Wallpapers for web geeks

by Rob Mason ~ January 15th, 2008

Cool is a very subjective word. I think I’m pretty cool, but others may disagree. However somethings I know are cool. Things like the Happy Webbies wallpapers.

Nice approach to staff morale Ryan, keep them in with the latest kit and hopefully keep them happy (along with a great working environment, etc, etc). Now I wonder if I can convince my boss to get me one…
