Check out ThinkHaus designs here. Oh, and they’re on Twitter, too: @thinkhaus.
Are you on Twitter? Do you even know what I’m talking about? Well, if you are, then you should join my “Twibe.” What’s a twibe? Well, according to the Twibes “HELP” page:
A twibe is a group of Twitter users interested in a common topic who would like to be able to communicate with each other. On each twibe’s page, there is a list of twibe members. There is also a tweet stream that lists tweets from twibe members which contain key word tags. Tags are set by the twibe founder and are listed just above the tweet stream. You can browse through twibes that have already been created by going to www.twibes.com/twitter-groups.
So, being the natural joiner and go-getter that I am, I decided to create a few Twibes… since these in particular were not already in existence.

The “Improv” Twibe: http://www.twibes.com/group/improv
I have to admit, I chuckle to myself a little bit every time I say the word “Twibe.” Simply because it sounds like a 7-year-old-girl with her 2 front teeth missing asking a question about an Indian reservation or the College of William & Mary.
So many new clients! So much excitement. So much awesome.
So much.
Britain’s Got Talent has been figuratively dishing the talent out lately. First, Susan Boyle, then Shaheen Jafargholi, now there’s DJ Talent. You’d think he’d be able to live up to his name: DJ Talent. Oh, and he does. DJ Talent spits rhymes? and one of the “catchiest” tunes I’ve heard in a long while.
The lyrics are as follows:
As we roll! It’s Britain’s Got Talent. It’s DJ Talent
It’s Britain’s Got Talent MAKE SOME NOISE!I say Britain, you say TALENT, Britain’s Got Talent, It’s the DJ Talent
I say Britain, you say TALENT, Britain’s Got Talent, It’s the DJ Talent
They got north, south, east, and west. I’ve been roll’n with this, DJ Talent roll out the mix!
I say Britain, you say TALENT, Britain’s Got Talent, It’s the DJ Talent
I say Britain, you say TALENT, Britain’s Got Talent, It’s the DJ Talent!
Man, if that doesn’t land this guy a spot on the Billboard charts, I don’t know what will. After receiving 4 X’s by the judges, immediately followed by 4 “Yes’s” [I haven't seem anyone flip-flop that much since Anne Heche and her sexuality of the late 1990's] – DJ Talent scores again by winning a date with guest judge Kelly Brooke. He even offers to take her to dinner, get her a nice salad and a bit o’ chicken.
I also LOVE his teeth. Who wouldn’t?
If Susan Boyle is the next Elaine Paige, then DJ Talent will have “No Problem”** becoming the next Lil Scrappy.
All for now.
**For those of you who don’t know, “No Problem” is a song by rap artist Lil Scrappy that was released in February of 2004. It’s a pun.
