今天我做得最有意义的一件事就是给公司同事下班前放了一遍《Home》。自己也又看了一边,18名同学接受了普法教育,效果显著。相信你也会有时间周末抽出2个小时,塌下心来好好看一遍。我相信你看完的感觉一定和我一样:这个片子应该在尽可能多的场合给尽可能多的人看到!

HTC‘s Horace Luke On Design As Storytelling

星期一, 八月 23rd, 2010

HTC‘s Horace Luke On Design As Storytelling - Forbes.com:

“I tell my teams to measure a storytelling of 10s. In the first 10 seconds they have the phone, do they understand what they are getting? Then the first 10 minutes: Is it easy to engage with the product, do a simple task? At 10 days, are they frustrated with the product or telling their friends about it? What are they starting to discover? At 10 weeks, what are the powerful features they didn’t use before? Are they putting folders and widgets for their own stuff in the phone? At 10 months, they may be ready for a change. Did your brand fulfil its promise, so they stay with you?”

原来我在微软的创意总监,这段话很不错,分享给大家。

XELIBRI 向明日科技致敬

星期三, 五月 20th, 2009

收拾屋子翻出不知道什么时候拿到的一张西门子XELIBRI的明信片(应该是大学时期,后来看到XELIBRI2002年发布),突然唤起了当时对这个系列手机无限的崇敬:独特的市场定位,与众不同的卖点,还有当时非常Cool的电视广告…但是当时的手机市场没能接受这个现在看来都标新立异的定位。衷心期待哪天此品牌的复活。像当时的西门子致敬~

更新:

XELIBRI 1应该来自慕尼黑的设计公司design afairs。

XELIBRI 5 6 7 8为是 IDEO设计的。

Times Reader 2.0

星期三, 五月 13th, 2009

纽约时报的在线版本阅读器,06年就已经有第一个版本了。News in Pictures功能很符合网络阅读特性,而连字游戏又是(西方)传统报纸体验中的一部分,即时随窗口大小排布板式的特性也相当有意思,如下图

下载、视频介绍:http://timesreader.nytimes.com/timesreader/index.html?campaignId=34W88
结合前一阵子的Kindle DX,电子阅读走得越来越近。

Angels On The Moon by Thriving Ivory

星期一, 五月 11th, 2009

这两天Easy FM上听到的一首歌。Angels On The Moon by Thriving Ivory

thriving-ivory

Do you dream , that the world will know your name?
So tell me your name.
(Tell me your name.)
Do you care, about all the little things or anything at all?
(Anything at all.)
I wanna feel, all the chemicals inside I wanna feel.
(I wanna feel.)
I want a sunburn, just to know that I’m alive…
To know I’m alive.
(To know I’m alive.)

Don’t tell me if I’m dyin, cause I don’t wanna know.
If I can’t see the sun, maybe I should go.
Don’t wake me cause I’m dreaming, of angels on the moon.
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon.

Do you believe, in the day that you were born?
Tell me do you believe.
(Do you believe.)
And Do you know, that every day’s the first of the rest of your life.

Don’t tell me if I’m dyin, cause I don’t wanna know.
If I can’t see the sun, maybe I should go.
Don’t wake me cause I’m dreaming, of angels on the moon.
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon.

This is to one last day in the shadows.
And to know a brother’s love.
This is to New York City angels.
And the rivers of our blood.
This is to all of us, to all of us.

So don’t tell me if I’m dyin, cause I don’t wanna know.
If I can’t see the sun, maybe I should go.
Don’t wake me cause I’m dreaming, of angels on the moon.
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon.

Yeah, you can tell me all your thoughts, about the stars that fill polluted skies.
And show me where you run to, when no one’s left to take your side.
But don’t tell me where the road ends, cause I just don’t wanna know, No I don’t wanna know.

Don’t tell me if I’m dyin.
Don’t tell me if I’m dyin.

老爸的计算器

星期一, 三月 30th, 2009

回家吃饭的时候看到老爸翻出这个超级老夏普科学计算器,虽然有点脏,但是从做工、配色到按键的安排都很棒,照相留念。(没想到M8的镜头这么锐)
