It might actually make waiting for the bus enjoyable! Who knows…

Anyone see one yet?

February 23rd is the final day to save this beloved Aussie icon.  Louie has accumulated just about 213,000 Facebook fans since the campaign commenced in September of 2011 and Mortein states Louie will need 250,000 votes to keep him alive!

Can we do it Australia?

(Gentlemen, start your planning)

eHarmony has this brand new love letter campaign in which the sender types out a note to someone they have their eyes on and eHarmony will send the text to calligraphers who will write out the letter and send it to the recipient. All you have to do it “like” their Facebook page.

 

Strange and creepy or cute and thoughtful… you decide.

Hmm… The NIT has stated their source was from a person in a governmental position.  Just about 200 protestors ambushed a restaurant where Gillard and Abbott were on Australia Day and both were immediately rushed out. Crazy!

Prezi is a relatively new way to present information and the most fun.  This free online program is so refreshing and easy to use, it leaves powerpoint in the dust. Instead of going from slide to slide, this program has a flow movement which makes the presentation much more visually appealing. It does everything Powerpoint can and much more. It takes a little time and a little patience to learn but once you have it down you’ll never go back.

Weather you use them for email, blogging, photos or whatever, they are one of the most convenient pieces of technology today!  Apple of course has had a ton of hype on the iPad and iPad 2 but there are definitely others out there that can give Apple a run for the money. Which kind of tablet do you carry around?

 

Who knows what they will come up with next…
