have you seen a more perfect picture of modern adam and eve? have you?
blatantly stolen from jlt’s flickr stream, which is usually nowhere near this trashy.
some wise soul recorded house sets in 1984 from the now-defunct WBMX.
leaflets are a great little series of iphone web applications i found out about while at SxSW interactive last week. it’s a series of single-focus applications for the iphone that takes existing content and reformats it to be more usable on the iphone’s smaller interface.
while this goes against notions of using the web as is, it helps usability. i almost didn’t use these apps because the site owner’s presentation struck me as old-fashioned ( “people don’t want images in mobile content” was actually said)—but his implementations are fantastic.
the new york times is suddenly more readable when reformatted with the leaflets app. there’s an RSS reader (although i prefer the functionality of newsgator mobile, leaflets’ interface is a joy to use) which beats the dot mac reader all hollow, a flickr interface which makes following your flickr feed activity much simpler than flickr’s own mobile interface, and several other bits of content for people who care about things like social news and baseball.
kaze to desktop is a beautiful screensaver which brings you closer to your immediate environment by blowing your desktop in the same direction and manner as your local weather.
in india, there is a newspaper which is handwritten by calligraphers.
i have no reason to find this as hysterical as i do.
typographica’s released their annual best list of faces for 2007; clicking for hours. Of all the best of lists, stewf and JLT’s is the one to pay attention to. their taste is impeccable.
françois sagat is a beautifully cartoonish exaggeration of everything the french symbolize: evil narcissism, sexually insatiability, lover of extreme beauty. see for yourself at his own site.
