That ole grey Moleskine AIN'T what she used to be

Dude do not buy a moleskine book expecting the same quality you got two years ago.
Because they are worse!
They are now totally made in China so the people in Italy don't even touch them anymore.
But wait there's more!
Even the cover that was their signature thing is now processed and made in China so it's a poor plastic representation of what used to be an awesome book covering. 
Also you may notice their are more competition to the moleskine line well that's because they are all made in China now...
So pick your design books carefully designers, although their pretty much all the same now anyway.

A new twist on the old book!

 This is a great new product for any designer or sketcher.
The thing that is interesting to me is to find products that I tried to get my company to make and they tell me no or that's not a good fit. And then I see them on the market months or years later....
Still check it out below

iArmy - THE Podcomic


My latest insert in the fray of podcasting has arrived today in the form of a comic. But not an ordinary comic. It's a webcomic in a podcast, I call it a PODCOMIC. In the podcast iArmy I have created characters that I voice and I enjoy them, and thought they would translate well over into print or video. Enjoying to do comics and such I created these on post-its and put them in a book then scanned them in for enjoyment. I will be posting one a week and have a better explination of these in my latest DESIGN-Episode#29 (to air on Friday).

PS3 Slim is too hot for teacher


My nephew informed me yesterday that his friend bought a PS3 Slim last week. So I said thats cool does he like it.
He said no it overheated and stopped working.
I was like dizam buddy what happened.
He said that it does not have a fan and when it gets too hot the thermometer tells the system to shut down. And the system did not shut down. His friend tried to return it to both the store and Sony both telling him that they will not take it back because it has water damage.
Editorial:
WTF! Why would Sony cheap out and replace a fan with a thermometer? Because I have an orginal PS3 and that mother gets hotter than a eskimo in Florida on Spring Break. And then for the store and Sony both to say that oops it has water damage so we can't return it. That's so BS I mean did they think that the kid was playing with it in the tub durring bath time or something, it was only a week old.
Is anyone else having this problem... Someone better get to the bottom of this.

UPDATE: I was corrected there is a tiny fan (oh well). They should have consulted Tim the Toolman Taylor on this.
