I like stickers. When I was little, I had a collection. Now that stickers are associated with all my favorite web 2.0 products, it’s even better!

Here is a sampling of some of the stickers I’ve been finding at events (most notably, SXSW):

My favorite sticker: the social network VOIS.com stickers that let you meet others — which is opportune for a meet ‘n greet (there were plenty of those at South by Southwest!)

Tim Limongello is a clever dude. Several months ago, when microblogging platform Twitter failed all the time, he came up with the concept of the Fail Whale — Twitter’s “unavailable” page had a whale being carried by birds (I never understood that) — and he made sure you saw it even if you didn’t use Twitter.

So is it really a surprise that the Fail Whale phenomenon had its own shirt?

Speaking of which, while Twitter has gotten more stable lately, I’m still running into issues — so this shirt is definitely not still outdated. That said, get your own t-shirt here.

You can follow me on Twitter if you wish.

A few months ago, I posted photos of a bunch of water bottles that I’ve received in the past. Internet marketing firm eVisibility has reminded us how important it is to stay hydrated with this cool water bottle:

eVisibility has done more clever schwag in the past — for the SEOs out there, you would appreciate their awesome nofollow t-shirt.

Next week, Americans get to choose our next president. Hopefully, you’ve resolved to vote. WE Vote 08 is a site that empowers individuals with the tools and know how to make your decision. I hope you’re getting ready to hit the polls next Tuesday.

At a recent TechSet event (that is, a technology meet-up of entrepreneurs and innovators) in NYC, my friend Stephanie Agresta let it be known that she’s ready to vote with these pins:

Are YOU going to vote?
