Colour Lovers
(19 August 2005) - Colour Lovers is exactly that, a community of creatives dedicated to color. Users create profiles and then submit colors and palettes for each-other to review. It may sound overly simplistic, but it's surprisingly habit forming. Especially when needing a little diversion while in a design-stall. ...

Serious Stencilers
(03 August 2005) - When we stumbled upon Stencilry, what we found was not just a stencil website, but something like a community of D.I.Y. fanatics. This livejournal-based site serves as both a resource and a gallery for stenciling enthusiasts. Those looking to make shirts, stickers and street art will find a wealth of fun designs to use (they've got damn near everything), and those who'd rather create...
Recently Needled
(02 August 2005) - Marisa has a few great posts today over at Needled that are must reads: An artist profile of Leeds based Steve Byrne who's also a painter and architect and has an incredible style. An update on gallery shows in New york and Connecticut. A preview of the Seattle Tattoo Convention. ...
Nom de Guerre
(01 August 2005) - New York art and fashion collective Nom de Guerre launched its new site just days ago in preparation for the release of its Fall/Winter '05 collection. Their first-ever foray into menswear will feature what the company calls "utilitarian luxury-basics," fashionably simple shirts, sweaters, scarves, and slacks. The subculture-obsessed group, whose flagship Manhattan store is a former Black Panthers hideaway, will be opening up shop...
Needled
(25 July 2005) - It is with great pleasure (and a bit of pain) that I announce our newest site, Needled. Edited by the fabulous Marisa DiMattia, Needled takes a look at the art of tattooers, on skin and on canvas. It also looks at the culture, politics, and laws affecting tattoo art. Needled understands that body art aficionados cannot be put into neat boxes: they are lawyers...
Google Moon
(20 July 2005) - To Honor the 36th anniversary of the first manned moon landing Google has given us Google Moon. Using the Google Maps interface you can pan and zoom across the moon's surface and view the locations of each Apollo landing. Zoom in all the way for a silly little surprise! Thanks, JGG! ...
PostSecret
(14 July 2005) - Frank Warren initially started this as an interactive art piece. PostSecret is a blog in which people anonymously submit their secrets on handmade 4 x 6 inch postcards via snail mail. Although some of the submissions are very humorous, others are very sad and some politically incorrect. Not only does the work evoke strong sentiments or even memories from the audience, but it also...
Spellcaster
(22 June 2005) - Spell With Flickr, a fun tool from the script-savvy Kastner, allows you to piece together words in classic ransom-note style without the hassle of scissors and paste. The code scours the Flickr archives for photographs tagged as letters and then randomly reconstructs your desired text as a mixed-up montage....
Airtreks
(17 June 2005) - Booking multi-destination international flights just got more fun (easier and cheaper too) thanks to Airtrek's recently launched TripPlanner 5.0. Their flash-based map brings hi-tech visual logic that makes planning a trip feel more like a fluid video game than competitors' frustrating pull down menus and pop up calendars. Mouse navigation zooms and pans across continents, enabling users to add destinations with a simple click....
Missing: Since January
(07 June 2005) - This is not a typical game. Consequently, it doesn't have typical game packaging. Missing: Since January is a puzzle game where the user attempts to solve the mystery of a journalist and his companion's disappearance, (hence the keyword, missing). Using Windows and the Internet for game play, users have access to 300 real and fictional websites to help with the investigation. Users also receive...
Puma Summer 2005
(24 May 2005) - I'm a big fan of Puma's summer line--the designs are totally progressive, and they're trying new stuff--which is admirable. All shoes and clothing aside, their Summer 2005 eCatalog is just brilliant. It's easy to use and works from the point of view as if you were reading the catalog and turning the pages with your own hands- a very nice marketing touch, and fun....
The World Chico Exhibit
(13 May 2005) - Exhibit", where they're featuring photos, designs and artwork from up and coming or already established artists around the world. This work is by Carole Debois from Biarritz, France. They're looking for submissions, so if you're an artist, illustrator, or photographer looking for some exposure give them a shout. ...
The History of Sampling
(09 May 2005) - The History of Sampling is a visual map compiling the history of music sampling from the jazz greats through the latest hip hop sampling, and everything in between. The interface is pretty impressive, it's all an interactive timeline and you can mouse-over albums to see the links between them. It hosts an incredibly impressive amount of data, and equally impressive user interface. via Data...
Guess-the-google
(06 May 2005) - The team that created Guess-the-google reverses the process by picking the keywords for you, and then you have to guess what keyword made the image up. It's totally challenging, and quite fun. ...
Finnish Import: Husky Rescue
(27 April 2005) - If you like long dark winters; salty, hairy fish and tall blond people, you'll adore Country Falls by Husky Rescue, the latest import from Helsinki. Like Morcheeba or St. Etienne before them, Husky Rescue makes beautiful atmospheric music with a hint of country thrown into the mix. At times upbeat and peppy, a quick shift in the music takes you to a darker place...
13 Favorite Links
(26 April 2005) - Many of you have asked what sites I read regularly. The truth is that I track a few hundred of them using RSS. With that much information, it's easy to overload so I maintain a list of 13 must-read sites for those keep-it-simple days. I've just added those 13 to a 'favorite links' section on the right side of the home page. Favorites change...
The Zoom Quilt
(25 April 2005) - There isn't much you can say about this collaborative art project called "The Zoom Quilt", you just need to see it for yourself. Take a look, and you'll be impressed, and you'll understand why it's so hard to describe. The project allows you to zoom in and out of what seems to be an infinite world, presumably graphics all done by different individual artists....
Epic 2014
(14 April 2005) - Robin Sloan and Matt Thompson have put together a pretty interesting vision of the media circa 2014. Basically they see all media becoming totally personalized and decentralized, driven by individual personalities and intelligent filtration systems. And of course, it's all enabled by Google and Amazon. They may take it to a bit of an extreme, but they certainly summarize a direction many of us...
Google Maps Meets Craigslist
(13 April 2005) - In my mind this little utility is simply just a genius mix. The cross pollination of two of the best resources available on the internet-- Google's new mapping service, and the classified listings page, Craigslist. This utility lets you surf both at once-- you can select city, price range, and drag along a map while seeing icons representing apartments for rent or sale. It...
Seat Guru
(06 April 2005) - You don't have to be a savvy flyer to know that the exit row has the most leg room in coach. But did you know that there are a dozen power plugs scattered among the coach seats on a 777? Do you know which seats on an A300 are next to the stinky, noisy lavatories? Enter Seat Guru, a site dedicated to all the...
Bape World Coming Soon
(31 March 2005) - Japanese sneaker and street-wear brand, A Bathing Ape has launched their web site at bape.com, but nothing seems to be there. Well, that's not entirely true. There's a splash page with a big download button. I downloaded the file and ran it (with some hesitation). Immediately my firewall went off as the app tried to contact its home server. I let it thru (with...
