iphone 5 cases

If we’re friends on Facebook, then you saw that I just got a new phone [whoo hoo! :] Now, I’m on the hunt for a case that won’t cover up the lovely gold. Here’s what I narrowed it down to. A bumper, a clear case with hand painted flowers, a bumper with clear back and a mock case by the same company that my last case came from.

Do you have any other contenders I should add to my list?

apps + case suggestions?

i finally joined all the cool kids and got an iphone. so, i thought i’d turn to you, lovely readers, to gather your suggestions for apps + iphone cases. i’ve already gotten a zagg shield [my husband loves his], but i also really need some sort of protective case. one that’s discreet and not too cumbersome. any ideas? do you have one you love?

stat tracking on etsy

Maybe this is old news, but we just found out you can track the stats and traffic of your Etsy shop using Google Analytics. We just signed up for it for our shop, and it was really easy. If you’ve got an Etsy account, login and click “Web Analytics” under “Shop Setup” and follow the directions. It’s easy + free, and in 24 hours you’ll be able to view stats for your Etsy shop including site visits, page views and referrals. Yipee + hooray!! This just about made my day!

at your fingertips

Kacey’s brother introduced us to Ted a year or so ago. Ted stands for technology, entertainment, design. It started out in 1984 as an annual conference held in Monterey. At the conference, the world’s most fascinating and inspiring thinkers and doers come together to give an 18 minute talk. Ted showcases nearly 200 of these talks and performances. New ones are added each week, and you can watch them for free.

Thanks to Design Mom, this Ted video completely blew my mind yesterday.
