    Most of us are on the Internet on a daily basis and whether we like it or not, the Internet is affecting us. It changes how we think, how we work, and it even changes our brains.

    We interviewed Nicholas Carr, the author of, "The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains," about how the Internet is influencing us, our creativity, our thought processes, our ideas, and how we think.

  • Local #Crowdsource Alert: @Cardinals Social Media Night T-Shirt Design Contest

    / Comments (1)

    Now granted, some might argue that designing a t-shirt for a social media night giveaway is a harmless competition for the most beloved sports dynasty in St. Louis. And we wouldn't really be against something like that (in theory) per se, unless we happened to read the small print:

    Thanks but no thanks Cards, we're going to throw this one back.

  • Instagram's New Logo

    Old logo

    Stock Billabong Script

    New

    Denver designer Mackey Saturday worked with the team at Instagram to evolve and refine their mark. Here's what he had to say:

    "It was always essential that the design maintained everything that we've all grown to know and love about Instagram —-+ while creating a logotype that was more refined, durable and that positioned the brand for expansion. Looking to the past to inspire the future, the script connects with the nostalgia that Instagram was built from, maintains the important character of the original typeface, and places the brand in a unique and prominent position both in the current and future landscape."

    They've debuted this new mark quite handsomely in a video announcing the ability to tag friends in the updated Instagram App. It makes us feel all warm and squishy and relevant and wishing we had good friends that lived in San Francisco with us.
