Doing more than just trying to make a buck

I have to give credit to shops that go out of their way to help their community. Oliver Russell’s o-pen purse program has been a long-standing example of such.

Today I happened upon another example.

Rizen Creative recently completed and launched a new website for the Boise Area Crime Stoppers. The site was done on a pro bono basis, led by Rizen’s Javier Barrera.

Now before everyone jumps down my throat, I’m sure that for every example such as this that I mention, there are a hundred that go unnoticed. I won’t dispute that fact. The only way I way I know to change it — send me any tips or news that you’d like to share.

And now that Thanksgiving has come and gone

We now return to regularly scheduled programming.

New updates coming soon. I’ve got a couple of job listings waiting in the wings, some thoughts / comments that came about as a result of getting away for a long weekend, and all the assorted nonsense that accompanies it.

In the mean time though, let’s see what George has been up to lately, shall we?
