Seattle @ home, a new home and garden feature from the Seattle PI included an article on Clip-n-Seal in Saturday's edition. The bag of electric-greenish liquid in the photo is gatorade and that's Scott's arm and hand. After seeing that photo, I told Scott, our Brand Manager, that he could be a arm/hand model. But don't quit the day job.

Jeremy Wagstaff, a Wall Street Journal reporter, posts on how he loves Clip-n-Seal. Jeremy also wrote about us for a column on the Slashdot effect. Occasionally, we’ll get reports from the road on how he’s sealed up nearly everything in his hotel room noting that, “nothing is spared from the Clip-n-Seal.”

We posted photos of the Space Mondo and, man, if Guinness World Records had a category for the worlds largest bag clip, I think we'd win! It's so huge, it's oversized when we ship it UPS. As the PI reported, we don't know exactly what the Space Mondo holds for NASA, but it's big, 41 inches.

Last week Byron, our founder and Clip-n-Seal inventor, announced during his keynote in Colorado that New Riders has agreed to publish a book about blogs he is writing with Erin Kissane and Steve Broback. The book will include case studies on Clip-n-Seal and other businesses that are using blogs. The New Riders imprint is published by Peachpit Press and the book will be part of the Voices that Matter series.

To learn more about business blogging, check the Blog Business Summit. Byron will be speaking there in August and is a cofounder of the event.

The Seattle PI reported today in their Business Briefs section that we shipped NASA a custom Clip-n-Seal for testing and possible inclusion on a future Space Shuttle flight. The Space Mondo is 3/4 inches in diameter, 40 inches long, and is being supplied to NASA via a partnership with Welch Fluorocarbon. Welch manufactures specialized teflon bags.

The thought of Clip-n-Seals in space has the team riffing on all sorts of tag lines

We’ll post a follow up on NASA’s testing and will count it down, if Clip-n-Seals make it on a flight.
