Well I was browsing the web late at night a few days ago and I came across the link to a site called Moo and they specialize in printing many things.  Apparently the quality of their printing is respectable as well.  I really thought this was a unique and interesting opportunity to grab myself some business cards from them!

Moo MiniCards

Moo offers this special/unique business card style, called MiniCards.  As the name suggests, these are not your regular business cards, the dimension of the MiniCards is 28mm x 70mm.  Designing the card is fairly straight forward and effortless.  You can upload photos and this acts as the front side of your business card.  Then the online interface guides you and allows you to add simple text to the back of the card.  Then your cards are ready for print and order!

The unique dimension and simplicity of the cards really drove me to order a set of these.  So I put in an order for 100 MiniCards as well as a black Moo’s MiniCard holder which is an extra accessory allowing you to conveniently have a set of your MiniCards in your pocket at all times.

The order came out to $24.98 + $7.98 for regular shipping.  Not bad in my opinion for a pack of these.  Now I’m anxiously awaiting to see how the quality of these cards are.  If they turn out well, Moo will definantely be getting more of my business and referrals.

Stay tuned for the review of my Moo MiniCards when they come in.

I recently wanted to add an icon at the top of this blog to allow people to join my community on MyBlogLog.

MyBlogLog is a social network for the blogger community that is based in part on interactions facilitated by a popular web widget that many members install on their blog.

When I first started off this blog I found MyBlogLog to be a valuable site as it gave me instant connection with my readers.  So I thought it be fitting to continue using the service.  The problem was I couldn’t find a good copy of the logo to fit into my design, so I decided to create it myself.  The logo is very simple as MyBlogLog’s logo is essentially styled text.

Yup, trying this gig again. Let’s see how it turns out. Hopefully better than the last two times now that I have a bit more time.

I’m hoping to focus more on my passions of technology and web rather than money like before which obviously failed.

I recently attended a conference and one of the speakers mentioned the success of his site derived from his mantra of “heart, mind, wallet”. The idea being, he built the site based on the passion of his heart and of his mind; rather than the wallet. With that being said, I’ve always needed a place to lay down my technical ramblings as I deal with technology everyday.

I hope this can continue to be a standing ground for my passion of the technology and web. Stay tuned :)
