Gesturecons - Multi-Touch Icons

Vector based icons created to aid in the design, development, implementation and promotion of multi-touch interfaces. These icons will aid in the creation of wire-frame documents, digital help files and printed documentation. You can also use Gesturecons inside of your applications in order to demonstrate to users how to complete actions or prompt them to interact with an application when they approach it.”

Glitch

It’s called Glitch because in the far-distant and totally-perfect future, the world starts becoming less and less probable, things fall apart, the center cannot hold, and there occurs what comes to be called the “glitch” — a grave danger of disemprobablization.” Intrigued can’t wait to see how Mr. Burka creative directs what looks to be an awesome project.

Microsoft’s Creative Destruction

Its founder, Bill Gates, is not only the most generous philanthropist in history, but has also inspired thousands of his employees to give generously themselves. No one in his right mind should wish Microsoft failure.” I’ve poked fun at Microsoft many times in the past, but it is sad how they can’t innovate at all. Instead of a long slow Microsoft failure it would be nice to see them turn the ship around. I’m not holding my breath though, and look to them as an example of what not to do with your corporate culture.

Vans and the places where they were.

Over the course of the project the vans themselves have become more and more of a rarity. The reasons are as simple as rust and changing tastes; and as complex as government “cash for clunkers” initiatives encouraging more fuel-efficient transportation. Notably, at the same time these vans have been disappearing from our roads – film photography as a visual medium has also begun it’s slow death. Consequently the goal of the project is to one day shoot the last remaining van on the final frame of photographic film in existence. Then the project will be finished.” Epic.

Comcast now Xfinity

This re-branding comes as Comcast has struggled to rebuild its reputation because of poor service and problems with its network that resulted in telephone and Internet outages. Its customer-satisfaction rating is among the lowest in the industry, but it has improved slightly in the last year.” And a terrible name like this is going to help how?

Football Games Have 11 Minutes of Action

There’s very little actual football in a football game.” I rarely record a game since I can’t stand not watching it in real time, but when I do I’m always blown away by how quickly I can skip through it.

BookBook

Twelve South opens a new chapter in Mac protection with BookBook, a totally original, vintage hardback case designed exclusively for MacBook.” It’s pretty hard not to like everything Twelve South sells.

Priori Acute

Priori Acute is the latest addition to the Priori family. It is the result of a series of experiments into three-dimensional letter form design inspired by 19th Century display and artistic printing types. However, instead of simply adding drop shadows or fake relief to create the illusion of depth, the designers at Jonathan Barnbrook’s studio took their cue from such diverse sources as the angles on the Stealth bomber and the visual conceit in the work of the Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher.” Stunning stuff, and I’ve always had a bit of a thing for Stealth bombers and Escher.
