I’m probably more psyched for Objectified than any other film in the last few years. Gary Hustwit, director of Helvetica, speaks to industrial designers ranging from Jonathan Ive to Karim Rashid to Naoto Fukasawa, all designers I admire in my fantasies of moving beyond the digital design realm.
The trailer was just released today:
Objectified: A Documentary [...]
With friends, I tend to tone down the geek talk. Mostly because by talking about things not tech related away from the day job it reminds me that I’m a real person with interests outside of the web.
One thing I will talk freely (and perhaps geek-ily) about though is the convergence of TV and the [...]
I just returned from a quick getaway to Ottawa with the lady (via Porter Air, which despite some delays returning, I highly recommend).
Great news upon my return too including the Raptors handedly defeating the (healthy) Houston Rockets, ImageSpark getting warmed-up for it’s launch and my Theory shades arriving; a sweet Christmas gift courtesy of Liz. [...]
A Merry Christmas to you and yours this holiday season!
The folks at Nike would probably like to remind you to stay off the roads during bad weather conditions, especially if you’re wearing the new Zoom Nike Kobe iD editions, because you will blind the shit out everyone and cause a traffic pile-up.

BlogTO comes through with a top 10 of the Best Bibimbap in the city . The Korean dish is a personal favorite and something I didn’t even discover in Toronto, but in Las Vegas of all places, at a 24-hr Korean resto on the strip, across from Circus Circus. (All class, I know).
Newsweek talks about how the right app at the right price is making some serious coin for iPhone developers. We’re talking six to seven figures in less than a year. The real story is how Apple, using their learnings and successes from the iPod and iTunes eco-system, have built an incredibly ubiquitous and low-barrier distribution [...]
I twisted my ankle something wicked last Sunday playing ball at Hoop Dome (which by the way has some serious runs on the weekend if it’s worth the drive to you). Hence I’ve been hobbling around, using elevators and trying in general to just focus on work and not on blogging, reading or other tasks [...]

Well, I know. But you may not.
The point guard position on any NBA team is the quarterback. The floor general. At the point, you’re calling plays, creating them by design and inventing them when all else fails. It is my favorite position in basketball. Any big with soft hands and fancy feet [...]
Geoff Teehan walks through the latest preview of Image Spark in this video.
I’m growing pretty excited about the site as we continue to test and and make fixes to the alpha version.
Post a comment if you’d like an invite to the upcoming private beta release.
