Since January 2005, Gridskipper has been dispatching sharp, amusing, and unpredictable insights from the best corners of the best cities of the world. Subtitled "the decadent urban travel guide," this collection of interviews, recommendations, maps, and attitude promises as much satisfaction for the Aeron chair traveler as the passport-packing tourist. Did we mention the maps? Gridskipper's edgy geographic guides leap from Chinese delivery in the City of Angels to "anti-minimalist" hotels in the City of Lights, and toss in a bit of German romance in between. Aw. Recently, we relished their charting of "The Lives of Others" locations in Berlin, their record of the best cheap massage parlors in San Francisco, and their atlas of the most delectable oysters in Manhattan. Delish. There's nothing too cheap, too posh, or too brazen for the masterminds behind this site. And for that, we owe them at least a dozen Royal Miyagis and a very dry Martini.
