I have a huge list of interior design sites I love, here are a few of my current favs:

Just for fun, here are some pics from an amazing house that Carolina Eclectic (great site by the way). Basically my dream modern cottage.

Special thanks to my partner Ken who has been working selflessly to change the MNF theme. Over the next week or so we’ll continue to change colors, pictures, etc. So hold on and enjoy the ride.

Ken definitely wins the best tech boyfriend award this week!

There are a ton of great career blogs out there. I read them all the time because I work as a freelance consultant — so it feels like I am always looking for a job.

Squidoo & Laptop Bags & ScribeFire

Three things to love in one post:

First, is Squidoo. Squidoo allows users to build easy “lenses” on anything they are passionate about. You can create pages on your own work, your favorite food, philosophy or celebrity. A little more info:

A lens is one person’s view on a topic that matters to her. It’s an easy-to-build, single web page that can point to blogs, favorite links, RSS feeds, Flickr photos, Google maps, your eBay auctions, CafePress designs, Amazon books or music, and oh so much more. That way, when someone is looking for recommended information, fast, your lens gets him started and sends him off in the right direction. Hooray for you!

I went to Squidoo this morning after seeing that Chistine Kane’s blog also as a Squidoo page. I was on her site looking for information on vision boarding — more to come on that later.

Then once I got to Squidoo I stumbled onto my second great find:

A Squidoo page devoted to funky, chic, and cool laptop bags. I never get tired of looking for my next laptop bag. I was thinking of the cute HER bag, but at $270 it is currently out of my price range. Still I can drool over it anyway!

Third, I did this post from inside my FireFox browser using ScribeFire. It is a great way to link posts from several pages without having to flip back and forth from one tab to another. Special thanks to lapster for suggesting it!

Have a great day!
