I recently found the book ’Unuseless Japanese Inventions’ by Kenji Kawakami. You have to admire the absurdity and creativity of some of these inventions: Cat dusters, grass toilet seats, high heel training wheels. I’ve picked out some of my favorites from the book to share with you.
I had a chance to stop by the Apple Store today to check out all the new sparkling goodies that were recently added to their lineup. I’ve been a bit disappointed that they didn’t have the magic mice out for sale, but they did have them hooked-up (literally) to some of the iMacs. I had a chance to play with one for a few minutes and managed to snag some pics and video.
In this quick tip I’ll show you some font identification tools to help you find that special font.

I have to admit that I have a thing for mice. 
I’m always on the go and usually have a mouse and a laptop in my bag just in case inspiration strikes up an impromptu design session. I have owned all sorts of mice that have faithfully served on both Mac and PC, but I’m ready to throw them all away for the Apple’s new Magic Mouse…
Question of the week: Is it better to specialize in a specific area of design, or to be a jack of all trades? Where do you currently stand in this spectrum of design? Currently pursuing a niche? Or are you knowledgeable in many aspects of design?
