ArticlesOne Percent Project: One Final Push
by adii on December 20, 2010 in Articles
Since launching the One Percent Project almost a month ago today, we #8217;ve managed to get the project to 84% funding with all of your amazing help. For that, I #8217;d like to thank you sincerely on behalf of the whole Radiiate amp; Rockstar Foundation team; without your help this would not have been possible!
But (there #8217;s always a but, right?), we would so love to have the project 100% funded before we hit the start of 2011, so we #8217;re hoping we can count on you to make one final donation. And I #8217;d like to incentivize this is a little #8230;
Get the Twitter machine working!
Please tweet, re-tweet and re-re-tweet the following tweet:
Contribute to the One Percent Project. RT this amp; @adii donates $0.10 to charity for every tweet. http://bit.ly/onepercentproject
For every single tweet or re-tweet, I will personally donate $0.10 USD to the One Percent Project to make sure that we reach that 100% mark before the New Year starts. I #8217;m obviously also counting on you guys amp; girls to help me out by actually donating to the project as well #8230;
More Incentives
In addition to the *extreme warm fuzzies* of contributing to a great project, I will further try to make this worth your while. Every single donation and tweet from now until the end of the year (i.e. 31 December 2010 for those that tend to confuse easily ) will be entered into a prize draw for an awesome little gift package:
A signed hard cover edition of my book, Rockstar Business, along with a PDF version. (Note: The hard cover is actually sold out and not available otherwise.)
2 hours of my virtual time to answer any questions, be a consultant for your business or whatever.
An awesome, limited edition WooThemes gift package, which includes the special #8220;Where there is a WOO, there is a way #8221; t-shirt.
Not bad hey? Now get donating amp; tweeting!

ArticlesEverything is Amazing #8230;
by adii on December 2, 2010 in Articles
Next up on my to do of content is to complete the first chapter of Designing Emotion (I #8217;ve already submitted almost 20k words to our editor) and this chapter includes a section titled #8220;Everything is amazing and nobody is happy #8221; #8230; This I #8217;ve found to be a rather accurate description of how I feel #8230;
See in the past 3 months I #8217;ve only been at home for about 4 weeks of that time, due to my extensive travelling for both pleasure #038; business. In fact I #8217;m typing this on my 24 hour flight from Cape Town to Vegas, where I #8217;m speaking at a conference. So this is another 2 weeks that I #8217;ll be away from home.
I get that most people would love to see the Greek islands, London, Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, Amsterdam, Vienna, Vegas #038; LA on a 3 month whirlwind trip. And it has been a great opportunity (to be paid to travel) and experience, but for me at least the timing of all this has been too much.
At the moment I crave routine, I crave a full 7 day work week and I #8217;d love to be home more often and celebrate my newly status with my wife. I #8217;m probably different in that regard: if everything is amazing, I can #8217;t be happy unless these personal requirements are also met.

ArticlesGood Ideas
by adii on November 23, 2010 in Articles
I #8217;m down with the flu, so I #8217;m in bed playing with a few new iPhone apps #038; I finally got the opportunity to check out Path. And this good me thinking about good ideas #8230;
See, about 3 months ago we had the idea to do something similar as a Radiiate project and decided against it as there were many similar apps / services available. Yet Path #8211; regardless of whether this is merited #8211; have done really well to create a lot of buzz for their product.
So this begs me to reiterate what others have said: great ideas without execution are worth nothing. If we had similar passion to the Path crew, that could #8217;ve been our app. The fact that we had the idea however counts for nothing #8230;
I published this with Express from my iPhone.

ImagesOne Percent Project
by adii on November 22, 2010 in Images
Having teased this little project last week, I #8217;m so excited to launch it: The One Percent Project.
All of us uses our computers all day long and I bet that most of us normally can #8217;t wait to upgrade our computer setups to the latest tech (rewarding ourselves for our hard work). I know I do that #8230; So this project is all about giving something (very related) back to enable those that will not get the opportunity otherwise.
I have kickstarted the campaign with a $200 USD donation myself and I hope I can count on you guys #038; girls to do the same!
The One Percent Project is a little collaboration between Radiiate #038; The Rockstar Foundation and is the result of 2 days of work last week.

WooThemes has just released the design (by Tim van Damme) which I used to promote amp; pre-sell my book, Rockstar Business. Having sold more than a 1000 copies already, I #8217;d argue that the design served my needs pretty well.
More information on the release here.

So I just finally managed to edit some photos from our honeymoon to Greece, Spain #038; Portugal in October. You can view a couple of snaps on my Flickr profile.
I used Christine Meintjes #8216; awesome Lightroom presets (available here) to edit some of the photos.
