“It’s my world, my way.”™
It’s the time of year people are in the market for calendars and this one caught my attention. Life Calendar is a novel way to track how each day of your year went. Every day is represented by a emoticon. You draw it in at the end of your day based on how it went: [...]
This idea makes me tingle! Whoever thought this up for Pilot deserves some serious kudos and here’s why: they have taken a product, in fact a behavior, that has become outmoded and made it available in our digital world.
Remember choose your own adventure books? You know, the ones that make you the star (and if you screw up you just backpedal a few pages)? Well, the popularity of the style may be lost to all but nostalgia and Goosebumps collectors. But why wouldn’t the concept work now? Ok, let me restate that; why wouldn’t it work with social media?

An article about the evolution of cartography sparked me to do a neemee search of “MAPPING” and my hunch was right…. We have captured A LOT of really cool thoughts on this subject from all life categories (DESIGN, ENTERTAINMENT, TECHNOLOGY & WELL BEING). I decided to log this under Deity Complex – because it really [...]
Last week we ran across t-shirt company i/denti/tee that makes t-shirts printed with song lyrics that start with the letter i.
