I'm down with the flu, so I'm in bed playing with a few new iPhone apps & I finally got the opportunity to check out Path. And this good me thinking about good ideas...

See, about 3 months ago we had the idea to do something similar as a Radiiate project and decided against it as there were many similar apps / services available. Yet Path - regardless of whether this is merited - have done really well to create a lot of buzz for their product.

So this begs me to reiterate what others have said: great ideas without execution are worth nothing. If we had similar passion to the Path crew, that could've been our app. The fact that we had the idea however counts for nothing...

Having teased this little project last week, I'm so excited to launch it: The One Percent Project.

All of us uses our computers all day long and I bet that most of us normally can't wait to upgrade our computer setups to the latest tech (rewarding ourselves for our hard work). I know I do that... So this project is all about giving something (very related) back to enable those that will not get the opportunity otherwise.

I have kickstarted the campaign with a $200 USD donation myself and I hope I can count on you guys & girls to do the same! :)

WooThemes has just released the design (by Tim van Damme) which I used to promote & pre-sell my book, Rockstar Business. Having sold more than a 1000 copies already, I'd argue that the design served my needs pretty well. :)

So I just finally managed to edit some photos from our honeymoon to Greece, Spain & Portugal in October. You can view a couple of snaps on my Flickr profile.

A little teaser for a new project launching next week, as a result of a collaboration between Radiiate & Rockstar Foundation. (You can also see more teasers here.)
