One of the Best Words in the Language - Free
Two things are really getting me excited these days.
- Free Delivery from Iconbuffet. They make very cool icons, and are now giving some of their collection away. I have 4 of the collections so far, and will be happy to deliver them to you - just leave me a comment here.
I found Blingo at Airbag when he announced he just won an iPod. Just today, he announced that he won a Sony Playstation - FREE - simply by using Blingo as his search engine. It's viral, so clicking the blingo icon will take you to their registration screen where you will be registered with my referral key. That way, if you win, I win. I've found the search results are the same as Google, and the spam index is zero - three weeks and not a single spam from them. I haven't won anything yet, but I'm sure I will soon!
I also plan to follow 24 Ways to impress my friends during the month.
