I saw this go by a few days ago and I had to share it: credit and thanks to Michael Ellsberg for posting it originally.
A few updates to the December Giveaway post: all of the slots for Saturday are filled up (they filled up within a couple of hours!) but there are a couple spots left for the rest of December for anyone looking for a booster shot to take you into the New Year. Sign up for a brainstorming session (1 hour) here. And thanks to Ian for the suggestions on what to call the “sale” (I dislike the term Cyber Monday and I also dislike the word “sale.” But I digress…)–keep ‘em coming!

Also, I agree with you on the Cyber Monday bit. Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday… It’s like a mini consumerist Holy Week.
