Take a look at the newly introduced Windows Phone 7, I am drooling over the beautiful and clean interface, the emphasis in typography and grids. I think Microsoft has actually out-Appled Apple.
Do you often find yourself having nightmares about:
Holding down the space bar and not being able to drag when you’re surfing the web?
Trying to explaining for the millionth time what CMYK stands for?
Loosing your custom collection of filters and brushes?
Lined paper not having rulers on the top and side?
CTRL+Z not working?
Or looking out at the sea and thinking “I wonder who used ocean ripple?”

“Companies spend millions trying to differentiate their brand from the others. Yet a quick look at the logos of major corporations reveals that in color as in real estate, it’s all about location, location, location. The result is an ever more frantic competition for the best neighborhood. Here’s a look at the new blue bloods” – Michael Rock, Wired Magazine.
Remember those days of watching scrambled porn and under-buffered online videos? Well, those days are over. But you can still relive them with Kanye West’s new video for “Welcome to Heartbreak”
Can’t get enough of this vid. Wonder how much production went into this (or how little).
One of my favorite sites, Last.fm is getting ready to roll out a new redesigned website. The new beta version of the site is looking very fresh. Imagine if Facebook and Last.fm got married and had kids, that is what the new site looks like. There is more emphasis in the music player and sharing of music with friends. All the information is more neatly organized and easier to find. The shoutbox has also been made bigger and placed at the bottom of all your charts, very similar to Facebook. And how can I forget the news feed ala Facebook style too.
Last.fm’s blog stated:
“Three main concepts driving the UI and feature development for this next-generation Last.fm are: play music, share music, and add music. We’ve focused on making these three things easier for everyone to enjoy, even your mum. You’ve probably noticed the robust new player at the top of every page—hopefully no more digging around for play buttons and radio stations, and music pages are re-positioned for sharing that music with a friend, or saving it to your library.”
The new design is looking very promising. It is still on its early stages and will go through many changes before it is released. Last.fm is also looking for user’s input to make it better, so make sure to check out the beta version once you log in to your account.
Apple just introduced the new redesigned iMacs with a new brushed metal look and a couple of hardware changes. The new design design mirrors the metal look of current Apple displays combined with the glossy screen and black border of the iPhone. Of course the new iMacs are much much slimmer and faster than its predecessor. Along with the new iMac Apple released a redesigned slimmer keyboard with the same metal look to it and what seems to be the same key design as the current Mac Books. Of course just like any Apple fanboy I am already drooling over the new iMacs, I have been meaning to get a new computer and been thinking of getting an iMac, I think now it’s the best time. Did I mention my birthday is coming up *ahem, ahem*.
