Foldees
Remember GarfieldChak… Well, he left a giant company last year to venture out and start Foldees with his friends.
You know how Threadless works?
Where you can submit designs and best ones win prizes and get made into actual products for sale on the site?
If you don’t know then… damn.
Damn out la you. (Also read: Joyce is lazy to explain)
Foldees works the same way, except it’s with greeting card designs.
They also have a service where they send out cards for you.
Cos admittedly, it’s nice receiving physical cards… but a real bitch sending them out by post ourselves.
So now Foldees can be your bitch to send them out for you.
Anyhoo, they’re having a contest just for Christmas (damn, coming so soon..! Christmas, i mean :p)
Top 10 rated card design winners get to CHOOSE what they want to win, which sounds pretty awesome to me.
- Belkin Messenger Bag (15.4″)
- iPod Classic 80 GB
- iPod Touch 8 GB
- iPod Nano 8 GB
- LG 22″ WideScreen LCD Monitor
- WACOM Bamboo Fun Tablet (6×9)
- Canon MPC145 All-in-One Printer
- Apple Wired Keyboard & Mighty Mouse
- Western Digital 320 GB MyBook
- Flash Drive 8 GB
As if a nifty gadget ain’t enough, top 3 designs get cash in USD too.

Canon Goes Green
Canon has taken a pledge that, for every picture of the environment/natural surroundings submitted, a tree will be planted in Padang Kota Damansara, a reserve area in Klang Valley this Sunday 19th October 2008.
An aim of up to 2,500 trees are to be planted, and they’ve received enough pictures already.
I think it’s a beautiful project… have a surf through their website to view the entries or get info on how to attend the tree-planting this Sunday.
I was halfway blogging about this and was searching up a picture in my pc to send when i read that they’ve got enough entries already.
Shite. I shoulda read the email sooner.
Still, a very pretty project and it’s so refreshing to see so many pictures of nature (which i adore!)

Loveeee the Threadless t-shirts and concept hence got really interested (in winning the USD cashtos) so I rushed and clicked the Foldees site but kenot join lah, I am not Illustrator savvy! Tsk tskk.. Microsoft Paint boleh lah..
Thanks for letting us know anyways!
Wah… looks like you went on a blogging marathon wei…

And yes, I’m getting so good at this pretending to work thing that it almost feels like “working”.
i was about to say the same thing as chak.
you really are a blogaholic!
ninie: maybe you can use photographs and photoshop… anna can help you 😀
chak: yeah la, you threaten friendship all :p heh
lisha: … >.<
Tsk… I deny threatening the friendship!
All i said was that it would be “awkward” 🙂
