“The Toronto Star unveiled a radical remake of their Sunday paper today, becoming much more magazine-like… I’m sure a lot of editors will be watching how this works. Especially those south of the border where many newspapers are losing Sunday circulation and are scrambling to figure out how to stop it.”

Lots of discussion here: “A long time Airbag reader and friend of mine has decided to cut his chain to the corporate desk and push out on his own to live the American dream. For those of you not familiar with this term, I’m looking at you Pierre, it means my friend has decided to start a business. And to kick this all off he’s decided to give away an Apple iPod Shuffle… ‘So, you’re basically looking for a cheap logo? $100 bucks or so? What a nice way to devalue the talent and skill of the design profession. These kinds of ‘competitions’ always rub me the wrong way.’”

“Ta-da makes it easy to… Keep track of all the little things you need to get done; Make lists for other people (co-workers, friends, family); Share lists with the world (’My favorite movies of 2004′); Subscribe to your lists in RSS so you’re always on track …and more!”

“In my new position Iíve got to think a bit differently than Iím used to. For the most part I really enjoy that. As you may know, or if youíve read my stuff for any amount of time, Iím into questioning convention. At the end of the day, Iím also very practical, so I try things out, see what works, and what doesnít and adjust my thinking and way of working based on that. Recently Iíve been thinking about Information Architecture conventions and processes. One of these is the traditional hierarchical site map used for many sites.”
