Thanks to Pandora, I’ve recently discovered Amos Lee. Where have I been? Oh well, better a latecomer than never getting to hear this.

MEMORANDUM

FROM: Jim Wesson (EVP, Enterprise Sales)
RE: Design Critique of New Eagle Brand Letter Head Design
Sandra (and all),
First, many thanks to Renée for forwarding the new designs to everyone on the company list. Sandra, I know you were reluctant to get input from everyone, but I think we all can agree how important it is to get lots of eyes on something as important as the new “Eagle Brand Enterprise Stool Cover, Inc.” letterhead. I think it was in an in-flight magazine that Rim Coolhouse recently said “BRAND IN DESIGN IS DESTINY IN E-COMMERCE AND BRICK MORTAR.” Although that might have been the Guy Yamaha guy with the world change book. Not important.

Okay, first hour of 2009 and already the Internets have shown me curious and wonderful things. The videographer called this “Machines That Almost Fall Over” Okay, I like it from an artistic standpoint.. although I’d be hard-pressed to assign any rational meaning to it. I think I would have called it “Machines That Waste 62 Seconds of Your Time” or maybe “Machines That Wobble But They Won’t Fall Down”.

Curiosity about life in all of its aspects, I think, is still the secret of great creative people.

Another good read by Mindy Wagner over at Web Designer Depot on mood boards for web projects..
- #As the ubiquitous (and crappy) IE browser begins to wane in popularity, it's increasingly more important for developers to focus on cross-browser development. "Works on my machine" just isn't a suitable answer anymore folks.
- #Wow. I'm amazed at the "process" the SDSU logo designers had to endure and just how little they were paid to deal with it. A designer's nightmare for sure.
- #I always wondered, but now I have confirmation that baking is gay.
- #Who knew the history of the "Honka Hoota" bike horn was so compelling? Those Australian synthetic material trees must have been a godsend...
- #I don't know what the point is or why I even found it noteworthy... maybe it's all the hoopla around the cheese carving or maybe it's just the dork that's carving it up. Is it art? I guess. Either way, it was an interesting way to kill a couple of minutes. Watch the video.
- #Sadly, Carnegie Mellon Professor Randy Pausch passed away this week. If you haven't already watched his "Last Lecture" you're missing out. I would definitely recommend taking the time out to watch the video or maybe buy the book. It's great stuff.
- #Who would have thought you could have so much mindless fun playing with a spider? I'm so easily entertained some days...
- #I've always been annoying, but a chance to make an easy $350 to be someones nemesis is just too hard to resist. Sign me up please..
- #Okay kiddies, turn on the way-back machine and lets go back to 1989 for a look at the original Photo-Shop version 0.87 icon.
