The New Graphic
We’re lucky to work everyday with Michael Cina.
He recently launched a new project, The New Graphic, and featured some work he did for the Dance and Electronic music website Resident Advisor. Good stuff, all of it.
Fan Mail
While I was back in Michigan for our team Summit, we got this in the mail.
We sent some Free Dabrye tees, as well as some stickers for him and his classmates.
Cinemagraph
I’m kind of obsessed with the Cinemagraphs that Jamie Beck and Kevin Burg are creating. @theresag and I took some pictures over the weekend, and I tried making one. Not a super original idea, but I think it came out nicely.
Hacking Gmail
I’m teaching another Gmail/Email productivity class this Wednesday at our offices in SOHO. 7pm. There will be beer.
