I was searching for “business card ideas” the other day and one of the top Google results was at creativebits.org, an entry titled Cool business card designs. There’s some awesome examples of samples collected. I hadn’t thought to think that far out of the box before. Amazing ideas. Check it out if you need some inspiration for your own identity project.
P.S. There’s also a Part 2.

Alright, so I hadn’t read through the entire magazine yet. One more article from this month’s WIRED Magazine: Futurist Ray Kurzweil Pulls Out All the Stops (and Pills) to Live to Witness Singularity. Sorry, I just think Kurzweil and his ideas are incredibly interesting. Throughout high school and college, I chose to write several papers on him and his visions for the future. For more on Kurzweil, check out Kurzweil Technologies.

This month’s WIRED Magazine had some really great articles (as usual). Among my favorite reads this month was WIRED’s Geekster Handbook, a Field Guide to the Nerd Underground. The six categories were as follows: The FanBoy, The Music Geek, The Gamer, The Gadget Guy, the Hacker, The Otaku. Although there are parts of several descriptions that I could associate with (The Music Geek and The Gamer), I have to say The Gadget Guy (or Girl 
) description fit me pretty much all the way:
4. The Gadget Guy - Disposition: Sociable while waiting in line on launch day; ferocious in comments on Gizmodo. Seemingly unflappable in the face of early adopter’s remorse (aka Apple Newton Syndrome). Beliefs: I can fix that. There’s no god but MacGyver. The price will drop in a month, but I need it now.Turn-Ons: Unboxing videos. Backup batteries. Blue LEDs. Laser pointers. People who RTFM. Things that make loud clicking sounds. (Quoted from forementioned WIRED Magazine article.)
Thank God for shiny electronics.

Alright so I actually will be updating my blog now. For anyone who came and visited, I apologize for the page links that led to blank pages. Or the default WordPress “blogroll.” Those have been changed to sites that I visit on a regular basis and that I find helpful in keeping up to date with the digital world. I will add more pages later…for now, I have added a link to my portfolio.
