GreenGamma Stuff
 
New GreenGamma Logo - We've created a new logo at GreenGamma.com.  We felt we needed a bolder brand to reflect the bold companies that list their websites on GreenGamma.  What do you think?
   
Twitter Mood Music - Ok, so we wanted to add some entertainment on our website so we decided to tie it in with our Twitter campaign.  If you go to our website and click on the arrow in the little blue box, under the Twitter logo, you'll get to hear some very cool and fun Twitter mood music. Please visit if you want to get in the mood.
   
Gamma Video - Continuing on the entertainment theme, we've added a section to place some fun, or interesting or educational video on the website.  My favorite is the "Boom de Yada" video"...it is sooo cool.  (By the way if you have a video that promotes your product or site we'd be happy to host it at Gamma Video.  Email me for details).
 
Help me, Help you - We are jazzed to report that if you search the term "Green Search", Greengamma comes out on Page # 1 out of millions (and sometimes Billions) of search results.  Now that is awesome and we are very proud, but right now we are at the bottom of the page and want to push up to the top 4 positions.  You, our peeps, can help by linking back to Greengamma.com from your websites, blogs, etc. (Many of you have already done that, thank you!)  If you want to help you can either copy and paste our logo from above and link to http://www.greengamma.com, or use the following text.  
 
URL: http://www.greengamma.com
Title: Green Search. Green Directory: Search the green web!   
 
You can also use the following HTML code:
<a href="
http://www.greengamma.com"> Green Search. Green Directory</a> Search the green web!

Now how does that help you and the envoronment?  Well the more people that visit greengamma, the better the chance that they'll find your website and the broader the reach we as a green community will have!  Again, it's the old win/win cliche, but true!  I appreciate the consideration.


International Energy Resources                 
 
International Energy Resources or IER is the most popular site on greengamma.com for March 2009. International Energy Resources is committed to protecting and preserving our natural resources while improving the environment through the implementation of their IER Energy Saver. According to IER, the unit recyles and reconditions otherwise wasted electricity and saves from 10% to 30% on your electric bills while reducing your carbon footprint and protecting you from harmful EMFs. IER further states that the Energy Saver also provides full surge and spike protection for the entire home or business and extends the life of appliances and motor-driven devices because they will run cooler. NASA has even tested it. They guarantee your electric bill will reflect savings or your money back.  Please join me in congratulating them in this distinct honor.  (Want to be "Most Popular" on a very popular Greengamma.com?
