good blog, good book.

Sally Hogshead has a wonderful "hog blog" that I think every Art Director, Copywriter and designer should read. She posted this article a while back and I just realized it supported a book I just recently picked up from a friend.

first things first design manifesto 2000

blogging site

This is a blogger that I started this summer and failed to maintain. I would like to revive this site as a source of interesting design things we come across while surfing the internet that might or might not pertain to class, however it is imperative as artists that we maintain knowledge on what is going on in our culture.
