Ed. note: It has come to my attention that the content for the image below already exists. I had seen the Google+ one from a Google+ post, was immediately reminded of the “How Pee Helps Us Understand Social Media” graphic, and made this, further inspired by the comments on the Google+ thread. (I have not seen the Instagram version since I am an Android user and do not have an Instagram account.) As a result, I have decided to remove my URL from the bottom of this image, but will keep this up with the Istagram picture linked: http://instagr.am/p/nm695/ I hope that this is a satisfactory compromise for those who believe this is straight plagirism.

Last year, I had shared a small graphic which explained how pee helps us undertand social media.

Today, I’ve decided to create my own with a more current list of popular social media…this time, with donuts! (Because who doesn’t love donuts?) Enjoy! 

Are you suffering from a case of the Mondays? Well, I’ve got good news for you, because this week I’m offering an exciting giveaway from Next Day Flyers!

Next Day Flyers is an online printing company that delivers top-quality printed marketing materials with one of the fastest turnaround times in the industry. Their printing procedure is environmentally friendly with the use of recycled materials and waste-reducing processes. All print jobs are subjected to a 33 quality checkpoints before being shipped, and their Online Design Center ensures that designing, and ordering print jobs are as easy and painless as possible.

Next Day Flyers has operated out of Los Angeles for the past 13 years, but they recently opened a new printing facility in New Jersey which means that not only can customers take advantage of the dual-coast time zones with extended business hours, they can also benefit from faster printing and lower shipping costs.

To celebrate the opening of their new, solar-powered facility, Next Day Flyers has graciously offered to give one of my readers a FREE set of 500 business cards! The cards can be printed in full color on both sides, on 14PT ultra-thick cardstock with a UV or matte coating. Next Day Flyers has also offered the winner of this giveaway free shipping within the United States.

Keep in mind that you don’t need to use business cards just for business purposes! You can use this credit to print coupons, save-the-dates, appointment cards, or even mini greeting cards. Since Next Day Flyers allows you to upload your own design, the possibilities are endless.

Danish bus company Movia runs a night bus service which caters to the Copenhagen party crowd and other nocturnal creatures. This double layered video (which activates on mouseover) acts as a reminder to the folks who continue to party late into the wee hours of the morning when taking the night bus might be a better option. Or, as the copy says: “Is it time to get home?”.

Wait for the below movie to load, then move your cursor over the unfolding scenes to see how you think you look versus how you actually look when you’re drunk. Having been in the situation myself numerous times in my younger years, I can attest to the hilarity of each scene. 

(Ed. note: I have decided to hide the rest of this post from the front page so that the movie doesn’t automatically start playing for those who do not want to see it. Click the link below to see the entire post!)
