And the Winner Is…




A couple of weeks back I ran a “mini contest”, if you like, to celebrate this blog’s first full year. The gist was as follows – up for grabs was the Headway premium WordPress theme (used on this very blog) as well as a copy of Trust Agents and Six Pixels of Separation. All you needed to do to “win” was tell me why you wanted Headway.

Well, the votes are in – as in, I’ve made my mind up – and my favourite reason (and the one that wins the Headway theme) is this one:

As someone who changed from Thesis to Headway for the very reasons Charlotte mentions, I feel her “pain”. And the use of “shitty first draft” just seals the deal – anyone designing a new blog or site knows that feeling all too well!

So, congratulations to Charlotte – I’ll be contacting you soon with the details.

For the books, I’ve added a couple more – two copies of Gary Vaynerchuk’s Crush It! (review coming soon). So, without further ado…

Thanks again, guys, for helping to make this blog so enjoyable to write, and I’ll be in touch soon for shipping details. Cheers!

Note: This blog no longer runs on the Headway framework. Instead, it’s a custom WordPress design by Lisa Kalandjian of SceneStealer Graphics.
