Fantastic collection of honest logos. 

The “Preview” one is probably my favourite.

Magic Cable Trio, A Three-In-One Connector USB Cable → laughingsquid.com

This is genius. It really needs to be on my desk come January.

Greatest Video Ever → youtube.com

Sorry internet, but the competition for “best video ever” is over. 42 mintues of Gordon Ramsay chewing out contestants on Hell’s Kitchen. 

How good is it? Let’s put it this way: the first clip ends in him kicking a door open, Men in Black style, and forcing the contestants to walk out.

Greatest. Man. Ever.

The Greatest Website Ever → vimeo.com

Probably illegal. Maybe fair use. Regardless: all your favourite little Simpsons quotes in one convenient location for your Facebook/Twittering pleasure.

Jackpot!

Zeitgeist 2011: Year In Review → youtube.com

Well done Google. A fantastic look back at the past year (with surprisingly decent motion graphics for a company known for their poor design skills).

Regarding Retouching → corneliaklimek.tumblr.com

Please, please photographers. I beg you. Stop trying to fix your bad images. Take them as a learning experience and hide them away never to be seen again. Do not edit them to be completely unrecognizable and pass them off as you having amazing photography skills. That is a lie. You are a retoucher at that point, a photographer no longer.

A very dear friend of mine (and insanely talented photographer) weighs in on her opinions about Photo Retouching. Very interesting points here. Well worth the read.

Free Audiobooks Anyone → openculture.com

Many are for Public Domain books, and appears many are read by average-joys (rather than professional readers) but free is free!

A Brief History of Santa Claus → blog.cgpgrey.com

We all know Santa Claus exists (except to you Scrooge’s out there) but this year I was curious as to the whole history of how he began.

Thankfully C.G.P. Grey was there to answer all my questions.

Funny how that happened…

Apple Siri Ad features Santa Claus → youtube.com

Well, I won’t lie, I miss the Rudolph style “Get a Mac” ads, but this is too cute to not love!

Baby, baby, baby, oh GOD MAKE IT STOP → tumblr.thedailywh.at

Charitable Torture of the Day: Two seniors at Evanston Township High School in Illinois had a rather novel — if patently inhumane — idea for raising $1,000 to help a popular student hangout spot that was going under: Play Justin Bieber’s “Baby” over the PA system over and over until students coughed up the dough.

The Saved By The Bell-esque scheme proved successful: Despite having a whole week to raise the money, it took Runzel and Chatz only three days to reach their goal.

Really? This is news? Our school did “Stop the Bop” for years (MMM-Bop by Hanson incase that wasn’t clear) and raised hundreds if not thousands of dollars…

Oh well. I guess anything to do with the Biebs is newsworthy.
