I'm going home to refold laundry



I needed this tip yesterday. How to fold fitted sheets. Seeing it here, it looks so easy. Thanks Lifehacker.

Revisiting a Throne and a Bike

Earlier I've written my admiration for the Shift Concept Bicycle and the Kohler's Purist Hatbox. Now I've read that both have won 2005 Industrial Design Awards from BusinessWeek. You can see the complete slideshow winners here.

People over Systems

A frequent topic of conversation for my friends involve how well things are designed, and what kind of struggles we've had in the world of commerce. Lately I've found Seth Goldin's blog interesting reading on design and interface, particularly this musing on System's vs. People.

Unspoken, but implied in this piece that great people, who often make good systems, probably undervalue themselves and their judgement. Instead they credit the systems they've implemented.
