I haven’t posted any original graphic design in awhile, so when I saw Mark Weaver’s work, I knew I’d found something special. Weaver goes for that rustic, DaVinci-esque look that resembles an old philosopher’s sketchbook. He also makes excellent use of color, as one can easily see from the above print. I’d so buy of Mark’s work if I had ...

Say it ain’t so! Brett Brewer, the guy who formed MySpace parent company InterMix Media and later sold it to News Corp., says that Facebook will dominate the social networking war on a worldwide scale. Facebook’s traffic is already overtaking MySpace and MySpace’s appeal is dying by the week. But it’s not just Facebook that Mr. Brewer focuses on: But ...

The New York Times tends to be a pretty reputable news source. So when I read last night that XM-Sirius Satellite Radio is probably going to file for bankruptcy, I felt like absolute shit. Why? Because I recently bought some shares of the company hoping it’d recover by 2011. Apparently CEO Mel Karmazin just can’t get the company to turn ...

I love Joel. I really do. He’s a good friend and when he’s drunk, I try to steal Boing Boing’s bank account number. But alas, our good friend Joel has uncovered a 6MB PDF file that supposedly was used to convince the Pepsi execs to change the logo. Surely you’ve seen those new Pepsi cans, right? Regardless, it seems the ...

Do you read books? Excellent, but what about e-Books? They’re like books, except they are electronic. Don’t you understand the paradigm here? Get with the 21st century, McFly! Yesterday morning, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos unveiled the Kindle 2. It’s better than the original Kindle and just as expensive, costing $359 which will ensure it doesn’t sell like hotcakes. Here’s the ...

Actually, LEGOs invade the hit E! talk show, The Soup, as seen here in Ochre Jelly’s (yes, real name) latest creation. I’m loving the real background combined with the LEGOized Joel. I’m impressed due to the fact that I didn’t ever think someone would want to recreate this hilarious show in the form of LEGOs. I applaud you, Mr. Jelly. ...

After seeing the Eli Roth movie Hostel, I don’t know if I’m going to ever stay in one again. Thank goodness there are braver souls than I, especially the people staying in Jumbo Hostel in Arlanda, Stockholm. Converted from an old 450-seat airplane, the shell of the aircraft has been completely reworked as a full-fledged hostel. The funny part is, ...

Feeling frisky this Friday morning? Fire up Gmail and go to the “Labs” section. You’ll find that there’s now an option that allows you to view multiple inboxes at the same time. In a nutshell, you can essentially create multiple window panes inside of Gmail for viewing things like your inbox, drafts and labels all at one time. Pretty nifty, ...

Wow. I saw the image on Doobybrain and was just immediately blown away. I haven’t played the classic learning game Number Munchers since 2nd or 3rd grade. That’s a long time ago. Lucky for me and other nostalgic nerds, someone was kind enough to port the Apple II version to the web for all of us to enjoy. Need to ...
