I promised a few people over the last fortnight that I would mention their work on my blog. They both deserve a bit of a promo here, each for very different reasons.
   The first is the namesake of a high school friend of mine, Ian Baillie. Ian, formerly in the marketing game himself, is the inventor of the Shelli wheelchair. The Shelli is hand-pedalled and lightweight. If you can help Ian get the word out, hop round to his website at www.shelliwheelchairs.com.au.
   The second is plain fun—not quite as noble as Ian’s effort but those of you born before, say, 1979, may appreciate this. Michael Maloof is trying to get Nike to make the sneakers from the film Back to the Future Part II and believes grass-roots is the way. At The Official McFly 2015 Project, you can sign a petition.
   I have my thoughts on Nike, though I do believe the venture to be a fun one for Michael and those who would like to see Michael J. Fox’s character’s shoes in real life, now that it actually is the 21st century. Posted by Jack Yan, 00:45  permalink
