August bag
Everyone in the US and most of international should have received their bags by now, so I can post this now without feeling like such a spoiler. This month our featured shirt is the beloved social aggregator, FriendFeed. We also cleared out some old stickers from at least Answers.com, Book Glutton, and my good friends at Twiddla….but we’ve also got new goodies from handy tip site tips.net, people locator peekyou.com, and music discovery platform ourstage.com. This will be the last month of sticker repeats, promise. I’ve got a whole slew of awesomeness in store for next month…it’s our 1 year anniversary!
Need to see the schwag to believe it? Here’s this month’s bag in 12 seconds:

I’m already starting to hear feedback that people aren’t so fond of the heather gray friendfeed shirt. We’re trying to vary things up a bit so that not every shirt is black, but we’ve definitely had a couple of misses (obviously, nobody shares my love for Nikon yellow). What is your preference, or at least the colors you definitely don’t want to see?
New site
Just in case you hadn’t noticed, we’re sporting a spiffy new Wordpress theme. We’ve wanted to update our look for a while now, and thankfully we were able to pull our good buddy Christopher Price away from Tumblr hacking long enough to create a fabulous new design. This is a super important step, as you’ll see below…
New features
Not only do we have a new look, we’re also using this new canvas to integrate some new features. We love our long-time subscribers dearly, but for those of you who missed one of your favorite shirts, you can now order select items in our a la carte shop. The selection is still a bit limited for now, but we’ll be doing some reprints and expanding with new shirts over the next few months. A la carte availability is definitely based on your demand, so feel free to let us know if there’s a shirt you’re really jonesing for!
