No Coal for me, must have been a good boy.

Ok, so what does a 33 year old Managing Director (Thats Chief Executive for the US folks) of 2 very tech companies gets for XMAS ?

A nice briefcase ? a laptop ? a silk tie ?, one of those “how to become a better manager” over priced books ?

Naah .. Santa (AKA the wife) got me not what I needed, but exactly what I wanted this year .. a Nitro Powered, 1/10th dual gear automatic RC Car :D

Look at that engine .. cant wait to power it up this weekend and go play…

I was impressed .. every year she tries to impress me with tech gizmos, the kind of stuff the Executive in me should have, this year she decided it was the inner-child on myself that really loved XMAS and it was time to please that child instead .. and pleased I am :)

So now it’s time to buy some nice alloy’s for it…

New XMAS Creative

Sunday, December 10th, 2006

We added some nice touches to the Relio site, one of them is a Christmas theme logo

Nata-Logo-Big-1

And the other is a Christmas theme splash for the main-page

Xmas-Splash-2
Do you see Santa ?

We will do more of both for each major holiday :)

I also added a new CSS feature (lightbox) to open the images with a faded BG, looks great.

Rea & Leo – Ep 7

Friday, December 1st, 2006

This one was a no brainer … it’s December.

The idea behind it was to make a cartoon where Leo is complaining he wont wear a clown’s red nose .. the idea behind the nose is so he looks like Rudolph.

I am amazed at how much people liked this one, maybe it’s the XMAS spirit.
