2009.07.01 "Driven"
I love this. I love Lance Armstrong's story, and for years I have proudly shown my support for him, The Lance Armstrong Foundation, and all those living with cancer and its impacts. What an inspiring person and video. #

2009.06.20 "Good Musicians Copy" ~ Authentic Boredom
A great write-up, and another good example of a principle I agree with. I seek inspiration from all sorts of places, and am glad to see it's not a new tactic. I think this carries over to so many other aspects of learning and improving. #
2009.06.12 Design*Sponge » wedding bells + cute invites
I really liked this wedding invitation, although it could have been a bit shorter. Nice layout, and usage of Futura. #
2009.06.01 ‘Up,’ Inside and Out - Interactive Feature - NYTimes.com
We went and saw this movie today and thought it was fabulous. I really enjoy Pixar's films, and this was obviously no exception. I enjoy how well they document their development, just like in this piece about four of the characters. #
2009.06.01 Lou Romano: Art of UP
The last time I really got into a film was for The Incredibles, and it was mainly due to the stuff like you see on this page... particularly the Color Script Act I section. Be sure to click on the pictures to get a better look. Fabulous. #
2009.05.25 Kids Albums from the 70s - a set on Flickr
Another late one, but I really enjoyed this record album artwork. There's something... I don't know... uh... random, or unique, or I don't know. I can't really put my finger on it. I just really like the contrast between the current design styles and the older design of this era. Don't forget to check out the article about them. #

I really like these illustrations. I'm not sure if it's the vintage feel of them or what… but I dig 'em. #
2009.05.05 Asbury & Asbury: Desperately seeking Hanna
Great illustrations and an enviable style. Best of luck to them in finding out more info about the artist (which is actually the point of the entry). I just liked the illustrations. #
2009.03.14 Bob Staake - Totally Amazing Posters
A collection of mid-20th century posters collected by Bob Staake. At first I was captivated by the collection, and then I looked at the rest of his work (auto-playing music :P). If I were actually talented, this is the type of work I'd love to call my own. #
2009.01.26 Welcome to Hogan's Alley!
For over 60 years, cartoonist and illustrator Roy Doty made his own Christmas Card he sent to friends and colleagues. This interview talks about him, them, and shows off some of his work. I think its a great tradition (that of home-made Christmas cards). #
