And the winner is… (vote now)

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

Hi Flutherites!
Andrew and I never got the chance to give you all the nitty-gritty from our trip to SXSW and that crazy award night. Our spirits were high; the tension was higher. The MC called out the nominees, and as I heard him say “Fluther,” those words kept going through my head: it’s just an […]

Vote early and often. Really.

Dear Jelly,
We need your help. Fluther has a chance to to win the People’s Choice Award at SXSW. Whoever get the most votes, wins. Anyone can vote, one vote per day.
That means if you all vote right now, and then tomorrow, and the day after, until March 6th, you can make Fluther win, and all […]

Lurve from SXSW

An Amazon search box:

When you’re […]

Well, today I learned that I’m finally featured in the Apple ad:

Now I’ll forever be “working out”.
And lest we think this is only about me, check out our very own richardhenry’s NSFW site, cursebird. A brilliant idea, if you ask me.

Can’t get you out of my WebMynd.

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

WebMynd is a cool new Firefox plugin which lets you customize your Google searches and also store a visual history of pages you’ve visited. It’s pretty slick.
We’re really excited because they’ve added a Fluther integration module, which we think will make searching Fluther a snap:

Cool, right? Try it out and let us know what you […]
