Elegantly geeky

This is my delicious new Flicka laptop bag, handmade by the lovely Alice - you can find Alice’s shop at flickaalice.etsy.com.
It arrived yesterday and of course it looks even more gorgeous in the flesh than in photos. It’s very well made, certainly stands out from the usual laptop bags and my Mac Powerbook fits perfectly.
Given the love affair I confess to having with my Mac (even though it is getting on a bit now) I felt it was apt to get a really nice protective bag to carry it about in when I take it elsewhere to work - and now I’ve got one!
Flicka bags come in various sizes, with a myriad of fabric designs available and they are made for both Macs and PCs - although why you’d want to put a nasty PC in such a lovely bag is beyond me ;P.
(Note to self: must be less mean to PC users in public).
So that’s a hearty recommendation from me. If you’ve got a laptop or know someone who does, you should go shopping!

Gawd, I don’t get the myspace thing either! lol, BUT, last night on Etsy there were about 5 threads of links and everyone was adding each other, SO, I set one up, I’m not going to blog on it or anything, I just put up links to my other sites and some piccies, then joined the etsy group, the craftster group and the Aussie Etsy street team group, then I added everyone from the links list on the Etsy blog and put up my addy and so on.
SO, I’m just using it as another networking tool, you know like the flickr contact thread that we did?
I TOTALLY don’t know how to use it though, personally I hate the layout of the site (and so does my computer!).
Does that help a little? If you get one let me know! Have you joined the Etsy Down Under yahoo group too? I could go and look but I’m too lazy, lol
