Great Site for Inspiration


March 23rd, 2010  |  Friends  |  Categories: Inspiration, Interactive, Online, Social  |  Tags: , , ,  | 

An oldy-but-a-goody:

This is a great site when you either need some new inspiration or are bored of your everyday usual websites.

You can choose your category (I chose Graphic Design) and keep pressing the “stumble” button at the top.  Each time a new site comes up.

You can also add a “Stumbleupon” button to the top of your regular browser to Stumble whenever you feel like it.

http://www.stumbleupon.com/

“As you ‘stumble’ from site to site, you will feel as if you are channel surfing the Internet, or rather, a corner of the Internet that is most relevant to you.” -New York Times

Anonymous Stumbleupon users “favorite” sites in each category, creating a constantly-changing pool of sites to surf through.

The service picks up cool sites, technology, and videos that have gone viral very quickly, and can be an interesting source of information on what people are looking at on the web.

As agencies are increasingly responsible for product design and creation, Weiden + Kennedy London decided to sell their own product on the side: handmade jewelry. A compelling integration of data and craft, the pendants chart commodity prices using the commodities themselves as material. So now you can wear the price of gold for the price of £198.

Programmer Zach Lieberman created a custom tracking software for this interesting piece of Toyota viral. With a camera mounted high above the car, they filmed the driver racing around in circles, swoops, and lines. The car had colored markers that the software was able to track in real time, and the result was a full font set “drawn” by the car.

Did I mention there are 423 reviews, some of which have over 5000 people rating the reviews?
