Sustainable Swift Industries – more than Handmade Bike Bags

Posted November 3rd, 2009 by Michael Janzen and filed in Bikes, Green Product, Sustainable

While watching a video on Rowdy Kittens I learned of this little bike bag company in Seattle that makes handmade bike bags. It’s an excellent example of how real people can find their own economic freedom through doing what they enjoy in spite of a tough economy. Really inspiring story and great bags!

I spotted this on twitter via @rowdykittens and learned that tiny house folks like Dee Williams sleep on these mattresses. Knowing that we spend so much time sleeping in bed makes me think that the next time we buy bedding we should look at companies like this.

This is totally cool. It’s a chart that tracks trends in the economy and shows where they should be and where that are today. I spotted it on a RowdyKittens tweet twitter. Check out the Economic Recovery Dashboard.
