Fair enough. I guess I mostly just wanted the maps. I got lost easily and nothing marks you as a tourist quicker than holding a map. Except maybe holding a smart phone??? Anyway, I'm not even in BA right now. But next time I'm there I'll check it out.

Hey just saw this on the App Store. It looks like a pretty cool way to navigate the city with your iPhone. It's got maps to the major monuments and a lot of restaurants. Looks like the price just dropped today from $5.99 to $0.99. So for that price, I might just go ahead and give it a shot...

Yeah looks good. Want to post more info?

A few of us got together last weekend to check out clubs and bars in Palermo. This week, we're thinking of meeting for dinner first and then drinks. Everyone is welcome to join us. Still thinking about the restaurant. Anyone have any suggestions?

Glad he found a home. But that's an image I could have lived without. I'm crossing my legs for the rest of the evening.

Hi, I've just arrived in the Palermo area (actually Palermo Soho). I'm working from my apartment during the day so I'd really like to get out and meet some people after work, for dining or drinking. Age, gender, nationality not important. If interested, please let me know. Would love to meet...

Thanks Neil. Staying in Palermo Soho at the moment. What about you?

Hi everyone, just wanted to introduce myself. I just got to BA on Saturday (I'm originally from NY) and plan on staying for a month, at least at first. I'm self-employeed so I'm trying the whole working-while-traveling thing. I've always been fascinated by Buenos Aires so I'm glad I finally...
