Harding Park is the cream of the crop, but it's pretty expensive for non-SF residents. There's also the Presidio, but that's not terribly cheap either. Lincoln Park is a challenging layout, and reasonably priced (from what I remember).

I love Khoi Vinh's design of nytimes.com. Nice work on the CSS (but what's with the tables?) Must have been crazy project to work on.

but he will be the first to tell you he didnt do the re-design lol. it was actually done by a third party and we implemented it in house.

the site has a large number of templates and none of them are tabled. the home page was the only one done to ensure legacy users could still use the site. (you can check out the article template, search results most popular etc etc for full CSS) but yeah...i could deff tell you some stories haha we looked into tickets from NYC but too pricey now! have fun for sure!!

So I went and played the Lincoln Park GC in SF ($36). I got paired up with two soldiers that just came back from Iraq and were on vacation. They totally ruled and I had a blast.

The course is pretty hilly and has some amazing views. Specially hole 17 which has a view of the Golden Gate bridge. We had to blast some balls in the ocean ofcourse.



However, the course had a LOT of people walking/hiking on it, which was kind of weird (and scary, since I suck and didn't want to hit anyone).

Also, the Web conference was amazing. I'm in this pic, find me and win props from me!
