“When buying a new computer most people don’t care about its design. Then we have another group of people. The ones that just can’t live with the thought of being just like the average Joe. They want to be among the select few that stands out in a crowd showing off their designer/manufacturing skills no matter how much money it will take getting there.”
72 of The Most Killingest Modified Computers Ever by Richard Darell
Bet you’ve never seen something like these!

“Design can change the world.” This is what I believe in and why I do what I do. To the hordes of sceptics, please pause to view the following video that recall how Sappi is supporting Ideas that matters and how Emily Pilloton – Founder and Executive Director of Project H Design is using her grant, to do so.
She is former Managing Editor of Inhabitat.com, writer, California girl and unwavering optimist, she has written for ID, GOOD, ReadyMade, taught design theory, and lectures worldwide about new social impact imperatives for the product design industry.
Her book, “Design Revolution: 100 Products that Empower People,” is a compendium of and call-to-action for product design for social impact.

Behind the launch of a new publishing house: “When Mandy Brown, Jason Santa Maria and I formed A Book Apart, one topic burned uppermost in our minds, and there was only one author for the job.”
Tagline from the first and newly released title which can be preorder:
“The HTML5 spec is 900 pages and hard to read. HTML5 for Web Designers is 85 pages and fun to read. Easy choice.”
Who would you rather trust? No brainer.

Dang don’t want any of my <stuff> be linked to by and for companies or friends on social networks. Simple Help has made this very brief tutorial available that will show you how to disable Facebook’s latest “has some privacy issues” service, Open Graph.
What is the meaning of opt-in baby? You know, you ask me and I get to choose. Not discovering this after the fact. Made some quick research, to discover that these companies just want to make it easier for us to connect and share.. which they will track with mega server parks.. and a full new wing of tallying geeks to crunch meaning out of our activities.. and all that for nothing?!?!
Because they want to SHARE on the web.. Since when share has become synonymous with profit?!?!
We’re NOT 2 yrs old being taught not to cross the street on the red light here.
Dang. Bang-bang.

Found this (circa 2000) Netdiver index splash page screenshot. To those who have been following since then, or prior, this may pop a rapid eye visit down our communal memory lane. Version 5.2.. Oh my, happy to have come a long way. Those were the days.. no regrets.
Do you remember that?

Extreme Graphic Design Plagiarism by Chris Burns
This is insane! The list of displayed (increminating?) items is simply.. staggering. Picked a couple that gives you an idea. Way more to see.
