Somewhere over France, I think.
Whoa, this is neat. I am actually on my Lufthansa flight from Munich to NY/JFK. They have wifi in their plane with download/upload speeds of 90/40kbps. Not too bad!

I heard from buddy Nick that the airline is losing money because of the service. I'll tell you why ... there is no electrical supply to power my laptop, so they can only charge me for as long as my battery lasts. It's a 9-hour flight -- that's a lot of billing time they're missing out on.

I only have 20 minutes left because I spent most of the battery watching Casablanca while waiting to take off. Who knew that was such a good movie?!

Lufthansa is the best. The flight attendants came by every 5 minutes offering red wine, white wine, or liquor. I was definitely drunk on the way to Frankfurt.

Hi, I'm Zach. I grew up in Fort Wayne, Indiana and graduated from Wake Forest. After college, I moved to Manhattan to get serious about a company I ran with friends. We sold it to Barry Diller's InterActiveCorp in 2006. I just wrapped up with a project I co-founded called Vimeo and left CV to focus on being a twenty-five year old.

I have another blog called Copy and Taste, where I post about learning to cook.

I live in Brooklyn now.
