About Banane


Banane means banana in French and German. It means something crass in Turkish. It is the website for Anna Billstrom, mobile engineer, engineering manager and writer. It has been around since, well, a long time. Check out writing & mobile projects.

I’m raising a son in SF now and continuing my passions: local history, karaoke and pointless Internet arguments.

  1. Hi Anna, I just read your comment/gripe on our packaging issue and I’m rather surprised because our policy has always been that you are able to buy either one or as many flavours of your choice, or the standard assortment in one box. The only thing we wouldn’t do is separate the flavours in different boxes unless you’re buying each flavour in increments of 20’s.
    I hope you’ll visit us again but if you encounter this problem, please feel free to call me @ 510.339.9969.
    See you soon ~

  2. On the valleywag SF vs. SV video you left this comment: ‘ “twatter” – I like that. I want Portland in an ad.’

    I didn’t get the Portland reference?
