more accurate and more interesting precisely because the number of those reading them has declined.
Two good recent studies of ancient love are the textbook Sexuality in Greek and Roman Culture by Marilyn Skinner and the more popularizing (in a good sense) Eros: The Myth of ancient Greek Sexuality by Bruce Thornton.
The concept that sexual intercourse between two lovers is a sacrament and a source of grace (identical, for example, to receiving Communion or the Eucharist)first was invented--and it could only arise--in a culture totally saturated with Christianity. It was, in fact, invented about 1100 by William, Duke of Aquitaine (grandfather of the better-known Eleanor). But that is another and very long story.

Carly finds an unwanted surprise in Brenda's room, Bobbie tries to calm Scotty from worries of Luke and Laura travelling together, and Luke and Laura receive an invitation.
At GH Scott leaves Nik's room and sees Bobbie. He complains he can't reach Laura wishing she never ran off with Luke. Bobbie quips, "It's not as if they're shacking up in bed somewhere together." She takes him back to his hotel to rest and wait for word on Laura.
At the Metro Court Carly interrupts a room service delivery. Brenda gets out of bed as Carly sees pants on the floor. She berates Brenda for jumping into bed with Sonny as soon as Jax is gone. Carly pulls the blankets down to find Michael and yells, "Why the hell are you in bed with Brenda?" Brenda swears it's not what it looks like. Carly calls Brenda sick and throws Michael his clothes. He says he's okay telling Carly to leave Brenda alone since it's his fault. He begs Carly to leave so he can talk to Brenda. Carly curses while throwing a glass of water at Brenda and leaves. Michael apologizes for Carly, and for taking advantage of Brenda. Brenda disagrees that he made her do anything she didn't want to. Michael checks his messages and sees he's late for a meeting with AJ. In the lobby Carly orders staff to get Brenda out of her hotel. Scott and Bobbie arrive and Carly confesses she found Michael in bed with Brenda. She realizes once Sonny finds out he'll kill Brenda. She goes to call him but Bobbie grabs the phone. Scott jumps in and strategically addresses Carly so Michael can sneak out of the Metro Court. Carly takes their advice to avoid jeopardizing her relationship with her son. Alone she looks at photos of her kids. Brenda interrupts handing her Michael's tie that was left in her bed.
Mac and Felicia meet Anna in her office. She's anxious that Lulu, Dante, Luke and Laura are unaccounted for. Mac and Felicia offer their help. Anna say's it's in the hands of the WSB. She compliments how well they look together. Mac announces Felicia proposed. She denies and says it's the other way around and she's waiting for a ring. They congratulate Anna for reuniting with Duke. Anna isn't sure but shares they did kiss. She thinks it's not resolved yet.
At the Quartermaine's AJ calls Liz and they remember the great time they had at the ball. He's eager for a second date. Duke visits and AJ compliments him on his tango and asks if he and Anna are back together. Duke doesn't know. AJ encourages him to keep a positive attitude. Duke asks if he's doing the same with Elizabeth. Later, Michael arrives late and confesses he spent the night with Brenda Barrett. AJ spits his beverage out.
Alexis and Elizabeth talk to an unconscious Nik at GH. Liz tells Alexis he left because of her. While she shares her love and hope for him to get better he squeezes her hand. He wakes. Liz explains what happened to him. A doctor wants Liz to keep Nik calm. Alexis updates him on Spencer and Liz asks if he remembers what happened. Nik knows Lulu is in danger. He's told what happened and he explains Helena doesn't care about Lulu. Liz asks, "Who does?" Nik says, "My father."
Luke wakes up remembering the last few moments aboard the Haunted Star. His head hurts. He looks around and finds himself in bed with Laura. He wakes her. She wants to know where they are. He doesn't know. "We're in bed together," she exclaims. She asks why, but he hopes she has the answer. They piece together their fight with Cassadine's men and search for a way out of the room. They find themselves locked in trying to figure out who carried them there and why. Luke thinks it's retribution for killing Helena. Laura can't believe she's dead and Luke can't believe it took him 30 years to kill her. Luke thinks Ethan made it out but he isn't so sure about Dante. Laura realizes her phone is gone and worries about Nikolas. Luke reminds her Alexis said he's fine, "Let's worry about Lulu." Laura looks out the window and remembers the place. Luke asks if they've been there before. Laura answers, "We're on Cassadine Island." Laura realizes it is the room where she gave birth. She's confused why she's been brought there. Luke lists all the Cassadines dead and living trying to make sense and searches the room further. He finds an invitation to dress black tie for a meeting. They dress in clothes sized for them. Luke yells they're ready and the door unlocks and opens for them. They arrive to an empty formal dining room, a door opens and Stavros enters.

I am wearing an Urban Outfitter dress and Zara heels, while Ingrid is wearing a Victoria Victoria Beckham dress.
Doing our best Posh Spice pose! Werk it gurlz!
Mrs. Beckham appeared at Lane Crawford IFC in Hong Kong and walked around the VIP area with everyone following her trying to get a picture with her. She was pretty in person, petit (hard to believe she's had 4 kids!), well-poised and all I wanted to ask her was to sing "Wannabe"! hehe She stayed for about 5 minutes and made a short speech about her new line before she was escorted by security to her private room.
It was a fun night with free-flowing Moet Chandon and all you can eat gelato. After I met up with friends and hit the town! I love going to Hong Kong and especially when my trips coincide with fabulous fashion parties! Until next time…

By Ronnie from USA on 2007-08-19 17:59:32Things I liked:deep pentration with massive shock to a 3/4 inch plywood. accuracy is superb. at 35 yards, 5 shots are printing .20 c.t.c to .35 c.t.c. Used my chronograph. average velocity 742.6 ft./scd. on 20 shots. high 747.4, low 736.2 (std.deveation 4.15 )11.5 grains generates about 14lbs. of energy.
Things I would have changed:not one thing!!!!!!!!! after achieving these results, i ordered 12 tins.
What others should know:used my beeman ss1000h. Great rifle for the money. as a matter of fact, ranks right up there with rifles in the $500 -$650 range. Choice of pellets is critical. 10 beeman ss1000h will produce different results. Some will like one kind of pellet over another. ss1000h is rated at 1000ft/scd. on a 7.1 grain pellet. silver arrow is 11.5grains which hits really hard when using magnum rifles. However velocity drops to about 742 or so. so what!

Re: "What's great about both views is that Flickr respects the original crops of the photos and doesn't force them into square thumbnails."
Wow. You just nailed the thing I despised most about Instagram, and why I never used it. Square photos, unless they're on 6x6cm film, just seem unnatural and snapshot-ish. Like Polaroids used to be.

I have rented numerous storage units over the years at various companies. I currently am renting multiple units at this location and could not be more pleased. Mark and his staff have gone beyond my expectations and I am very satisfied with the service I have and am receiving at this location. Mark is very personable, organized, informed and diligent when dealing with my concerns. The facility is one of the cleanest, organized and well managed storage locations I have ever seen. I would highly recommend this location to friends and family and look forward to years as a satisfied consumer. Thank you for giving me my money's worth.Jamie from Coconut Creek, FL

There was a female associate, I believe her name was Alicia, she provided me with the absolute best service. I was having a tough week, and she really made it better. Also, I was so impressed by how they recognized and handled my move out automatically. By the time I made it back to Uncle Bob's to close out the account, it was already taken care of. I've worked with Public Storage and other facilities, but as far as customer service goes, this was by far my best experience. Give those people raises!Michael from Ft Lauderdale, FL

I completely forgot her name but i believe she is the office manager. She is awesome. She always helps me out when i call. She never rushes me and answers my questions. What I noticed and liked the most is that whenever she tells me she can't do something for me- she always follows up with what she can do. THAT is great customer service. I wish I could remember her name!Sonia from Pembroke Pines, FL

Your staff at this location is attentive, made us feel secure about storing with you, and was patient with all the questions we had. I have not stored anywhere before, yet I felt like my items were as safe as if they were at home with ME. We are very happy we chose Uncle Bob's and this particular location. Thank you!Sonia from Fort Lauderdale, FL

Mark was a really nice gentleman. I've never used self storage before, and he and the extremely nice facility gave me comfort in knowing I made the right choice.Raymond from New Hope, PA

Even though I had a rough day and me and my girlfriend were not in the best mood because moving is a hassle, The assistant manager I think she was (forgot her name) was extremely helpful and patient with us. She explained everything in detail and had a great down to earth attitude that made my visit very pleasant.Jonathan from Coral Springs, FL

I would like to mention the reason this facility is top notch is due to your Manager. He is Friendly, Helpful, Courteous and goes out of his way to tend to the Customers. That's why I will recommend this facility for Uncle Bob's.John from Coral Gables, FL

We had a great experience and plan on coming back to Uncle Bob's next time we have storage needs. Everything was always well maintained, there were sufficient carts whenever we needed to move things in and out, and our storage area was great. Thank You!Laura from Walla Walla, WA

It is true that the South Miami facility is state of the art, but as I am sure you know, it's the people that truly make it special. Mario and his staff are not just good, they are exceptional. They are friendly, knowledgable, patient, and quite handy. I rarely single out a staff, but in this case they are worthy of many praises.Daniel from Miami, FL
