Design Refresh

Here it is, yet another redesign. Although I think this one will last a while since I’m getting a little burnt out on doing them. I’m going super simple this time. A single column layout with a clean aesthetic design.

I’m going to try and focus and posting more of my own content and less of the video embeds and random links that I’ve been posting lately. Which was a bit of an experiment on my part.

Anyway, here it is. I’ll be making tweaks here and there as I grow into the design and start adding content. Oh, and that photoblog I was all hyped up about a week ago? Yea, that’ll probably be taken down and supplemented with this new design. I’m not liking the feel of my content being spread on several sites so I’m bringing it back under one roof. Well, as of this week I am.

Steve Jobs on Paul Rand

“I asked him if he’d come up with a few options. And he said “No, I will solve your problem for you. And you will pay me. And you don’t have to use the solution; if you want options, go talk to other people.””

Conversations with Paul Rand

“You never call it art. Art is if you’re lucky.”

On Yongo

My Media-Hive comrade Mr. Jon Sykes has released his latest child into the world. On Yongo. A place where people can post pictures of their business cards. And not just any old business card (well I guess you could post that to), but business cards that say something. Business cards with personality. Business cards your proud to give to your mom (even though your Mom is proud of you just for having a job that requires a business card).

Rumor has it that this is the first in a string of Sykes ventures. Stay tuned.
