This little widget gives people a chance to develop their own greeting card that they can send to others using the music and pictures of the band as a template. It’s quite impressive.
    b. And to cap off this week, I present you with the poster that Stephen Colbert created to commemorate his personal participation in the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics. I love it (and you should too, if you have any sort of a sense of humor)!
