It’s the third week of March, which means one thing - let’s celebrate. Know one needed an excuse on St. Patty’s Day to join in for the annual celebration of all things green. And beginning Thursday it’s time get on board with March Madness. The 2008 NCAA basketball tournament gets into full swing with games round the clock as teams square off in David & Goliath match ups to determine this year’s champion. I only have one tip for you this year - jump on the bandwagon and go with UCLA to win it all.

Speaking of tournaments one of our magazine advertisers, QuitYourDayJob.com, recently ran an ad design contest on 99designs.com, a website where ad designers can respond to requests from advertisers to submit new ad designs. It’s a very cool site that allows the advertiser to share feedback with the designers and enables them to submit unlimited revisions to the ad until the advertiser finds the design they like. Here’s the hook: the advertiser only has to pay the designer who creates the winning ad design! 99designs looks like another great collaboration resource that should come in handy as you are planning for your next ad in Revenue.

In the meantime, I seem to be getting a plethora of messages and well wishes on Facebook today. What a pleasant surprise to see all the birthday love pouring in from near and far. Cheers everyone and Happy Birthday to all the March 19the babies worldwide.
