Yotophoto
The first internet search engine for finding free-to-use photographs and images. You can refine the search by image size, orientation and the quite brilliant colour. What they say:
Our goal is to help people locate, remix and republish open and copyleft images. We aren’t just about ‘free stock photos’ for designers, but also about helping educators, bloggers and digital artists find photos they can use without fear of “the man”.
Now stock.xchng is good and until now my main source but…
We (Yotophoto) index various sources of free imagery on the web including Flickr, Wikipedia, Stock.Xchng, Morguefile, Pixelperfect Digital and OpenPhoto.
Go try Yotophoto. It rocks.
Electronic Reusable Paper
Paper which displays like a screen. Origami gets crazy. Blowing your nose educational. Love it as it’s endless! Read all about it.
Hoogerbrugge helps you when your sick
On examining the new incarnation of the design museums website, I stumbled into Hoogerbrugge. A neurotic magician, a flash artist who’s Nails animations are funny and interactively odd. Never heard of the man until now but he’s a director in the wings (one hopes).
I got lost in the design museum though. Accidental discovery is great, is best, but if it’s navigationally intentional with the new website then once again I’m lost.
Crow
An animation, a really nice animation of crows and trees stylised black and white. Slick and stark.
The whole site is beautiful, explore more of the work including the Coke advert. Very talented.
