Something New at Bakktalk...


Well, i do have something really interesting to pass on this time, and it's pretty much the only reason that i'm even posting right now...

The Flip Mino Digital Camcorder!

The wildly popular and handy Flip Mino digital camcorder has become a new addition to my product line. It is displayed here with a blank white front. But, if you go to my Flip Mino section, click on either of the two boxes and you'll see the customized designs that are available so far here at section Bakktalk Online Gifts. The design possibilities are endless and add a slice of creativity to the product. Unique designs for a unique and creative product, these Flips are available in regular and, now, HD versions.

For those of you who want the skinny on the technical info, this info should fill the bill. And for those of you who are just interested in some general information, this should help you out.

In my humble opinion, these are truly a great gift idea for just about anybody. Compact (pocket-sized), portable and easy to use, they can go anywhere to capture those unexpected (or expected) moments that would be otherwise lost.

Check out the info available for this item and see if you don't know someone who wouldn't just love to get their paws on one of these. I know i'm going to order one!

If anyone reading this has a request for a personalized design that they'd like to have done for themselves, please e-mail me at www.bladimz@dejazzd.com. Remember, there's only one you and who wouldn't want their Flip to reflect them?

Until next time, be smart, be safe and be good. Just like me.

November 6th and we've got a new President...

Although i followed the campaigns this cycle more closely than ever before, i (along with so many others) are glad that it is over. Finally. I think that this is one election that few will forget, and i hope that America's ship now sales in a better direction.

This victory for Barack Obama follows closely on the heels of the Philadelphia Phillies' first World Series Championship since 1980! For the first time in a long time it is great to be a Phillies fan. What a year 2008 is winding up to be!

My wife, Eileen, has been shooting photos faster than i can process them. One she took while we were in the Adirondacks. She was trained on a shot down through some trees onto the river below when our dog, Scarlett, stepped into the frame at the last second. The result was rather captivating, and i've added the image to the Beanscapes section in our Bakktalk Online Gifts shop.

This is the image as it appears on the coaster tile, and it is available as a print in several sizes. Available also on mugs, the keepsake box, the pillow, note cards, greeting cards and more.

Scarlett is a special dog for Eileen and i. She came to us as a rescued dog at the age of 7. Severely undernourished and desperate for attention and love, she bonded immediately with Eileen, and then, with me. It's been a little more than a year now since she's been with us, and i can't imagine not having her with us. She is a pro at catching frisbee, and is an excellent defensive soccer player. She's been well trained somewhere along the line, but more recently suffered some hard times. Taking Scarlett into the family has been as good for us as it has been for her.

I rattle on sometimes, but dogs have always been a part of my life...

Anyway, the holiday season is banging at the front door and i have been busy adding new designs almost daily. I haven't concentrated on holiday designs specifically; i feel that a lot of the designs i am creating will serve as excellent gifts for friends and loved ones. Browse around the shop. There is something for just about everyone. And take a look at one of the newest additions to the product line: the Flip Mino video camera. At this point i've only created two designs for this item. One is for Long Beach Island fans, the other is more generic in nature.

I know that this will be one of the hardest shopping seasons for many of us with the current national economic problems we are experiencing. I can only hope that it lasts a short time and that we get back on track as a nation very soon.

Please have a safe and pleasant holiday season. And remember that what really counts is family and friends. Not things.
