Pascal Tremblay of Makeshift.ca has created a dreamy, emotive collection of photography and typography entitled Fields for k10k. Reminds me of something between David Carson and Emigre Magazine. Quite nice. * * * Speaking of k10k, I'm buying the brown one. If I could order, and get away with, buying a pink Girly T, I would. * * * On...Continue

Back in town after three glorious days up in the North Georgia mountains. Lots of sunshine, salmon, wine, puzzles, reading, reclining and soaking in a little sunshine. A quiet, relaxing way to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary. While there, one of items I finally had a chance to read was the current issue of Print magazine, which IMO only...Continue

Adobe has won their lawsuit against Macromedia for the company's "use" of a tabbed palette GUI in their applications. Watch out k10k. Those tabs are looking suspect. * * * Tomorrow in Atlanta Music Midtown kicks off three days of music, beer, Kid Rock, and that oh so pleasant smell of sun screen and b.o. floating in the hot May...Continue

Salon has thankfully continued its ongoing investigation into the corrupt pay-for-play record promotion scheme at commercial FM radio stations, but this time the twist is rather unexpected - public radio. If you thought that pay-for-play was strictly a commercial entity, think again. Record promoters have woken up to public radio's massive listener base as a force to help drive obscure...Continue

People are talking about the new Moby CD. I've been trying to withhold opinion on the album, which I've been listening to for about a week thanks to an advance promo copy, and give it a fair listen. Keep in mind that I'm someone who's been listening to Moby since the late 80s, and have enjoyed his many diversions and...Continue

According to a number cruncher over at MacNN, Apple surpased Gateway in unit shipments and sales last quarter. Who's "beleaguered" now? * * * Lines and Splines breaks down the typographical changes in the revamped Wall Street Journal. Choice quote: In the past few weeks there's been a lot written about The Wall Street Journal's redesign. Most of it has...Continue

Somebody has pirated my web site. I don't care if you borrow and modify my CSS files, but this is silly. Oh my, they're also directly linking to the background image tile on my server. Mmmm...that gives me an idea... * * * What to do when your tax bill gets too high? Why, make up an erroneous tax credit...Continue

I updated a few things around here yesterday, most notably the header, the typeface for the main copy (bye Trebuchet, hello Georgia), plus a little tweaking to the comments pop-up windows. Today is rather quiet. Atlanta is thick with humidity, the air is warm, and the cats are starting to lay out L-O-N-G on the hard wood floors. In other...Continue

A few things for you to chew on today. First up, and most importantly (at least to me), today Dominey Design launches a brand new web site for the Budweiser Lowcountry Blues Bash -- a phenomenal two week festival of ‘the blues' happening in historic Charleston, South Carolina. Instead of featuring ubiquitous blues heavyweights everyone recognizes like BB King, Keb...Continue
