New graphics for your blog(s): August calendar & cellphone wallpapers
August 2009 wallpaper/calendar
Hi guys, this month I've designed another new wallpaper/calendar that you can use or give away on your blogs and websites.
Feel free to add your own text i.e. (compliments of... your name). You can see and/or download the full size version here And before yous ask, yes you can use this on commercial blogs and websites. ;-)
And...
If you'd like a little something extra to give out to your blog readers, I've turned this month's calendar into 2 wallpapers for the BlackBerry Storm and the iPhone
Since space is very limited on cellphone wallpapers, my advice would be not to add any text but again, that is up to you. Feel free to add your own text if you'd like.
The whole point of giving away this kind of stuff isn't to plaster your name everywhere... but to give people a reaosn to interact with you and to keep coming back to your blog for fun, free stuff.
To get the full sized copy of the BlackBerry and iPhone wallpapers, just sent a note to my biz partner Giselle at GiselleStCyr@garaughty.com Again, you have my blessing to use these anywhere you like, including on commercial blogs and websites.
On that note, I have to get back to work so have a great weekend and I'll be back soon with some very cool news and more goodies for you. Later...
Finding all the cool, useful stuff on the web can be a major pain. To save you some time, here are some of my favorite resources & reads from the past few days.

The law of the little shovel by Seth Godin
Call on one person ten times and you might make the sale. Call on ten people once each and you will likely get ten rejections. The important thing to remember is that separate events are often separate. If you use the same ineffective approach on one thousand people, it's not going to start working better just because you use it more often. read..._________________________

Quid Pro No by Chris Brogan
The basic premise of quid pro quo is that people attempt fair/equal transactions. This makes perfect sense when the exchange is obvious: I’ll give you $1.00 for that soda pop.Here’s where this gets tricky: If I invite you to join the Facebook group for Trust Agents, it’s because I think you’ll get some value out of participating there. Say you join the group. If you now invite me to join your real estate company’s fan page after you’ve joined my book’s group, what should I do? read...
