Ups and Downs
- Noisy Decent Graphics asks “what’s the first question you get asked when you tell people you’re a graphic designer?” We find it difficult to tell people what we do. We tend to wheel out ‘web-application-software-designer’, which tends not to get us any questions because people have no idea what that means. Mind you, the ‘software’ thing does get us into lots of Mac vs. PC questions, which we’d rather not get involved in.
- Technorati relaunched and is up, and err.. down. I still think it’s as approachable as a group of weird school kids hanging around outside the computer lab.
- 37signals is in Time.
- Robert Scoble reports on the Distrust/Disdain of Google. I think what Google needs to do is cut down on its excursions into every application one can think of. Reading that 37signals article would be a great start.
- Major record labels get another kicking. Hoorah! This time from Trent Reznor, who owes one more album under his current deal. Big tip: release a compilation album or an album of covers. Go talk to Tori.
- Sonos has just announced their Sonos Bundle 130 which now makes their systems relatively affordable. It’s a pity that you still need one player wired to a PC.
