The Smarterer!!



A while back I posted about smarterer. Smarterer is a platform designed to score individuals on digital, social, and technical skills. Using crowdsourced test design and a scoring mechanism similar to the one developed to rank chess masters, in just 10 questions and 60 seconds we can give you a valid score.

I have been using it and achieved a master score in my fave ever product panel - Bzzagent! I was really impressed how it actually not only evaluated my smarts in this panel, but enabled me to learn things I hadn't known before. This is a very useful tool for such areas as

Blogging tools like Blogger, Tumblr, and WordPress
Browser systems such as Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer
Games like Angry Birds and World of Warcraft
Social Media tools like Facebook, Flickr, Google+, Twitter, and YouTube

Can you imagine getting a score in some of these things? It is so cool to see how you stack up against other people or just teach yourself some random facts about these applications. I am anxious to see how Smarterer becomes even more useful in the coming years. But for now like them on facebook to keep up on the latest trends and developments.



Have fun!! :)

Pet Food!!




I just received a campaign from bzzagent to try new Science Diet Grain free cat food. I just ordered my bag for free and I am so excited. I hope my kitty will be as happy as I am. I have been hearing so much about protein being an important staple in a cat's life and I know that all the excess grains and by products most cat foods use is not healthy for her. So I will posting soon how my kitty responds to this food and what she thinks of it, but until then, I am really excited about this campaign!

Old Navy Sample Share thru Crowdtap


Crowdtap is a fabulous new site that has an online Old Navy council - so many people passionate about Old Navy get to discuss the amazing clothes and fashions that Old Navy has and I am one of those lucky people. On occasion, Crowdtap sends out a sample share and let's me and a friend pick out an outfit or a top or some other fashion-forward piece for absolutely FREE!! This is such an exciting event.

I was so excited about this sample share! After a long winter I was ready to get some bright fun tanks and tees to beat the winter blahs. I chose my friend Michele to go with me and we went to a great big ON that we have here in northern CO.

I was absolutely amazed by all the choices and colors there were to choose from. My friend and I took our time looking at all the tanks and tees and the other clothes too. I just love ON's style this year! The flip flops and the dresses! I am so anxious for spring after being there. I chose a couple of tanks in bright colors that I plan to layer and my friend chose a basic v-neck tee and a tank as well. It was great fun to get in on the new spring colors.

When we checked out, the cashiers were floored that we got these things for absolutely free and they wanted to know what we were a part of. I told them all about ON's style council and got their emails so I could send them a link to sign up.

It was a great day and we had so much fun! Thank you Old Navy! You rock! :)
