Little Inspiration

GREEN: Weekend Photography Challenge —

This weekend your photography challenge is in honor of St Patricks day (next Wednesday). It is to take a photo with the theme of ‘GREEN’ and to share it with our community.

Feel free to take any approach to the theme – it might be photographing something Green, or it could be taking a photo with an ‘environmental’ edge…. or perhaps a picture of someone who is inexperienced in something (feeling Green)…. whatever you like.

I’m expecting lots of apples, frogs, leaves…. but if you need a little inspiration – check out our previous coloured challenges – RED and BLUE.

Once you’ve taken your “GREEN” image, upload it to your favourite photo sharing site and either share a link to it below or embed it in the comments using the our new tool to do so.

If you tag your photo on Flickr, Twitter or other sites with Tagging tag it as #DPSGREEN to help others find it. Linking back to this page might also help others know what you’re doing so that they can share in the fun.

GREEN: Weekend Photography Challenge

Sponsor post: Sponsor post: How to Work Remotely, Worry-Free —

Let’s face it: When it comes to working remotely, there’s still a lot of pushback in the corporate world. However, the tide is turning thanks to companies like LogMeIn, which make working from home — or anywhere, for that matter — easier for you and your company.

With nearly 20 million users, LogMeIn Free lets people access their remote computers — be they PC or Mac — and all their files and programs, from anywhere, anytime, in order to do anything.

Because LogMeIn Free lets you use the remote computer just like you’re sitting in front of it without restriction (oh all right, it needs to be turned on), it’s becoming one of the de facto tools for remote workers and may just be pointing the way to a future in which no one is tied to a location in order to access data — and a time when all bosses will be cool with that.

Of course, it’s different when you’re the boss. Like Richard, CEO of Subliminal Science, who runs the Scottsdale-headquartered company out of Tulsa, Ariz.

Today, there are millions of people — from IT professionals to entrepreneurs to students — who, just like Richard, use LogMeIn Free to help them take care not only of business, but life.

Check out more stories and maybe get a little inspiration about how you can work from home with LogMeIn Free.

Spend This Weekend with Rocket Nerds —

I think space is awesome, and so does the Geeklet. There are plenty of geeks who agree, so we’re putting on a space conference this weekend. We call it SpaceUp.

SpaceUp takes the tech-community unconference format and brings it to space geeks. That means any kind of space geek: aspiring astronauts, garage-based rocket nerds, space entrepreneurs, NASA employees, and all those awesome Space Tweeps. The attendee list is already pretty exciting.

If you’re in the area, join us at the San Diego Air & Space Museum this weekend, February 27-28. Registration is just $75 for the whole weekend, including food, swag, and behind-the-scenes tours of the Museum. We’ll also have space hardware on display just for SpaceUp.

If you can’t make it to San Diego, you can follow the live coverage on Spacevidcast. SVC will stream live video, plus they’ll have chat rooms open for each session so you can ask questions no matter where you are. They’ll also webcast the Ignite talks from the party on Saturday night, if you’re up for a little inspiration.

Registration closes tomorrow (Thursday), but feel free to jump in online at any time. Hope to see you there!
