Pocket Sized Sketching Power! Sketchbook Mobile now on the iphone!

2009-09-22T02:34:33Z

For those of you who don't know, I love Sketchbook Pro by Alias. I actually did a review on their 2010 Pro version for the PC- You can check out the full review here! You may also see me using Pro version in the video below. But today my friend Mike brought the Mobile application to my attention. I am so excited that I'm blogging about it before I actually use it. I must say, it looks great. They've fit all the good stuff into a pocket sized version. Check out the video above for some sample images and how it works. There is a free version and a $2.99 version. I just bought it with-out hesitation, I mean COME ON, it's Alias Sketchbook we're talking about! I just wish i had a stylis for my iphone.

What's Apple Upto Now?

2009-09-20T09:35:15Z

I was just doing my routine Apple.com visit when I noticed that the site is down for an update! This can mean only one thing; Product Updates.

Here is what I'm expecting;

1. Imacs are due for a redesign! I know it sounds like it's too soon, but I feel like it's going to be one of the updates.

2. Apple Tv just got a price drop and the 40 gig was discontinued. This can only mean a serious upgrade and also some software updates.

3. Possibly some LED monitors other then the 24"

I'll keep you posted!

MailChip's New Monkey and 32 Other Rebrands

2009-02-01T06:15:15Z

Rebranding is a very exciting process. I have great admiration for any designer that's willing to take the challenge. You are usually up against many years of history, a well rooted strategy and folks that are just not willing to let go of the past.

Here are 33 companies that took the challenge and did great! Ofcourse there are a few that should have stayed where they were! Click here to see the other 32 Rebrands >>

Update on Skout.com - They Redesigned!

2009-01-30T07:14:29Z

As promised by Skout Founder, Christian Wiklund - the homepage of Skout.com has been redesigned. I feel that some great improvements were made, and at the same time some elements took a turn for the worst.

Here are some notes on the design. I'll just break it down quickly from top down.

1. The heart + the target icon. Completely out of place and doesn't match the forward thinking idea of the site. The illustration is more of hand done classic look. It's also a bit misplaced, throwing of the balance of the homepage. It also pushes the logo to the right quite a bit, creating another distraction and imbalance.

2. The text menu isn't aligned with anything, so it's a bit float and out of place.

3. The Login, Signup and Search buttons are overpowering in essence and underwhelming in execution.

4. I like the use of the slide show to point out what the site does. It's a great add.

5. The buttons are so big and bright, the search section of the site underneath sign up looks like an after thought.

6. A little more work on the boxes that carry the phones and member could go a long way.

7. Use of a more updated phone would freshen' things up a bit.

8. I would love a shot at this home page!!

With these points said, I really appreciate the fact that they are trying to move forward and it seems like great design matters to Chris and his wonderful team.

I Found My Next Ride! The 100 MPG Aptera

2009-01-29T07:18:37Z

I'm a sucker for anything designer. I've thought about buying a Toyota Prius from time to time, but with a lame name and that less than attractive body, I opted not to. Now comes a designer electric car called the Aptera. It comes in two models; The first an all electric in 2009 and the second an incredible 300 MPG hybrid! You can find out more on their wonderfully designed site. The logo typeface is really unique, but I've seen the icon be done many times, in various ways. I think DataPortability.com had a very similar one that had to be taken down because of a C&D letter.

Anyways, I think I'll be in line for one of these bad boys. They require only a $500 deposit to hold one for you! So what are you waiting for?
