Ok, 2012, right? We're going to kick some ass and take some names. We'll make it to the gym more, not drink so much (during the week) and try not to spend so much time at our computers, oh, and post more. And we resolve to help make Atlanta even better than it was in 2011.

To that end:

Creative people - Join us. Create a profile to show off your work. It's free and companies look for talent on our site all the time. It'll take you 5 minutes. And when you create something cool? Send it to us. We love posting your work.

Creative businesses - Send us your work. Ad agencies, art galleries, musicians, mobile developers - if it's creative, we want to see it. But don't let that limit you. New hires, big news, company picnic photos - all good.

Anyone with a job opening - Post a job with us. Our Jobs Page is the second-most visited page on our site (after the home page) and the Atlanta's most creative folks are there looking at it. For a fraction of the price of most job boards, you'll get a highly targeted job post and great applicants (internships and freelance positions are still free!). Or post internationally across all the Egotist sites and get the eyeballs of 28 creative communities on your job post (including Dubai!)

Anyone looking for a job - Again, join us. That gives you a 3-day sneak peek at the great jobs posted here.

Advertisers - Our banner ads (to the right) are ridiculously cheap. Talk to us at atlanta@theegotist.com for info on how you can get your product or service in front of Atlanta's most creative people.

Writers - Have something to say? Write an editorial for us. We're always open to interesting points of view. Drop us a line at atlanta@theegotist.com if you're curious.

Here's to an awesome 2012.

Respectfully,
The Atlanta Egotist

If you're like us and can't believe that the holidays are behind us already, keep the holiday cheer alive for a little longer with Digitas' holiday card. Click the card to donate to a charity from each of the cities where they have offices, and then use their "Snowdude" bookmarklet to turn any website into a holiday wonderland.

E.g.:

Matchstic is starting the year off on a new foot, with a new brand. A year in the making, Matchstic has evolved their brand to fit with their new office space. The stationery suite is well thought out, using a custom set of stamps to personalize business cards and add personality to printed materials. As Matchstic continues to grow, this brand will serve the grown up identity firm well.

We spent some time cruising around the old Google Reader today and stumbled upon some behind the scenes footage of these designiacs at work.

This is what they look like in the morning:

This is what they look like dancing:

REI's grand opening of their new SOHO store could not have been timed more perfectly with the new urban camping trend (a.k.a. Occupy Wall Street). Hopefully the NYC store sells tents handmade by disgruntled unemployed workers, not big name corporations. Regardless, BBDO Atlanta introduced the new store to both the 99 and 1% by bringing expanses of beautiful landscapes to the crowded NYC streets with their integrated outdoor/augmented reality campaign.
