Spotlight: Jacob Cass | Just Creative Design
This week’s spotlight is on Jacob Cass, writer of Just Creative Design.
Why I chose Jacob’s blog

First, to celebrate his blog’s first birthday, Jacob recently put together a contest to raise money for the Blog Action Day Poverty Fund. You can enter the contest two ways, by writing an article about design and/or making a donation to the fund. Sixty six winners will be selected at random to each win one of $11,000 worth of prizes. The contest raised over $400 for the charity within its first week. Visit the blog for specifics on how to enter. read more
