This Stephen Fraser is the co-founder of Spoonflower, a site that lets individuals print fabric on-demand. By allowing creative people to print their own designs on fabric, Spoonflower seeks to democratize textile design in the same way that blogs democratized web publishing and Lulu democratized book publishing.

His name is not Stephen Fraser, but for an astonishingly broad mix of news snippets and gleans from all over the Internet, check out Cyril's Gleans.

Highly recommended for attention-challenged web surfers (like me).

Stephen Fraser publishes a personal blog called Salutor.com, subtitled dispatches from hipster suburbia. It may not interest anyone but his friends (and perhaps not even them), but the blog generally includes stories related to papahood, quirky pop music, trail running and various other preoccupations of a marketing consultant / entrepreneurial type.
