Nicholas Felton who recently published the 2008 edition of his amazing Feltron Annual Reports, has also created an invite-based site named Daytum allowing you to track your own personal data. A couple videos describe the functions built so far.

Lots of neat stuff going on at the Make Something Cool Every Day Flickr group.

Since the holidays started I’ve been repeatedly asked what the heck I’m doing in California. That’s why I’ve put together a second blog for my design work, which I’m simply calling Studio Blog. So far I’ve been trying to recap my first few months, but when I get back I’ll be sure to update regularly.

I’ve been patiently waiting to see the process behind the Obama campaign’s graphic design. This two part interview of Sol Sender explains a lot of the background behind the logo. I loved seeing some of the initial concepts.

Gary Hustwit’s new film Objectified — a movie about industrial design — certainly has a grander scope than his excellent foray Helvetica, but will its appeal be any greater? The thought of a feature-length documentary about a typeface inspires dread in most sane people, I’m not sure objects will sound any better. That said, I hope we can agree on how fantastic the logo is.
