Buying Locally
February 24th, 2011. Published under Links/Internet. No Comments.
I’m excited to try Augusta Locally Grown tomorrow, for the first time. I love buying fresh and local and without Garden City Organics, I’ve not really tried to do this since.
A friend of mine wrote an interesting article in a recent edition of verge. If you are a local, do check it out. Maybe you will want to participate, too?

At Restaurant.com, you can buy gift certificates for use at restaurants for cheaper than face value… Ususally somewhere arounf $10 for a $25 certificate. Sarah and I have used the site several times…
Through March 31st there’s a coupon code that gives you an EXTRA 60% off… the code is “madness”
I just bought $75 worth of gift certificats for the Cotton Patch for $12 (the certificates are good for one year.)
Pass it on if you know anyone who might use it…
Lucky Oliver Stock Photography
March 19th, 2007. Published under Links/Internet. 1 Comment.
While at SXSW last week I met the team from and was introduced to a new site on the Stock Photography block.
Lucky Oliver is a community stock photo site similar to iStockPhoto.com. If you are a photographer you can submit photos that can earn you money the more they are downloaded and purchased. If you are a designer, you can browse their growing collection and purchase photographs for web or print use. Image prices depend on size and range from 1-5 dollars.
While I’m excited just to have another option, I asked what differentiated Lucky Oliver from iStockPhoto. Their plan is to be much more helpful to the photographers who make up their site. If a submitted image is rejected for any reason, they plan to not only tell why, but also offer suggestions on what the photographer can do next time to increase their chances of having the image accepted.
I’ve added LuckyOliver.com to my bookmarks/design toolbox and plan on using them soon. I’m even planning on trying my hand at submitting some images in the future.
If you’re interested in checking them out enter promo code “WES1″ at the bottom of this page to receive 3 free Lucky Oliver tokens (The code is good until 4/1/07): http://www.luckyoliver.com/promo
Marketing Survey Help

Sarah and I are helping some friends who are doing some market research for their new business and we’ve set up a 7 question survey that will help… It really should only take 1-2 minutes if you have the time. You can access the survey here:
