May we inspire you?

Being Elmo, is multitasking really all it’s cracked up to be, Making Fiends (yes, you read that correctly FIENDS), mmmm tapas, classes in a “treehouse,” Inc. Magazine, and centralizing control over your … house?!

April inspirations

Inspired by something as simple as a mother and her young … we’re also inspired this month by the Hiring Our Heroes program, getting away from it all, thousands of fruits and veggies, spring of course!, and two legends: Johnny Cash and Doris Day.

March inspirations

A special family, Letter of Note, a dog says goodbye to his best friend, CoWerks, an awesome commercial (really!), and relaaaaaaaaax.

Things we love in February

This month’s inspirations from PRI include Pinterest, space-saving exercise equipment, TV’s “Downtown Abbey,” Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., TV’s “Fringe,” Michael Hazanavicius’ “The Artist,” and digital civil rights.

The cost-benefit of being polite

“Thank you” doesn’t cost anything. It is quick and it is easy. “Thank you” takes about one second of extra time to type, less to say on the telephone, or, depending on your dexterity, about the same time to send in a text.

January inspirations

For January, PRI is inspired by balance pods, getting healthy and staying fit, SARK, “The Swerve” by Stephen Goldblatt, Smart Cover for iPad 2, and two new planets!

December inspirations

This month we’re inspired by being able to peel a whole head of garlic in SECONDS, Steve Jobs (always), the Beatles, decorating for the holidays, convenient exercise equipment, the Muppets (love the Muppets!), Top Chef on Bravo, and decadent winter-time treats.

New and cool for October
