calvetica - The fast calendar for iPhone
I am digging the heck out of this. A lovingly-designed calendar app replacement for the iPhone which interacts with your existing calendars, so all the lovely syncing goodness of iOS keeps on working.

Tips On Buying Design
Fab essay by Mike Monteiro.
“It’s like buying a melon. Any sample the grocer is handing out won’t come from the melon you’re about to buy. And don’t buy on looks. To really know a melon you’ve got to squeeze it hard at the ends. Also, a melon analogy? Not my best moment. Let’s move on”

ALT/1977: WE ARE NOT TIME TRAVELERS
“I’ve re-imagined four common products from 2010 as if they were designed in 1977: an mp3 player, a laptop, a mobile phone and a handheld video game system. I then created a series of fictitious but stylistically accurate print ads to market them, as well as a handful of abstract posters (you know, just for funsies).” Wonderful!

Popular Science+
One of the things that most excites me about the iPad is getting to read magazines without that deadtree cluttering up our house. BERG have worked with Popular Science to create the first compelling iPad magazine. Can’t wait to see what other publishers do.

Letterheady
I don’t know why letterhead design interests me as much as it does, but I’m always fascinated by it. Random fact: As a kid, I collected “With Compliments” slips.

AOL Reveal Films
I quite like this set of animations for AOL’s new corporate identity. Viewed together like this, it feels like when the BBC reveals a new collection of idents!
