4. EasyWriter, v1.0, Seller: Wellbeyond Inc.
by Saxorama
EasyWriter makes it easy to write emails using a bigger keyboard in landscape mode.
The iPhone's Mail and Notes applications can only compose messages in a vertically-oriented perspective, with the keyboard just a footnote at the bottom. EasyWriter kicks you into landscape-mode, freeing your fingers to amble luxuriously across the wider letters. Just open EasyWriter, turn your iPhone sideways, type your message, choose your recipient, and click Send to Mail.

7. LinkedIn, v1.0.2, Seller: LinkedIn
by LinkedIn
With more than 30 million users representing 150 industries around the world, LinkedIn is a fast-growing professional networking site that allows members to create business contacts, search for jobs, and find potential clients. Individuals have the ability to create their own professional profile that can be viewed by others in their network, and also view the profiles of their own contacts.
The app features four different sections: the main page, connections, search, and status: The main page of the iPhone app displays a news feed that shows updates from your LinkedIn contacts - things like whether they've updated their profile, changed positions, asked a question, added a new contact, etc. The "Connections" section displays your LinkedIn contacts in a way that's very much like the iPhone's built-in contact list. From the "Search" section, you can search for contacts by name, keyword, title, or company. The "Status" section allows you to update your LinkedIn status, which many people use to announce what they're working on. Others have this hooked up via Ping.fm or a similar app so it's updated with their latest tweet.

This project is about controlled restraint. Previous versions of this magnetic structure project were about freedom. I pretty much let the particles do what they wanted. This go around, I am introducing specific rules to families of particles.
For example, Big particles, you will slowly gain mass until you lock into place and you are capable of attracting small particles. Each of you must remain a fixed distance from the center of the world and must try to spread yourselves out as evenly as possible
Small particles, you will repel each other while the big particles attract you. If you happen to collide with a big particle, you are now locked to that particle and must remain 50 paces from its center at all times. Oh, and you must also remain 250 paces from the center of the world at all times.
Id love to be able to make these so they were 3D printable. Mmmmm, metal casting...

2008 uge 50
En uge, syv dage, syv udstillinger.
København #2 : Pressemeddelelse
Nous poursuivons notre triptyque danois par ce deuxième volet qui s'attardera davantage dans les quartiers pittoresques. Partant du Børsgraven puis du Nyhavn, canaux animant le centre-ville et bordés d'édifices historiques et de maisonnettes aux frontons colorés, nous remonterons la Bredgade, majeur axe rectiligne et désuet investit par les antiquaires, reliant le cœur urbain au Kastellet, citadelle au pied de laquelle est échouée den Lille Havfrue, la Petite Sirène, pas aussi ridicule que le disent les ragots, triste figure mélancolique isolée sur un industriel horizon portuaire fumant. Tout le parcours est bien-sûr ponctué de manifestations participant à la délimitation de cette scène copenhagoise que nous cherchons à appréhender, stimulée tant par des artistes internationaux que des natifs locaux et élargie dans ce numéro au design et à l'architecture. Notre mot de la semaine accompagnant l'intitulé de cette chronique, malgré l'évidence de son préfixe, demeure fantastique lorsqu'il est prononcé par l'employé d'accueil d'un lieu d'exposition et est à traduire par communiqué de presse.

Into The Blue
Into The Blue

This is a view up the more than 60 meter high tower of De Inktpot. The ceiling your are looking up to is at 45 meters. The upper part of the tower is a water reservoir. The inktpot is build between 1918 and 1922 using 20.000.000 bricks. The building is designed by G.W. van Heukelom for the Dutch Railways. The blue light in the top is daylight shinning through blue windows. All the other light is artificial.
Normally you cannot enter the building, but today it was Open Monumentendag and ProRail, the current owner of the building opened the doors for the public. So, I brought my tripod and positioned myself in the middle of the hall. While I was on my knees preparing this shot about 50 or more people were gathering around me. Not to see what I was doing, but the hall was also the starting point of the guided excursions that were given today.

The Collaborative
“The Collaborative” is a newly born project that thrives on the collaborations between artists and creative companies, whether visual or graphical. Basically it’s a concept of “works that are created by people together”, collaboratively rather than individually.
The first Collaboration is a result of a conceptual idea developed by model and stylist Michelle Warneke, produced by photographer Mike Van Cleven and completed by 12 different visual and graphical artists. The result is a collection of 12 creative images of models, of which each image was passed on to another creative artist who considered the image as his/her blank canvas. In collaboration with Ou-Vert & Print International the works have been bundled in “The Collaborative 09 Calendar”.
Mike invited me to join The Collaborative for their first project. A joyfull assignment: "I'll send you the RAW image of one of the 12 modells I've shot in a series for my promotional calendar which I send out every year. All you got to do is cover up the naked model with some artwork — so she's not totally nude anymore..."
In just a little bit more time and the 09 Calendar will be printed and ready to send out. If you’d like to get your hands on one, feel free to drop Mike an e-mail at thecollaborative@mikevancleven.com
Mike is giving out a couple of these calendars to whom send us an e-mail with “TheCollaborative.be” in the subject line.
Don’t forget to mention your complete address and why you want to be the proud owner of one of these babies!
Oh and before I forget: Merry X-mass to you all !

Video Gaming Trends
Video gaming is now a bigger industry than DVDs, box office revenues, movie rentals, music or even books. Mario killed the Ringo Starr, but you probably didn’t even know it...
via Advertising Pawn
Playstation is my favorite gaming platform and the line of thinking behind the PlayStation’s advertising revolution serves pretty well as “the ideal disruption case study”, focusing on a more adult audience and embracing is irreverent underlying philosophy. They don’t filter advertising. They mock it. Hence the switch of focus from pure product appraisal to the actual outcomes resulting from its usage.

TeleGeography's new Global Internet Map draws upon their annual Global Internet Geography research to provide a unique view of the world's Internet backbone architecture.
The map's global projection traces the intercontinental links between the countries of Europe, Asia, North and Latin America, and Africa. Regional close-ups provide insight into key routes within each region. Nine accompanying figures and tables present valuable data on Internet bandwidth by country, regional and global Internet capacity growth, backbone providers, traffic by application, wholesale pricing, and broadband user growth.
