Now that I see Ira Glass his voice on This American Life takes on a whole new meaning.
Stock market. My CFICX hedge (supposed to balance out the S&P and emerging markets downturn) turns out to suck. Thinking of throwing in 200% inverse China exposure.
The power of a triple decker turkey club: after being stuck with a flu shot in my right arm, a tetanus shot in my left arm, and down 2 viles of blood I still went for 2400 meters at the pool. Awesome, just like Demetri says the word.
This is the worst-designed website ever, and they are supposedly a design firm?
Libertarian dorm residents?
Also, according to Ira Glass, this is the best piece of journalism around.
And a website that breaks every design rule, in a good way.
Off to see Free Blood and DJ Spun at The Getty.
Sometimes I find This American Life entertaining, sometimes I find it incredibly annoying.
ReplyDeleteIt always takes me a few days to click on your links and then I generally do one a day (I think I need a few pretty screencaps or something), but when I do finally click I see the thing that you linked to. My favorite thing among many about that design website is their "FRESH HOT FEATURE!" -- evidently the "Home, Events, Subscribe, etc." menu. That is just so fresh and so hot.
ReplyDeleteHey, I have that Miranda July book ("website that breaks every design rule") on my Christmas list.
ReplyDeleteMaye it's a sign that he's a good writer or something, but I could've drawn Ira's portrait based on his voice and it would look exactly like that photo (not that I'd have an easy time drawing the wrinkles in his ill-sitting suit, but the intention would be there).
