Well
I sure feel like I have been under a rock the last year or two. I have,
so to speak with an old computer and a modem that was slower than my grandmothers
driving, I never surfed. If I did, it was with Lynx and usually to the
newssites.(Until they all suddenly got anti-textbrowser
friendly) I was busy running mailinglists, so I was on the web, but
not "on the web". Meanwhile this whole weblog thing happened.
And what is a weblog? Essentially it's the same as someones personal waste-of-space-homepage
in 94, cept with far better design in most cases and regurlarly updated
(hopefully). So when I found one, which linked me to another one, and
to another one, I had a sense of Deja-Surf.
This
is not an entirely bad thing if you think that. When finding personal
pages and links, back then as now, you get stuff from a certain angle
and revisit the ones you find funny or good, or both. It makes a great
change of pace to all the commercial dull sites out there who lack that
personal touch, link only to other commercial sites, and generally sink
your browser with heavy stuff, not to mention those annoying ads.
28-03-00 Goodmorning!
It's Monday! Casting went well thankyou! But right now I'm concentration
on being a regular Martha Stuart. *ha!* I'm baking an american
style coconutcake from a box see. And failing miserably! All I had
to do was add three eggs, but I somehow managed to that wrong. It looks
very flat. :))
I
can't belive the "your
day as a burger-worker" is still out there! The first time I
saw it and surfed it must have been eons ago, if you count it in internettime.
:) Just goes to show you, that a good concept actually does last
There
is no better cure for boredom than to watch Kubbar.com-"The
best source of arabic songs on the internet". Heck, they even
managed to make their "logo" retro-cool in total seriousness.

26-3-00 The Coca Cola Spacecenter
That is the subject for a horrormovie.!!!
Speaking
of logo's. Coke's logo, the script font that is, is really ancient, and
all the old stuff looks nice.
I just wish they would stop redesigning the cans and bottles every two years.
They always come out worse than they started.

Thought
I'd share one of my sigfiles now that I am on the subject. Time flies.

Goodmorning.
I stumbled on to Steves
logo hell, note his logo, and the swirly
logo page thanks to the earlier mentioned Swoosh
page. You'd think that designers would catch on after a while. Swooshes
and circles have been done. Should we blame it on adobe
Illustrators simple spiral-tool? You know the thing, it's under the
same button as the simple star-tool. Perhaps that's what this
designer used.
