Mobile Edge for the Mobile Professional

When I bought my wife her laptop I wanted to make sure she had a good bag to go with it. I wanted a bag that gave her plenty of room for cords and accessories, while remaining stylish as well.
It’s too bad at that point I hadn’t heard of Mobile Edge.
They have bags and […]

Need to Write? Get a Pilot

So I’m searching for the type of pen I use because Leo Laporte himself asked me for my opinion. I did a quick search and uncovered the Pilot Pen website.
I was immediately struck by the aesthetic design of their website. That’s just a cool image right there don’t you think? It’s the “Pilot Pen […]

Uncover the Internet Wish List

We all know the Internet is an amazing world of information and media nowadays. I was just reminded of it quickly this morning when there was a song on the radio and we couldn’t remember who the other people singing were in this little trio.
A quick Google search with the name of the song and […]

Hang-Ups Unlimited

A little bit of a different website that we’ve uncovered today. But Hang-Ups Unlimited is the type of website you don’t even realize you need until you come across it and realize everything they have to offer.
Our office has a drop-ceiling (like millions of other offices, schools, churches) and sometimes it can be a […]

New Pontiac G8 Spy Hunter Commercial

Perhaps one of the best commercials I’ve seen this year come through yesterday as we were watching March Madness.
What a great translation from pop-culture to real-life advertisement. I’m sure it immediately connects to their target audience of consumers that might be looking for a car like this.
I can’t believe an ad like this hasn’t […]

BookRenter.com - College Text Books for Rent

Where was BookRenter.com when I was in college? I was always frustrated by the cost of college text books that I rarely ended up buying them after the first couple of semesters. There were a couple you had to have, but after you buy that brand new Zoology book for $100+ and they decide […]

Bag, Borrow or Steal

My wife uncovered the Bag, Borrow or Steal website for me. Well, not actually for me because I just don’t understand why women would do something like this. I don’t think most men would get this.
The Bag, Borrow or Steal site basically let’s women “borrow” very expensive, designer pursues for a set fee based […]

Brownbook - Local Business Directory Wiki

I found out about the Brownbook site because someone named Ben emailed me about it.
Think Wikipedia, but for a business directory format. The Brownbook tagline is “the open yellow pages”. That tells me exactly what the purpose of the site is and I think it’s one of those things that just makes sense. […]

How Well Do You Know Your Brands

Here’s a quick online quiz from CramerSweeney.
The quiz consists of 20 questions across 4 different areas of marketing and branding recognition.
I think there may be a little glitch with the quiz though because I don’t think I missed any but it said I only got 19 out of the 20.
See if you get […]
