Brand Thunder

I wanted to promote another company here in Columbus that is really taking off...Brand Thunder.  Brand Thunder creates a customized browser for Mozilla Foxfire.  Patrick Murphy is the founder and has created a very exciting business.  Many companies are jumping in with Brand Thunder and creating browser themes that the user can download and experience the company's brand every time they log into the internet.  Also, as you get ready for Ohio State football now is the time to download the Coach Tressel browser theme from Brand Thunder.

How Green Are You?

I met with a new business yesterday that has established a blog site designed to review products claiming or certified as "Green" (environmentally friendly not the actual color green).  The site is called "Your Green Review".  Per the site "Green" is an umbrella term which can cover anything from products that are certified organic, to those which use rapidly renewable resources, to companies that have a low impact on the community in which they operate. In meeting with the founder she stated that the landscape for green certification varies and just because a company is certified it may not be doing all it can do or some companies that don't meet all of the requirements for certification may be better than those that are certified.  While the site is still in the early stages of development it is a good resource for those looking to determine if a product that they are buying is meeting their "green" expectations.  I encourage you to check out the site at http://yourgreenreview.com and support it as it grows.
