nuzart

There’s a lot of artistic talent out there, but without the right exposure, you may never know about it. For art lovers, the only art that they usually know about is the art that they see, but just imagine how many budding artists are sitting at home and creating works of art that others may never see because they don’t know how to get them in front of the public. The Internet has certainly helped to give exposure to more talent, but it has to be used in the right way. Whether you’re looking to buy art or sell your own, nuzart has options for you.

For buyers, acquiring something new to hang on the wall is as simple as finding the image you like, selecting the size and printing material, and making the purchase. This approach works well for artists because nuzart handles the printing and customization, which means that all they have to do is upload their art, set the price, and tell others where it can be found. Additionally, you may not be an artist, but you can still upload images and get them printed through the service, so it’s a win-win.

Listorious

Brandon Watts — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 19:50:26 +0000

Things have gotten to a point with Twitter where if they change one word on their Web site, the media will endlessly debate what this means for the company and what could happen because of it. Honestly, they get so much coverage that keeping up with all of it must be exhausting for them, but then again, it’s not a bad problem to have. While many people engage in somewhat pointless debates about Twitter, there are developments worth talking about. For example, the recent addition of lists has been helpful because they enable a way for users to create specific and categorized lists of users that can be followed by others. A site called Listorious is already on the scene to serve as a directory of Twitter lists.

Finding users on Twitter hasn’t always been easy, but these lists that are powered by other users are going to save a lot of time and make Twitter even more influential. Whether you’re new to Twitter or have been using the tool for a long time, Listorious brings accounts worth following to your attention based on categories that you’re interested in. Be sure to add your lists to the directory to make it more complete. So, who has you on their lists?

Geekily We Socialize Along

Chris Pirillo — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 19:44:30 +0000

eGreetings!

My mouth hit the floor when I read the thread title: What are the Drawbacks to Being a Geek? earlier on Geeks. A drawback to being a geek - what?! Are you kidding me? Being a geek is the best possible thing to be. We have it all — brains, looks, girls… what more could we want? The looks, well, just because they are funny looks at times means nothing. It’s just part of the total package that makes us so amazingly perfect, right? And the girls — ahhh, the girls — we all know that geek boys get all the girls, right? Wait, what? You have trouble finding a girlfriend? Well, perhaps if you showered more often, and stopped being so nervous around the fairer sex. Fine. The looks and the girls may be lacking. But we have the brains! And the brains get us the money! And the money gets us more geeky gadgets! Who needs girls, anyway?

Okay, time to get serious here, my fellow geeks. Do you actually feel there are drawbacks to being a geek? I’m interested in hearing your answers. For me, life is good when you’re a geek. I’m comfortable with who, what, and how I am… and I wouldn’t have it any other way. But I know that not everyone would agree, so let’s have it.

VMware and Parallels for Virtual Machines

chris@lockergnome.com (Chris Pirillo) — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 06:30:00 GMT

It doesn't matter if you're running on Windows or Mac OS X - every power user needs either Parallels or VMware (or both). There's never been an easier way to test software without destroying your primary operating system's stability. Think of how many times you wish you could press a 'reverse' button on your computer. Plus, there's no easier way to try new Linux distributions - see what all the fuss is about. Run Windows in OS X, run Linux in Windows, but the best way to do either is with VMware and/or Parallels.
