I gotta give credit for inspiring this
site to Chris Rue (happyfunboy)
and Vlad Mazek (vladville.com). I was on the SBS Show with
Chris and Vlad awhile back. Vlad mentioned all their downloads and Chris
pondered whether they could retire if they charged a penny apiece.
Some time later I sent t-shirts to the
good folks at the SBS Show and they sent me a link for their shirt. I
bought one immediately because I want to support what they do. I have
learned so much from these folks, and I know it costs money to put that
content out there.
So then I got to thinking about Susan
Bradley and Handy Andy and Jeff Middleton -- and many, many more -- who
contribute to our community. I'd buy a t-shirt from every one of them!
It costs me $10-15 and helps them out a little. Count me in.
Then my own user group, the
Sacramento Small
Business Server Technology Group, started talking about putting
together a t-shirt. And that got me thinking that every user group in
the world should have a t-shirt.
I'd love to have a shirt from the Prague
user group, and the Netherland user group, etc. As long as they're not
all white! That would kill the project.
If you want to thank Chris and Vlad and
Susan and Andy and Jeff and everybody else -- go buy their t-shirts!

About GLB
Great Little Book Publishing is the company I created to publish my
first book, The Network Documentation Workbook. I created a web
site so I could advertise the book and have a landing page for online
ads.
I also created a site called
www.i5pc.com in order to do some local
advertising for my consulting business (KPEnterprises
Business Consulting, Inc.). But since i5pc.com was really just a
place to send people so they could get to KPE, I decided not to "waste"
that space. So I started posting some ideas for consultants -- like
radio advertising.
The T-Shirt Project is intended to be
just a fun thing to do on the side. We don't make any money from this.
It just seems that all the groups out
there with a shirt should have a way to share that with other.
