No, the title of this blog post isn’t a typo.

\nThere is a spreadsheet and then there is a Spreadshirt.<\/p>\n
A spreadsheet is a type of application that organizes information, usually values, into rows and columns. It’s based on the original VisiCalc program from the late 1970s. A unique concept.<\/p>\n
Spreadshirt isn’t a thing, it’s a web site. Specifically, it’s a web service that lets you design your own T-shirts.<\/p>\n
Normally I don’t plug things like Spreadsheet. In fact, I can promise you that they didn’t give me a coupon, discount, or even send me a press release. No, I actually used Spreadshirt this Christmas to design my own t-shirt gifts.<\/p>\n
I enjoy giving out whacky t-shirts. I go to ThinkGeek and other sites and buy some of their funky and funny shirts. But often they’re boring. I can think up better phrases and things to put on t-shirts myself. So I discovered Spreadshirt.<\/p>\n
Not only does Spreadshirt let you design your own Ts, it’s cheap. I paid just a hair over $10 for each shirt I had made. Compare that with about $20 per shirt for those other t-shirts you see advertised on the Web, and Spreadshirt is a heck of deal.<\/p>\n
The shirts are nice, as well: sturdy cotton. The printing is silkscreened, not some heavy “bullet proof” iron-on.<\/p>\n
Besides creating and buying shirts, you can also open your own Spreadshirt store. I’ve done that, and eventually plan on adding a link here on Wambooli to my t-shirt store.<\/p>\n
