Seattle's Best Coffee - New Logo Design

2010-05-20T17:47:00.003+08:00

From this article by Joe Lynch of Yahoo's Personal Section, came out the old and the new logo design of Seattle's Best Coffee.

Comments said that the new logo looks like a bowl with tears, or a logo of a blood donor center. But for me, first time I saw it. I thought of a canned soda's top view. The Coca Cola soda in particular.

Fitszu Who?

The company behind this lovely match. I thought this is too much work for a match because matches cannot be expensive (and this one costs $48) and well, they'll just burn away. But hey, look at that beauty.

So Happy New Year, boys and girls! Be careful lighting up that firecracker with this match.

Astig: Pixlr Online Image Editor

2009-07-23T15:51:00.005+08:00

So you don't have the Adobe Photoshop (PS) installed in your personal computer (PC) but you need to edit an image? Or you have it in your PC at home but you're some place else right now and the unit you're using doesn't have the program installed? Fret not because you can always edit online.

You can create a new image, edit an image from the PC, or from a website -- all you need to do is specify the URL so that Pixlr, the cool online image editor can fetch the image.

It has an interface that is very similar to Adobe PS, pretty much functions the same, and uses the fonts installed in the unit you're using.

You can try this cool stuff at Pixlr.com.

Fine Wine

2009-03-06T19:35:00.000+08:00

Here's a rockin' wine rack from Sebastian Bergne. As featured in one of my most favorite websites, it is a

New work by Sebastian Bergne that centres around wine will be featured in an exhibition called CRU, opening at the Aram Gallery in London on November 28 and running through January 10. Wine brings people together and the concepts presented in this show further enhance the social experience. Corked is a series of decanting and serving vessels that combine the traditional glass and cork in new formats like the Trousers glass after the jump. Geo Cork is a multi-pronged pin that serves as a connector for corks and works both as a plaything and a measure of consumption. Among the pieces on display, there is a Vintage Dip line of t-shirts, a case that can be used as a rack, a wine diary for samples and the conical Marcel wine rack above.

Enjoy your wine! :)

Japanese: Too Damn Cool

2009-03-04T14:57:00.000+08:00

I bet no one else can do this but them. Click to enlarge photo, and make sure to look closely at the picture (held by the guy in red). There's a man playing hoops, suspended in the air.

You have to be really stoned, or too damn cool, or a Japanese to have thought of a composition like this:

Tracy Chapman has a new album, released in the US this November.

Heard her single "Sing For You" last night. Recognized her voice at once. Wished she had a new album.

And yes she does! :)

Healthy Burgers?

2009-02-09T15:30:00.000+08:00

I learned from Yahoo Health's "Eat this, not that" that there are healthier burgers at McDonalds, Wendy's, DQ and Burger King than a certain burger at TGI Friday's.

I was happy to learn that there are affordable and relatively healthy burgers found in the fast food chains.

But that's in America. America is more strict in health and food standards. Here in the Philippines, though these accessible fast food chains can give us the burger fix that we need, these burgers are probably all the same - oily, fatty with a lot of MSG.

Quit Smoking Ad

2009-02-04T13:23:00.000+08:00

We also have a campaign that feels like this. It's a Dimetapp ad along Katipunan Road. Right? I'll try to look for it :)

Evian Water

Would you believe that this was in 2005? Almost half a decade ago, a new bottle shape came to the world of advertising.

And this is what they called "a breakthrough bottle for a mineral water":

Look Inside

2009-01-20T13:13:00.000+08:00

It says "LOOK INSIDE". When the doors open, you would see an ad about the Body Worlds 2 Exhibit. It was last year, I guess.

The ads and the real campaign/s of the Bodyworlds are really cool. Though at first glance at the photos above, they can be mistaken for a smoking ban campaign. Right?

Ikea Philippines

Did you know that there's an Ikea here in Manila? And there are two branches. One in Anonas and one in Katipunan.

Cool, I know! :)

Another one from Sebastian Bergne

2009-01-06T15:49:00.000+08:00

Bergne often reinvents an everyday object, but does so gently and quietly. Rather than dazzling us at first sight, his designs are intended for long term use. According to Bergne, “It may only be that after using a product for several years that the quiet functionality, quality or reliability brings a smile of satisfaction.”
