A few good things...
I have come across a few cool things in the last few weeks and thought I would share them with you...
• Moo - a fantastic business card creator that links in with Flickr, costs £10 for 100 including postage, Jonny has got a sample pack and it has to be said that they look fab. Upon placing my order I forgot to put my email on - so I quickly emailed them to let me know. Within 10 minutes they had contacted me saying they could change it, which after another quick email they did. Good to see a new company that not only looks good and is easy to use but also looks after their customers!
• modul8 - after using Arkaos for VJing for several years, I really feel that this has the upper hand when it comes to creative mixing of stills and video. Its harder to use, but for me creates much better, more organic, results.
• Matt from home recommended the album tree - a really good electronica genre group - who sound great. We will be using one of their tunes in our next eucharist, so watch out for that. Home have also pruduced some of their own tunes which you can grab from Lulu.
• Both Addict and Howies have launched their latest Autumn ranges - both of which look great, and in Howies case, are pretty good towards the environment as well :-)
• Moot have published our first book (well nearly) - I showed off a copy of the rhythm of life book/journal at the community meeting last night. I think everyone was pretty struck by how easy it was to create a great product for so little money (about A5 size, 200 pages, £3.50!) Kudos to Lulu for being such a great website.
