I was browsing my computer when I saw these two artworks that I copied online.

I’ve been meaning to design something cool for a t-shirt before and thought pop art would do just fine. I had trouble finding a printing company though, thanks to outdated shops here in Manila. But that was before. Now, it’s so much easy to print your designs on t-shirts or customize clothing with the help of the Internet.

CustomInk.com is a great site if you need to see your designs on shirts, mugs, baseball caps, pens and bags. I’ve just tried my design and it really looked good on a tight fitting women’s t-shirt. If you don’t have a design, you can select from over 10,000 images that are available from their built-in t-shirt design interface. Add text, modify fonts and colors to your liking and you’re all set. You can also use their service to design team uniforms which can either be used on sports or company activities. The selection of T-shirts is not limited. You can go for various kinds of customized apparels - short or long sleeves, casual polos, tank tops, jerseys or even printed fabrics. Aside from the usual shirts and caps, your designs or company logo can also be printed on mouse pads, stuffed toys, frisbees, umbrellas and many more. Whether you’re trying to show team spirit or want to market your product, CustomInk.com will help you get your message get across. If you find yourself stuck, just browse through the design ideas category and you will surely find one that you will like.

Symbianize Your Phone

Let me share with you this website that I found while searching for a way to maximize my phone’s (Nokia E65) features. The site is Symbianize.com, a local portal (yes, it’s a Filipino forum!) that lets people share tips and apps for the most popular cellphone brands out there - Motorola, Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, etc. They have a Hardware Zone that talks about network operators, specific phone features, a separate thread for Pocket PC and Palm, and accessories. Another main category is the Mobile Software Zone, which is where you can always find me. This section has everything that you need, from S40 to S60 to s80 apps, s60 3rd edition apps, PPC and Palm apps, N-gage games, skins and fonts and themes. Before I visited the forum, I had no idea what the heck is S40 but after a couple of minutes browsing, I was enlightened. The forum is absolutely awesome, I tell you. You can download ebooks and audio books, graphics, tones and audios, clips and videos, even full movies and TV series. I guess I feel this way because I found all my favorite ebooks from this site. I haven’t explored the TV series section yet because I’m not really sure if my cellphone can handle it.

If you’re a cellphone freak, visit this site. I’m 110% sure (if that’s even possible) that you will have the time of your life downloading games, tunes and apps for hours and hours.

Surprise your loved ones with flowers

Filed under: anything under the sun, cool finds — Wrote by admin on Friday, March 21st, 2008 @ 12:55 am

The Internet is really a big, magical world. Before, to surprise your wife or girlfriend, you will have to walk a few blocks from your house, talk to a florist so she can help you choose the right flower arrangement, write a note while paying for the flowers with cash or credit card so they can deliver the flowers to the recipient. Not too bad I know. But let’s say you’re in the middle of a very important meeting or in a conference out of town, I find it too impersonal to call a shop and have them deliver flowers to your loved one without even seeing how it will look like.

Thanks to the wonders of Internet, you can still send flowers and choose them yourself in a matter of few clicks. Want lilies and daffodils? How about roses? You can choose what you want and see the final arrangement with your own eyes by simply accessing an online floral shop. It’s fast, it’s easy and you can be assured that whomever you send it to, will appreciate the gesture.

Twitty Twitter

This is how outdated I am.

I used to see updates on the sidebar of my friends’ blogs and always wondered how they do that. Of course, it’s nothing that a few clicks can solve but I was very busy (as always) that I didn’t have enough time to spare a few clicks. After two months, I’m happy to announce that I am now a Twitter. I just finished the registration and will be installing the widget on all my blogs. This way, my friends and not so friends will see what I’m up to even if I’m not blogging.

twitter.gifTwitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing? Bloggers can use it as a mini-blogging tool. Developers can use the API to make Twitter tools of their own. Possibilities are endless!

Try it out. It’s cool, it’s fun. It’s the best way to blog if you have a busy day but still want to keep your friends updated. I, for one, will take advantage of this tool.

Your Blog’s Worth

Check out what I found from a yahoogroup today. It’s a tool, created by Dane Carlson of business-opportunities.biz that calculates the worth of your blog. You may want to check it out here.


My blog is worth $7,339.02.
How much is your blog worth?

My I AM DZOI blog is worth $273,000, can you imagine that? This one, even though it’s fairly new is worth $7,339.02 already. If this is true, I may be close to my dream of getting rich through blogs LOL.

So how much is yours?

Intense!

I don’t think I am like this. Very surprising huh? I love to think that my life is always an open book, but apparently, not.

Try it out yourself.


You Are Disturbingly Profound


You’re contemplative, thoughtful, and very intense.
Taking time to figure out the meaning of life is a priority for you.
Because you’re so introspective, you often react in ways that surprise people.
No one can really understand how you are on the inside… and that disturbs them.

Facebook?

welcome_3.gifEverytime I see / talk to an old friend, colleague or even someone I used to know from high school, the topic about me not having a facebook always comes up. The answer is always the same, WTH is Facebook? The last social networking site I’ve visited was Friendster and that was like what, 6 months ago? After being asked for the Nth time, I’ve decided to check it out. No, I’m not a member yet but it’s definitely worth something looking into. Why? One, 3 out of 5 great webdesigners I know have a Facebook account. Two, and this is the most important reason, a prospect for a website upgrade project asked about my Facebook account so he can look at what I have to offer. Now, isn’t having a portfolio enough? I guess not. Putting up your own website is one way of making yourself visible but if you’re serious in selling your services, you have to be seen everywhere.
