Hey everybody! Today want to share some pictures of Fractures in real life. Our Fracture Fanatic team, as well as friends and fans, were kind enough to send in pictures of their Fractures up in their homes and offices. If you have any more pics you would like to add, feel free to send them in. Without further ado…
With the school year now upon us, we wanted to impart some wisdom on all the new college students. I know there are a few things I wish I knew before heading off to school (like buy some slippers for the shower, cause dudes are nasty). So, here are some simple dorm tips from guys who spent 18 collective years in college:
TechCrunch recently came out with an article highlighting the recent wave of e-commerce customization. Check it out here. Basically, more and more companies and startups are figuring out ways to let consumers customize/personalize/completely-build-from-scratch products that in a simpler time only came in a one-size-fits-all look. They’re giving you choices when in the past you’d never think twice.
Lets take Chocomize, the custom candy bar website, as an example:

We have returned to Gainesville!!
…and we are beat. Our trip to New York was awesome: informative, inspirational, and exhausting all at the same time. We met so many cool people, especially the ladies from Kirtsy.com (who let us crash their party). We walked so much over the past 5 days, running laps around the city in preparation for Fridays show. Abhi said it best, “we went there with a mission, and left very satisfied”.
So, if you have not heard yet, Fracture is going to be present at this years BlogHer Conference (cheers..applause…air horns…vuvuzelas!). For the past 2 weeks we have been bustin our a$$ printing for the Voices of the Year Gala that is part of the conference.
If you’ve been on the internet, or have watched the news, lately then you have probably heard all the negative press surrounding America’s two favorite companies: Facebook and Apple. The spotlight-loving CEO’s of the two companies, which I will now call “FApple”, have been catching a lot of heat recently; and it pretty much boils down to them not giving a crap about their customers. Jobs has completely written off the antennae complaints of iPhone 4 users, and Zuckerberg doesn’t seem to be losing sleep over the apparent misuse of “private” FB information. I for one, think this is all awesome!
Garrish and Lozano Dentistry
When Frank Lozano of Garrish and Lozano Dentistry approached us about creating some Fractures for his dental office, we jumped at the opportunity. He had a neat idea in mind: taking 4 of our largest sizes and arranging them so that their outer-most perimeter created a large square. It was simple and elegant. Continue reading →
So, how many grads (recent or not so recent) have diplomas sitting around that have barely seen the light of day?…[raises hand]. Abhi can relate, his has not even left the cardboard tube it was shipped in.
