I’m not a sneaker freak, but I drooled over these Air Jordan 6 Motorsport retro edition. They are re-releasing the AJ6 at Foot Locker in March.

Ever wanted to know about those awesome glass staircase’s at the Apple Store?

A great line up for the upcoming Australian Design Museum Exhibition. 24 February – 7 March 2010.

The Wired Tablet, this is one good reason why Flash should be added to the iPad… who needs battery life. The Guggenheim’s Contemplating The Void, I love the mesh concept. Architect Daily’s Building of the Year 2009, this is my fav. Overcome Creative/Design block, some good advice from the pros. Massive re-brand job for the BBC, Global Visual Language 2.0.

Interesting read and infographic of the battle between Addidas vs Puma vs Nike. Tiffany Speir, a 4th grader came up with Nike’s “Just Do It”. Also related but in the technology arena, Google vs Apple vs Microsoft. Apple vs Adobe Flash.

Its been a week since the launch of the Apple iPad, I actually got up at 5am to follow the keynote presentation online. There was no surprise because the rumors and speculation that went on for months beforehand killed it. I agree, the name is a bad choice. There’s been a lot of talk about what the iPad doesn’t have, like a forward facing camera, alot of it from people who haven’t even laid their hands on one and looking at it from the wrong perspective.. The iPad fills a gap between your smart phone and your desktop, if you are expecting something more, then this is probably not for you. But you know, corporations are good at selling to us what we don’t need.

I think I’m the iPad’s target market. I use my iPhone for exactly what the iPad is made to do all day, light web surfing, YouTube, email, games, reading news/blogs, looking at photos etc… It’s the perfect in-between device for around the house usage, I can see us looking up recipes in the kitchen, checking reviews for a movie on the couch or even using it as a gps in the car. I’m thinking of getting the low end model to do all of the above when it arrives in Australia. The main feature I am keen on is the iBook and using it to view newspapers and magazines.

I’m not keen on Flash on the iPad, Flash is better suited to a larger screen when its done well. I can see why Apple is not supporting it though, Flash applications would kill the App Store control and structure, Flash based games and media applications would rival what the App Store have. So now there is a four way shit fight between Apple, Adobe (Flash), Amazon (Kindle, ebooks) and Google (Nexus One, Apps, Voice etc…).

I really like the Google Tablet concept. Mad TV – iPad. iPad rips off the bookshelf. iPad PDA-Engine-Bra.

I’m a hoarder, well, I think I used to be now. I’ve uploaded a series of photos (link is a public Facebook album) taken with my phone camera while in the process of moving and unpacking into a new house late last year. They include old little athletics ribbons from as early as year 2. Going through everything I have/had really made me think of how useless a lot of what we keep. I didn’t want to be so heavily chained by it. I ended throwing more than half of this stuff away, only keeping the most sentimental things like old school reports and books. Looking through them brought back many memories and moments that I had forgotten, like how much money I had save with my Dollarmites bank account, $76!
