Caffine and Calories

This was created by a designer, David McCandless. I'm trying to get a summer internship with him in London. I found this graph he created after I researched him a little more. He runs the website www.informationisbeautiful.net which has several other brillant pieces he's made.

This is another cool website. It has to do with the z-space discussion. The website starts with scissors cutting out the website, and then you "walk" into an elevator. It's an advertising website, and the point is definately clear.

This website reminded me of our discussion on Wenesday. I believe this was created with flash. The animations at the beginning of the website are very interesting. The stand out since the background is only white. Also the scroll at the bottom of the website is cool. It scrolls as if it were an actually circle

This music video is very interesting. The objects in the music video become alive with the music. What's also interesting is that these toys are not from 2000's. They are all from the 90's and back.

This movie looks very interesting. Pixar is making it look "old-school" like Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer. The movie is in stop-motion. It definitely looks worth seeing.

ACLU Sues Churubusco High School for Punishing Girls Over Racy MySpace Photos

This news report refers to the troubles of social websites during a conversation earlier in the year. I think it's relevant to place in here because there is a court case rising over these high school girl's behavior and on whether or not it's an invasion of privacy. I would like to see what happens with this case.
