Last night I posted the new Twibbon feature that we have launched. Not sure if you have seen them before, but Twibbons are a sort of online sticker that you can add to your Facebook profile or your Twitter avatar to show your support of something.

Yesterday was Easter Sunday. It was also the day the Canucks were supposed to take the 1st round of playoffs. That didn’t happen.

Despite the rain on Saturday spirits were high in Whistler during the Telus World Ski and Snowboard Fest. The pinnacle day was Sunday when we did a small, understated crawl through the Village in our Canadiana Thuggie.
