We (Sullivan Higdon & Sink that is) just created a little branded widget for Helzberg Diamonds to help forgetful people (like yours truly) remember that Valentine's Day is approaching fast. So, if you're a widget lover, point your browser to Yahoo widgets and look for the Helzberg Diamonds Valentine's Day Countdown widget. As you can see, we didn't choose to be exactly subtle in our holiday iconography. But, what the heck, Valentine"s Day comes but once a year. Enjoy. And let us know if it helped keep you out of hot water.
Update: We've been added to Apple's Dashboard Widgets page now. Not only that, but as of this writting, the Helzberg widget is the "featured widget." Wow, talk about unexpected. -sg

Maybe now your web designers could finish www.wehatesheep.com. So we don't have to keep seeing that teaser page for a few more months!

Oh now, Tom...you've heard about the cobbler's childrens shoes! Look for a launch late this week or early next. It's not that it's such a huge or fancy site. It's just that we've been so damn busy.

Nice! Congrats. I myself work on a mall-type diamond client here in Seattle and we've been trying to get them to do something this interesting for centuries. So good work on your part for getting a traditional business to try something that is very untraditional, yet perfect for them! Bueno.

I just had to give you all a hard time about the site. i am just excited to see a new one - even though I like the one you have. I'm an instant gratification kinda guy and that is just pure torture for that long!
I too give you kudos on the widget.
