Here is a preview video for the upcoming release of Opera Mini. The developers at Opera have always been really sharp, their browser is standards compliant, and usually full of cutting edge ideas. It seems the only reason I can think of people don’t use their web browser more is they initially charged money for it. My good friend Mark Wyner even used a version of Opera along with a Mac Mini to build an amazing kiosk set up. Check out the video below, they do a good job of displaying the functionality and speed of this little beasty. What do you think, if they charge money for it will you pay?
Neil Young Tribute Benefit for Haiti
March 10, 2010
Hey Portlanders! We are working with Someday Lounge (one of the coolest clubs in Portland) to put together this benefit concert for Haiti. We have organized nine really great local bands who will be doing renditions of their favorite Neil young songs, with all the profits going to benefit earthquake relief in Haiti (i’m sure you heard about that right?). you can catch me playing bass with miss Lana Rebel and her crew from various bands. tickets are on sale now and you can get more info from this webpage I set up.
Anatomy and Typography!
March 9, 2010
Sometimes it’s a simple idea and really great execution that results in a pleasing piece of art, other times it can be a grueling exercise of narrowing down shards of ideas right? These pieces by artist Katerina Orlikova combine two things I really love, typography and anatomy in a fresh and pleasing way. Replace the bones in these animal x-rays with elements of typography, simple yet brilliant spark of an idea carried out to fruition. I have to say I’m a bit jealous I didn’t think of the idea first, as I have a pretty large collection of anatomy books I’ve scored at thrift shops over the years. Well earned kudos to Katerina nice job!
