Month: November 2014

  • Movember

    It’s the best time of year again, when all the clean-shaven, baby-faced boys start growing out their glorious ‘taches in support of charity. Mr Snook got started a day late due to Halloween, but he’s already at the “scruffy lookin’ nerf herder” phase. If you’d like to donate, his Movember page is here.

    Fabric nerds: looking for a print that involves either hexagons or cones. (Not ice cream or pine cones; like the geometric shape.) Ideas?


    And yes, Spoonflower has stuff but I can’t get it in time for when I need it. Hoping for something in Australia.


    Wow, Harry Potter dressed as Boba Fett for Halloween! Sweet. http://t.co/Aes6krUUce


    I really needed that. (@ Massage Link Health Centre in Ultimo, NSW) https://t.co/WFL88psXdL


    @redambition I tweeted that I already know them but need something faster than that!


    @redambition Yep. I spent several hours looking. It’s cool – I think I have an idea. 🙂


    @redambition Just a thing for a Christmas party. Semi-secret. 🙂


    @Gin_ev_ra @pixel8ted Thanks for the offer. I’ve had some ideas for alternatives though. All good. 🙂


    @RoseRed_Shoes Thanks! I’m aiming for a full garment though. I can see the name of the collection there though, so that’s useful!


    @yow_oz @pyko I sure am! I’ve got a couple different ideas though. Are we only able to enter once, or is it okay to submit a few?

    The 9jumpin responsive website that my team built is now one year old! So the amazing Annie Lo baked us an insanely cool cake to celebrate. It was a full-size pink 9Jumpin typewriter with a piece of paper onto which she PROJECTED the website. (“The site’s so responsive, it even works on a typewriter!”) Seriously, she’s a wizard.

    Thanks to everyone who worked on the site last year: Alan Burton, Belinda Pullicino, Bruno Guedes, Chrissie, Ed Harvey, Eric, Haruki Takechi, James Prendergast-Sceats, John Hogan, Lawrence Lomax, Luke, Linh Le, Matt Dismorr, Mickey, Mili, Pat, Roberto Amici, Sam Ghaderyan, Sarah Lawrence, Vance Bee – as well as those who have joined us since: Anbu, Andrew Mamo, Bec Lyons, Claire, Clarissa Meffan, Elad, Sakshi, Shireen Santos, Jason, and Josh Stevenson.

    Really confused by UI at @issuu. Anybody want to guess if this control means emails are ON or OFF? http://t.co/7AF1PKG8NA
