An actual printed box for a Nintendo DS game called Imagine Babies. I could care less about the game, but I sure do love that they were too cheap to even purchase the rights to the image of the two babies on the bottom-right! Last time I checked, an image on iStockphoto would run you about $12 for a print quality version.
And a couple of other things that I find humor in…
Boasting over 15,000 people a day signing up, and over 1,000 companies already using the service. Interesting idea. If you’re wondering how they’re going to make money, they are betting on the fact that companies will be more willing to use them to find competent candidates than paying a headhunter.
I used their quick calculator to see what a suggested interview price should be for just a straight graphic designer: $210 per interview
If I could just figure out how to wrap all of my roles into one nice little title, I might be able to forget about working and just work at getting companies to interview me for a living. (via)
Since I post so much here, I’ve decided to start a new addition to this blog. My, Of course / Why? section will be just kind of a thumbs up/down of things I come across on the Interwebs.
Of course: Will have things I find interesting/good/fun/worthwhile.
Why?: Should include anything that makes me question the motives/thought process/build out of most anything.
I might include descriptions, and then again I might include nothing at all. And with everything else on this blog, this may never happen again.
Probably one of my most favorite websites ever. And a fantastic display of all your talents on your own projects. Not easy to do. Once in, use the menus at the top of the Flash. Of course: http://www.mediaboom.com/
