I’m In STEP! Aug 29, 08
In the last month’s issue of STEP Inside Design, their closing column, Room 650, issued a challenge to rethink Corporate logos. Given the political season, I thought it might be fun to rethink the RNC logo, so I mashed it up with the old Sinclair logo, fired it off to STEP and promptly forgot about it.
Flipping through this month’s issue (Sept – Oct), I was pleasantly surprised to see my logo gracing the pages.

Kanye goes soft for the Champion video. The running scenes are great.

Testing Flickr’s new slideshow functionality… it feels a lot like SlideShowPro.
Stealing My Thunder* Aug 20, 08
For those who hang on my every sporadic word via a feed reader, you may want to take some time to peruse the new site. I’ve put a fresh coat of shellac on the little bugger, with special attention paid to the popular fonts and portfolio pages.
My goal was to push the boundaries of traditional web layout and apply a magazine-style grid to bits of the site, which was relatively easy to achieve with the help of the handy Blueprint CSS framework. I’m especially happy with the outcome of the 96KX and IBGreek pages. As time allows, I hope to push the blog format in this direction, too (à la JSM).
In Other News
Never to be outdone, IDEO beat me to the punch by about a week with the launch of their new site.
They’ve done an superb job of bringing a massive amount of fascinating content to the foreground while maintaing an easy-to-use, eminently browsable interface. Inspiring all around.
*regarding the title of the post, totally kidding.
