Pingmag has yet another interesting article, this time about the hand drawn typography that can be found on signage in Bali. I’ve always found amateur or non-designer representations of type to be quite fascinating.

Mr. CityMen are really cute animated characters that are composited into real life footage. Super rad.

Radar has an article on a crazy dude called Winter who has made it his mission to visit every Starbucks and drink coffee at each one. I think he’s wasting his life away, but hey, if that floats his boat, more power to him.
The primary rule is I have to drink at least one four-ounce sample of caffeinated coffee from each store. The store has to have actually opened for business; I can’t get there the day before, when they have friends-and-family day and they’re giving drinks away—in many ways that’s kind of arbitrary. It has to be a company-owned store, not a licensed store. I have to drink the coffee, but there is no time limit on when I have to drink the coffee. But the longer I go without drinking it, the greater the risk that I might lose it. There are two stores I need to go back to in Washington State because I didn’t finish the coffee—I lost it. I took it out of the store, I had it in a cup, and in the middle of the night I forgot I hadn’t drank it all and I used the cup to relieve myself.

Can’t remember how long ago you opened that bottle o’ sauce? Now you can stick the nifty DaysAgo gadget on stuff and it lets you know how many days have gone by since you activated it. Useful and Re-usable, but it could do it a redesign, it’s kinda ugz lookin.

The urban gnome may not be as colorful as your typical garden gnome, but sure does pack a more contemporary style punch. Actually, he doesn’t even resemble a gnome much. More of a blob. But he looks perfect for fans of vinyl toys and such and such.
