This was once a blog where I shared many, many things, most of which were awesome. Somewhere around fall 2009, I got a big-kid media job and no longer can keep up with this old thing. There's some good stuff hanging around here though. You should check it out.

Flash Photo Viewers from AIRTIGHT INTERACTIVE

One of my most favorite things in the world are Flash elements that just simply do their job.  Elements that can wow you with just the ultility of their design, the ease of use, the power of the simple functions.  And most of all, I love when these things are free, downloadable, easy to maintain,...

Illustration Thursday:
6 Vintage Illustration Sets on Flickr

I ran out of time putting this together yesterday, so here’s this week’s  Illustration Thursday: Vintage Illustrations, especially that from the 1950s-early 1970s, are some of my favorite things.  The style, the use of line work, the color, printing process-it’s just all awesome.  Anyways, I’ve put together a list of some of my favorite vintage...

Visualizing with handmade paper graphs the frequency of words, topics, and phrases in notes from childhood, Dear Gretchen is a fancinating and visually stimulating book put together by Gretchen, INC.  Amazing.  Check it out. PS: Her site is beautiful as well.  Cheers!

Urban Exploration : Steve Duncan

I am a coward and klutz.  This, I know.  And I think that’s why I thoroughly enjoy the bravery of others when they risk falling and tetanus to take photos of abandoned places.  Urban Exploration is an obsession/photo project by Steve Duncan where he explores such places, from New York to Paris.  His photos are...

Look what I found…

Ben Gibbard * plaid shirt + John Krasinski / Celtics = best Last.fm photo ever. You’re welcome.

Scanwiches

This. Is. AWESOME. Dude + Scanner % Sandwich = Scanwiches! The name alone made me laugh/want a sandwich.  There is something strangely stunning about a stack of ham on a roll, smooshed onto a flat bed.  Cheers!

Secret Lives of Comic Store Guys (& a Girl)

I work on computers for a living; I love robots; I can (do on a frequent basis) have conversations about HTML, CSS, C#, and the cons of Vista; and I also revel in exciting anticipation between MacBook releases. But there...

Web Design Wednesday:
Indianapolis Museum of Art

The Indianapolis Museum of Art, which has had the pleasure of being awesome for over 125 years, has always been one of my favorite places to visit in the grand ole city of Indy.  And after thier massive renovations in 2004-2006, the museum not only holds a great collection of art but also looks just...

Moustache Plank : Mr. Zygote

This made me laugh out loud:  Taking an 8ft plank of wood, affixing a moustache, and creating “hip & knee” joints, it has become one cool wooden friend.  Way to go, Mr. Zygote. Found Via It’s Nice That.

Abandonments : Otto K. on Flickr

This may sound odd, but one of my most favorite things to do is look at pictures of abandoned buildings on Flickr, especially photos of abandoned schools, factories, or mental institutions. I could and frequently do, spend hours online looking at said pictures… And over on Flickr, Otto K. has a fantastic collection of 22...
