As we wind down 2008, we thought we’d end the year on a light note. I’d like to introduce you all to the new BioGPS mascots:
Bulldog
Frog
Saint Bernard
And as cute and adorable as these guys may be, they are so much more than mere eye candy for BioGPS fans. They also come equipped with a soft shammy t-shirt, specifically designed to clean your monitor of all that accumulated dust. [Ed note: Many people were missing this point, and it needs to be emphasized that this is a serious research tool.] Mine sits comfortably within arm’s length the corner of my monitor, so even when the science isn’t so clear, at least my computer screen is…
How do I get one of these fine BioGPS mascots, you ask? There are two standing ways to get a furry BioGPS friend. If you are the first person to report a bug or outage, or the first person to report a feature request we hadn’t previously thought of, we’ll happily send some swag your way.
In addition, from now until the end of 2008, we will send a BioGPS mascot to anyone who lets us know why they love to use BioGPS. The best responses will be collated and published on a “testimonials” page. Submit your story by emailing admin
biogps
org with “Why I use BioGPS” in the subject.
Happy holidays everyone…
