The new mark for Leno’s show is exactly what you’d expect in a short timeline: uninspiring, plain, and clumsily executed.

Very cool new Adidas shoe designs: The Star Wars Collection. Available January 2010. I’m leaning towards the X-Wing or Millenium Falcon inspired designs. Which one is your favorite?

I dig the design of these “Umbrellas for the Civil but Discontent Man”. If I had my pick between the three, I’d definitely choose that ‘Masterful Samurai’ (middle one). Which one would you pick?

Simon Aldous, Microsoft employee, the other day in an interview with PCR:
One of the things that people say an awful lot about the Apple Mac is that the OS is fantastic, that it’s very graphical and easy to use. What we’ve tried to do with Windows 7—whether it’s traditional format or in a touch format—is create a Mac look and feel in terms of graphics.
Translation: “People love the way Mac OS X looks, and Windows looks like a turd, so we tried copying OS X a little more this time around.”
Yesterday, Brandon LeBlanc, Microsoft Employee, rebuking Aldous’ comment on the Windows 7 blog:
An inaccurate quote has been floating around the Internet today about the design origins of Windows 7 and whether its look and feel was “borrowed” from Mac OS X. Unfortunately this came from a Microsoft employee who was not involved in any aspect of designing Windows 7. I hate to say this about one of our own, but his comments were inaccurate and uninformed.
Translation: “Fuck, Simon, don’t actually say that to people.”

Good Strategy. Make the your office space more inviting than your own home. Check out the new Facebook Headquarters designed by Studio O+A. I would love to work in a place this beautiful.

I love me some good design. This concept clock is quite ingenius. Simply tilt the clock to set it to the appropriate daylight savings time. Unless you are in Saskatchewan, then this clock would be usless to you.
