Being known for our non-traditional ideas, my agency’s annual holiday card is expected to be much more than a piece of paper and a photo. With “green thinking” being the latest craze, this year’s card is actually not a card at all— it’s a screensaver. The Renegade Greensaver, to be exact. The Greensaver serves up eco-friendly tips. It’s connected to the Internet and will display fresh user-generated tips to you on a regular basis.

With a “do as I say, not as I do” mentality, try to ignore the hypocrisy of getting conservation tips from an energy guzzling machine and download the Greensaver here. It’s available for both Mac and PC, so you have no excuse not to check it out.

If you live in New York City or are planning a visit, check out last year’s card— I Saw NY. The website uses Google Maps technology to plot user-submitted reviews and tips on New York’s best restaurants, bars, shopping and everything in between. Anyone can contribute, so share your favorite watering hole or sushi place with the world. Don’t have one or want to find a new one? You’re in luck, users have already submitted everything from where to see a guy play a saw as an instrument to a store that sells superhero equipment.

I was responsible for the front-end programming on both of these projects. As always, your questions and comments are encouraged.
