Neatorama Update - 3/9/09

Posted by Alex in Neatorama Only on March 9, 2009 at 2:53 pm


Hello Neatoramanauts! Just a real quick update:

Mystery Sale – the warehouse started shipping out the orders last Friday. We will ship every day (it may take us a week or so) till all the orders go out. I’ll do another update later this week.

Upcoming Queue – if you have original content on your blog, here’s a good reason to submit it to the Upcoming Queue. From Bill Zeman, whose blog was frontpaged on Neatorama:

[Tiny Art Director] has been getting tons of traffic and links lately, including Andrew Sullivan of the Atlantic, The Guardian (best of the web), Saatchi Gallery (world art news), Neatorama.com, b3ta.com, Metafilter.com, Daily Candy, Design Observer, NotCot.org, FlavorPill (in the viral section), Urlesque.com…

Thanks to everyone who is linking and sorry that I can’t list everyone, but I want to give a shout out to neatorama.com where all this traffic originated. If you want to promote a site, check out their upcoming queue feature – just make sure your server is ready for it – mine wasn’t!

LinkThanks Bill!

Neatorama Store – back in stock: Fuzz, the Crime Scene Scarf – just $13.95

    Nie wiem o czym mowa w tym poscie, ale ten szalik jest rewelacyjny.

    @ The Manticore - I got the same straw today, its a neat idea but the $10 retail value is kinda shaky...Thanks for the fun/suspense factor though!

    well I washed all the pieces and it doesn't smell so much, but the connector pieces just dont get enough of a seal on them :/

    The suspense is KILLING me! I am picturing the 'warehouse' as Alex's laundry room...

    I absolutely want to see a picture of the "warehouse". I have visions of a giant light industrial type complex with workers on Segways.

    I am starting to smell a scam. I got the stupid straw as well. Last time I participate in this thing.

    bah even if I get the straws, it's something I never would have bought myself but my son will love.

    hope high, expect low. you won't be disappointed. :)

    I too by luck of the draw, got the straw!
    My kid loves it.
    Maybe next time I will get a shirt or a set of those awesome bone conduction headphones...who knows.

    Meh, I got the straw, but don't have a kid to pawn it off on! Oh well.

    I also got the straw today... Although I probably won't really use it, it's still kind of cool :) I spun the wheel and that's what I got, so I don't mind... I consider it fun to play! I'm glad I didn't order three, though :)

    Hi guys - a little bleary eyed update. It's 10:50 PM Friday night, and yours truly is still at his messy warehouse working ...

    And yes, a lot of you got Strawz (retail value $9.99 to $15 online when I sourced it) - if you buy two, you get something else besides Straws. :)

    @kate and romreader - I wish it were my laundry room at home, then my commute would be so short!

    Here's a pic of my messy warehouse (up to a couple of hours ago, this was PACKED with boxes about waist high - I cleaned up for y'all)

    I got the straws too. There were two sets, so each of my kids got some to play with.

    Look at all of those boxes of STRAWZ!

    I kid, i kid.
