Very cool find here - a tartan pattern background generator! You can adjust the width and color of up to 10 bands, as well as adjust the overall “yarn” (pattern) size. You can also change the orientation of the pattern from normal horizontal and vertical patches/stripes to diagonals. Also provides you with the option to preview the pattern fullscreen, in a smaller preview box, or a single tile. You can download your finished pattern (as a .png file) and share the pattern with other users of Tartanmaker by naming and tagging your creation. Check out the gallery too, which offers you the option of downloading other user’s creations, rating patterns or modifying them.

Let’s face it. As much as we hate it and as much as it sucks from a programming and design POV, Myspace is one of those sites that most of us visit at least once a day. We all use it to keep in touch with friends and family, reunite with high school buddies and to network with new people. Sometimes your friends and family members try to be tricky.

And as much as you deny it, you really want to know who’s in your boyfriend’s Top 8 right? Yeh, we all do. So what to do short of hacking into his Myspace? It’s easy, and here is how!
I’ve been signed up, and using Rojo’s Feedshare since I’ve heard about it on Tech Crunch months ago. I thought it was a great way to get your feed/blog exposure in an unintrusive adsensey type of way.
