Hurray!!! We’ve reached 100 followers on Twitter!
It’s a nice little milestone, and we’d like to share our thanks to all those who tune into our mumblings. :-) And in case you haven’t already, what are you waiting for? Check us out on the Twittersphere @KissMeImPolish.
Because, really – we’re pretty rad. Especially if you’re looking for a one-stop shop for all things fun, yummy, a little random, and a lot of Polish.
Kiss Me I’m Polish is now on Twitter! A little late of a blooming perhaps, but that’s only because we had to use our wiles to commandeer our user name from an inactive account devoted to Justin Bieber and Kim Kardashian.
But that only gave us more time to plan out all the fun ways to make the most of our newly-claimed channel. Think design meets news meets all things yummy, fun and Polish.
Curious? Follow @KissMeImPolish to find out what we’ve concocted so far.
Before collaborating with Water For People on a project re-imagining how the organization’s mission is represented, Kiss Me I’m Polish conceptualized and designed a comprehensive slide presentation to accompany CEO Ned Breslin’s address at the annual PopTech Conference in Maine.
His talk, “Fixing the Water Crisis,” outlines the unique approach of Water For People’s work and stresses the importance of sustainable solutions and projects that stand the test of time. Highlighting the importance of asking the simple question, “Is the water still running?” Ned focuses on why accountability is key in trying to assist communities where new water systems are built.
Check out the whole presentation on the PopTech popcast.

That’s Agnieszka’s saddle (and arm) as documented by WNYC’s Stephen Nessen during the sixth annual blessing of the bikes at The Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine. What a spectacular event that was. And the best part – a grand finale lap *inside* the cathedral.
