Many of us owned #89, had buddy’s busted for taking #65 to class, wrote off-color words with #46, and can’t live without today’s versions of #43 and #1.

Through March 31st, folks in Portland, Oregon have the wonderful opportunity to see the animation art collection of legendary animator Will Vinton at the Art Institute of Portland.
Will Vinton, Academy Award and Prime Time Emmy Award winning director/producer coined the phrase “Claymation” for the dimensional form of animation he used to create the California Raisins and “The Noid” for Domino’s Pizza to name just a few.

Microsoft’s leafy corporate campus in Redmond, Washington, is beginning to look like the streets of New York, London and just about everywhere else: Wherever you go, white headphones dangle from peoples’ ears.
To the growing frustration and annoyance of Microsoft’s management, Apple Computer’s iPod is wildly popular among Microsoft’s workers.
I got an email late last week from Jacob Colie, the director of internet marketing for Mercy Corps. He and his web design team were featured on Apple’s Pro/Design portion of their web site for the web team’s work during the Tsunami disaster.
Not only is Mercy Corps entire site designed and built on Macs, turns out the fact that they are served from Macs helped keep them up and running while other disaster relief organization’s servers buckled under the massive influx of web traffic.
Having had the pleasure to work with Jacob and his team for over 2 years as a freelance interactive designer I’m feeling like a proud second cousin that the wonderful work they do behind the scenes has finally been promoted!
Read the full Mercy Corps story here.
Way to go Jacob, Tanya, Stuart and Roger!
