Staff member Anthony, dropped in his Design Your Own Vans entry today at C4tv. Lets hope he wins the trip to L.A to see a huge skate competition and get his shoes made at Vans. The competition closes tonight, so if you think you can design a pair of shoes in a day give it a crack.

Commandshift3…vote for your favourite.

Commandshift3 is a website where you vote for your favourite website based on design only. Two sites appear on your screen as snapshots, you simply click on the one you like the most, two more are shown, you vote again, and it goes on forever. They call it a battle.

Whether you need some inspiration for your next site, or just want to see the best and worst as voted by visitors, or just pass 5 minutes. We submitted endemicworld.com about 4 months ago. There were about 5000 sites back then. Now there are over 13000.

So to brag just a little, we think our site rules, and so do the users on commmandshift3. They even think its #5 in New Zealand. So check it out, if our site goes into battle with another….you know who to vote for.

endemicworld.com was designed by Studio Alexander. They rule, thanks SA.

 
 

Creative Statistics Presentation by Chris Jordon

I don’t really know what to say after watching this. The statistics are quite disturbing, the message is very compelling… but I posted it because of the creative way in which Chris Jordon has presented the statistics.

TED is amazing, sign up to the pod casts and you will never watch TV again…
