Family and friends I simple adore, an incredible job with the world’s coolest company, co-workers and clients, loads of great industry milestones and interactive developments on the horizon . . . all in all, it’s great.

I’m a huge fan of Vanity URLs. What’s better than the ability to create your own, easy-to-find web address that can direct people to your personal or business social networking profiles? I mean, Twitter is a great example. It doesn’t get much easier than typing in Twitter.com/”your name here”.
