Laura | June 18th, 2010With summer finally here I have one thing and one thing only on my mind… vacation. So, naturally, when I saw a project titled “LasVegasHotels.com New Logo” I was drawn to it. I can hear the slot machines calling my name… Okay, back to reality, sorry! I was intrigued to find a well-established website for [...]

Laura | May 28th, 2010It’s the age-old toughest decision: what do you get someone when they’re struggling with a hardship or an uncertain time whether it be a death in the family, losing a job, getting deployed or returning home from the military, or even moving to a new place where they don’t know someone?

Small Business Spotlight of the Week: “Graduate to LinkedIn”
Laura | March 26th, 2010College graduates graduate into the real world and most of the time the business world so it’s only natural that they learn how to effectively graduate from Facebook to LinkedIn.

Small Business Spotlight of the Week: Afritee.org
Laura | March 19th, 2010There are so many great organizations out there helping third world countries but I’ve always thought the best thing we can do for third world countries is to help give them the means to educate.
