Here at the blog, we always love getting feedback and emails from our readers on how to improve the site. Dave Burrows wrote into us the other day and suggested that we use the “My Maps” feature of Google Maps to plot out all the antique shops we’ve written about for easy access for those who want to visit. Great idea Dave – it’s something we will definitely implement before the end of the year, so watch for it.

Speaking of the end of the year, I can’t believe it’s almost Christmas. Have you done your Christmas shopping?

I won’t be posting that much over the next two weeks as I’m leaving tomorrow for Asia. I’ll be hitting up Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hong Kong and Taipei. It’s a girl’s trip and I’m very excited. I’ll definitely be on the lookout for cool vintage stuff – I’m especially hoping to find some vintage ephemera and will report back when I return. While I’m away, Ryan will keep you all company.

Tah for now.
