Her prose is endearing with advice like, "If you're lucky enough to romance someone with breakfast in bed…do not bring kale."

Aaron: Mobile Phones: Copying the Copier
Apple vs. Samsung. Who do you think should prevail in this legal matter?

Design heads might fine themselves reflexively plumping for Apple in this case. They should think hard about what it would mean for Apple to drive Samsung from the market.
Alejandro: Ring Ring, Can You Hear Me Now?!
Call Parade is an ongoing free public art project which has taken the streets of Sao Paulo, Brazil by storm. 100 artists have been paired with 100 street-side phone booths giving them a free reign to transform the hooded fixtures into anything imaginable.
