There goes Your Morning : I Love TV Intros
As previously expressed, one thing that I absolutely love is typography in video, whether it be movie titles, television bumps, etc. I Love TV Intros is a online collection of just that-tv show intros, organized by decade and alphabetical(!). I get really nostalgic about my childhood tv favorites, so this was just a real treat...

The Beatles : Rock Band
So, like most every other American, European, Canadian, or some one with access to a radio or another human being, I become a fan of the Beatles in middle school. I was 12 and had just watched “A Hard Day’s Night” at my grandparents with an older cousin. And at that point, I knew that...
Co-Op Stamp : Belgium 1970
This is a great find from over at GrainEdit: a postage stamp promoting ‘international coopertaive alliance” from Belgium. Three cheers, this is awesome. I love the repetitive style and the orange used. And I’m pretty sure that typeface in the orange field is a straight rip-off of the ABC logo designed by Paul Rand in...
Rockin’ Robin DTV Music Video
As a small child, I always loved the DTV (Disney TV) music video specials they would show on ABC or around the holidays. So many pop songs, so many random mashups! Anyways, I was bumming around on BestWeekEver today, and they had this DTV Video to the song Rockin’ Robin, and it’s actually very intertaining....

Illustration : Ward Jenkins
Warm, fun, and great illustration and animation work by Ward Jenkins out of Portland. Ward has been doing animation and illustration for a long time, working in both Atlanta and Portland. I just love his style. It’s very mid-century style illustration but with a warmth and personality that I really dig. Definitely check out the...
Cartoon Modern : Fifties Animation
Animation and illustrations from the 50s through the late 60s probably have to be my favorite style of all time. I just dig all of it–the colors, the line work, the angles….Just awesome. Anyways, Cartoon Modern is a great little blog that follows the development of a book of the same name that shows and...

Sesame Street Animation @ Hulu
Over on Hulu, you can watch a bunch of Sesame Street clips, which is sweet. But what is even sweeter is that they have a BUNCH of their animations, which just totally made my days. These where always some of my favorite parts of the show as a kid QUESTION: Does anyone else get this...
Look what I found…
Ben Gibbard * plaid shirt + John Krasinski / Celtics = best Last.fm photo ever. You’re welcome.
I don’t care who you are…
This is hilarious. Thank you, Doogie Howser. I really needed this.
Tiger Woods does it again…
Over at TinyGigantic, a great design blog that usually leaves nothing to the imagination when it comes to ripping someone a new one or giving their thoughts, posted an interesting blurb today 1. about the idea of dialogue in branding and marketing and 2. about what I think it a really funny ad with Tiger...
