Because I <3 Threadless
Some of you know of my Threadless addiction. If you didn't know before, you know now. :)
Threadless is social networking on a capitalistic and artistic scale. People submit designs, members of the community vote on them, the shirts with the most votes get printed and sold. When you create an account, you can roll in links to your blog, your flickr account, and other bits, you can have your own blog on Threadless, and you can interact with other users. You get Street Team points when you send in pics of yourself wearing a shirt, or when you link to a shirt from your blog and someone buys it; those points turn into dollars that you can use to buy more shirts.
I can't tell you how addicted I am. My husband once said I'm 10 shirts from an intervention. That was, like, 10 shirts ago, at yet he encourages me when I see the good ones. ;D
In this week's new T's newsletter was this gem:
I'm thinking I need to cash in some Street Team points and own me one, and wear it to work (I wear my Threadless T's to work frequently, and my coworkers love them). I encourage other library folks and fans to do the same. :)
Happy Friday from the Icy Northeast!
