		<title>Quotes on Design</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m compiling a few quotes on design for a project and ended up with a collection of my favorite. If you feel like the passion for design has been sucked out of you, read a few. Also, I&#8217;m loving all the visual quotes RichWorks post. “If you can’t solve a problem, it’s because you’re playing [...]]]></description>

		<title>25 Not-So-Random Things &#8211; UPDATED</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My previous post was about 25 Not-So-Random Things I was a fan of in 2009. To be honest, a few were a little embarrassing! Not surprisingly, my tastes have changed a bit in two years. Here is the updated list of 25 Not-So-Random Things I am a fan of in 2011. 1. 2009: MIA; 2011 [...]]]></description>

		<title>25 Not-So-Random Things</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Remember those silly notes going around on Facebook a few years ago? Where you write 25 random things about yourself and tag 25 friends, or something like that? I just ran across my version, 25 Not-So-Random Things I endorsed back then. Maybe my next post will be an updated version&#8230; 1. MIA – a phenomenal [...]]]></description>

		<title>The power of &quot;Scared&quot;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Scared is such a powerful emotion. You would think it&#8217;s there to protect us, but it ends up hurting us more often than not. How many times have you decided not to do something, just because you were scared? I&#8217;m not referring to skydiving, fighting zombies, or eating sea urchin. I&#8217;m talking about life&#8217;s big [...]]]></description>

		<title>Boy Paints like Master</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you want to be a famous painter, you have to die first. Then you might get the recognition you deserve. At least that is what my art history teacher once told me. I&#8217;ve always wondered who the next Picasso or Van Gough will be. Will we recognize their talent, or will they go un-noticed [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why does life move so fast?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[2009 seems to have flown by. Rightly so since so much happened in the last 12 months. I was hoping that time would start to slow down, but it seems like each week goes by more quickly than the last. Yesterday I ran across a post by Jennifer Hohn which points out that as a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Like the Plastic Bag Scene from American Beauty</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I absolutely love this video by Rob Chiu. Scenes of nothing have never been so beautiful. The desaturated colors mixed with the high contrast and vignette induce a crazy contradictory feeling, kind of a creepy calmness you can get lost in. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twtxsdQScwI] Here is another captivating video from Rob: Webby&#8217;s Gala Opening Sequence 2008.]]></description>

		<title>Calvin and Hobbes Snowmen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve always been a Calvin and Hobbes fan. The snowmen themed comics are perfect for this time of year. Here are some favorites: A few interesting facts: the pair are named after John Calvin, a 16th-century French Reformation theologian, and Thomas Hobbes, a 17th-century English political philosopher (from Wikipedia); there are 17 Calvin and Hobbes [...]]]></description>

		<title>Loving This New Google Ad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This promo for Google Chrome is so endearing! The harp music makes the video seem dream-like. I love the unconventional methods of showing Chrome&#8217;s features. It makes Google Chrome more personal and sucks you in from the beginning. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SC-2VGBHFQI&#38;feature=player_embedded]]]></description>

		<title>Operation Chokehold &#8211; iPhone Users vs. AT&amp;T</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you haven&#8217;t already heard, some disgruntled iPhone users are setting up a coup against AT&#38;T to happen this Friday. The anger stems back to a comment made by AT&#38;T&#8217;s Ray de la Vega regarding the amount of broadband consumed by smartphone users. Supposedly around 40% of AT&#38;T&#8217;s broadband is sucked up by just 3% [...]]]></description>

		<title>Optimistic Venn Diagram</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love this fancy venn diagram by Wendy Macnaughton. It really puts things into perspective. Although it seems there should be a section for things that don&#8217;t actually happen. Our big fluffy comforter not getting back from the dry cleaner in time for my Dad&#8217;s visit this weekend&#8230;that falls under &#8220;Everything you suspect might happen&#8221;.

		<title>Why Do We Love Liquor Packaging?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BECAUSE IT&#8217;S BEAUTIFUL! Why is liquor packaging so amazing? Its different than print and web. Its three-dimensional, we can touch it and interact with it. It can be viewed from all sides. In most cases, its mostly transparent, an effect that is hard to replicate with print. Also, liquor is a luxury item. We don&#8217;t [...]]]></description>
