This fashion site allows visitors to create their own collage using images of clothing, accessories, random photos and text (in a variety of fonts), then post online for others to view and comment on. I freely admit that I am a little behind since this site is not brand-spanking new, but hey, so is The New York Times. The commercial beauty of it is, visitors can link to the products shown to purchase, and retailers are starting to take notice. So if you are style-challenged, let someone else put together an ensemble for you. Or channel your inner little girl and play digital paper dolls.

Digital paper dolls
Tuesday, July 28th, 2009Fun science
Wednesday, July 8th, 2009Today is a special day, because at precisely the right moment, our arbitrary calendar system will do something quite rare. If you missed it in early in the AM, you still have a chance to catch the encore at 12:34 and 56 seconds PM.
For at that exact moment, the time and date will be 12:34:56 7/8/9.
That is to say, that at that exact moment in time, for the duration of 1 billion nanoseconds, the time and date will read 123456789.
CreateAthon is just around the corner
Thursday, July 2nd, 2009If you’re feeling kind of charitable, you’ll be happy that CreateAthon will be here faster than you can say, “Pour me another cuppa coffee, Crystal, I’m about to pull an all nighter.” CreateAthon is 24-hour creative blitz that offers marketing and creative services to local non-profit agencies that might not otherwise be able to afford them. So, for those of you with ties to a 501c3 company, make sure to visit our website and download an application. And spread the word to any non-profit organizations that you support.
And for our compadres that ask us every year, “what can we do to help?,” why you can dive right in by bringing things like caffeine, chocolate and marinated cheese (like Jen Day’s mom did last year!!). Other people have offered services such as neck massages and acupuncture to rejuvenate us, or car detailing so we can drive home from our long night in clean cars, or a midnight calisthenics class to keep our energy up. Our professional friends help out with copywriting, design, photography, printing and technical support.
There are many ways to help with CreateAthon – from picking up an item from our “must-have” list we’ll post a week prior to the big blitz, to helping us clean up after the clients all leave on that Friday when we’re too weary to think straight. Even if it’s to just check out our blog during the middle of the night to say, “Pour them another cuppa coffee, Crystal, they look like they could really use it.”
