Putting a new spin on the old greeting card
2004
SpinCards don't come with software or instructions on how to create a custom CD -- they are simply colorful slates for users to paint with up to 700 megabytes of data. The CDs fit firmly inside their accompanying cards, snapping onto a knob much like those in basic CD cases. There are only a half-dozen SpinCards available now, and three are devoted to weddings, one for Christmas, one for announcing a new baby and one for pitching romantic woo. SpinCards cost $6 for one or $25 for a pack of six. [Russell Gnant] said others are coming, including SpinCards for birthdays and graduations. Gnant said that any themed blank CD at the company's CDRstore.com could be a potential SpinCard in the future, including the colorful array of disks in the site's \"family,\" \"holiday\" and wedding categories. Currently, SpinCards are available only online, but Gnant said the company will likely announce other retail options at the end of May.
Newspaper Article
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Stanley Miller II column
2004
Steve Brachman, a waste reduction specialist for the University of Wisconsin Extension, said the new policy will add significant costs for the cities and towns running e-waste recycling programs and possibly decrease the amount of electronics recycling in the state. A-1 Recycling, 2101 W. Morgan Ave., is one of Recycle America Alliance's \"eCycling\" locations, as well as firms in Madison, Janesville, Menasha and Superior. For a fee, the facilities accept consumer electronics, including stereos, VCRs and computer equipment. Joe Aho, a business development manager for Recycle America Alliance, said the centers recycle electronics from residential users and small and medium-sized businesses. Aho said recycling pricing is \"geared toward a per-pound basis\" for businesses.
