Common Craft has a lot of these videos. The one I know best is the explanation for twitter.
They’ve released a new one explaining the electoral college.
I found this site to be interesting. Quick, but thought provoking.

I have to admit, I spend a lot of time looking for random finds on Ebay.
Usually I look for DEVO collectible items or Vintage Mickey Mouse t-shirts.

Objectified: the new Helvetica
Gary Hustwit just announced the follow-up documentary to last year’s Helvetica, which brought public attention to the obsessive world of typography.
I’m quite excited to see that Andrew Blauvelt is listed as a contributor; we were lucky to interview him for Issue 1 of Fill/Stroke magazine, as well. He must be very busy these days. Read more. →

Dapper Pipes: Aggregating your job search.
What’s that you say? Dapper pipes sounds like fancy plumbing and you want nothing to do with this article now? Well, give it a second.
With how today’s economy is going, it’s increasingly difficult to find jobs.

Look at that tagline. Once you read it, you know that this site is going to be terrible.
IncSpring is a site that lets you sell unused concepts, contest entries or “new ideas” to interested parties. It is basically a garbage heap, recycling center of ideas that clients didn’t want, or the designer couldn’t pull off. It is a grab bag of unwanted, thoughtless brands.
Oh, and its ruining graphic design.

David Horvitz wants to do stuff for you
Have you ever wanted someone to sit in silence and think about you for one minute? Have you considered how much your life would improve if someone would just mail you a rock from the Hudson River in Upstate New York? Has anyone thought kindly enough of you to consider mailing you a photograph of the sky for every day in 2008?
If you are willing to entertain answers to any of these questions, it may be well-worth Read more. →
