September Mix
This is supposed to be a scheduled post that should be published in September—the month which I anticipated to be the busiest month yet. And it turned out right; I was ‘away’ from my cyber backyard for a couple of weeks while being occupied with plenty of outdoor activities which kept me away from the net and my macbook in general.
Okay so this post came late, simply because I hit the Save instead of Publish button after setting a post date. Well anyway.. Here’s some random stuff from my little interestingness jar. Enjoy!
Oh, the video clip at the end of this post, Talamak by Toro Y Moi, is best experienced with stereo headphone.
Onigiri!
Pass on the smile! These photos are simply the perfect *temporary* anxiety remedy..
So.. Who’s the manager of DyNasty Buffet? We need to get it fixed real quick..

Smart ads
I saw this photo of smart advertisement which cleverly make use of its medium to communicate the message across. Notice there’s not even a single word necessary to communicate the designers’ idea to the ads viewer. This reminds me of some creative ads I posted last year where a tangled electrical wire is smartly used to illustrate messiness.
Aviary
There were plenty of web-based graphic editor/manipulation sprouting a couple of years ago. The choice was pretty much limited to a few web applications offering free account with adequate image editing. Things developed rapidly and what seemed cool on a particular moment could be quickly transformed to the thing of yesterday.
Enter Aviary, a web application suite offering integrated image manipulation, color scheme composer, vector editing, and more. Comparably capable–if not more–than most web-based applications for image editing, Aviary is growing rapidly and gaining popularity. It beats desktop application like Adobe and Corel in terms of portability and availability, allowing its user to save the files at Aviary’s server and work on them from any computer with modern web browser.
Check out this video for a quick intro to Aviary. Better yet, try Aviary yourself!
