NEWWORK

I usually find it quite pointless when magazines try to recreate a print experience online. NEWWORK is one of the few exceptions I’ve seen. The site is a simple side scrolling experience with an elegant semi-translucent overlay of the issue number. The large-format pages actually reduce down very well, and the site does a great job of letting the viewer experiencing the magazine in a totally different way.

Browse Great Interaction Design at Konigi

Someone at the office recently pointed me to a great resource for interaction design. Konigi collects great examples of interaction techniques, interactive design, and how-to’s from around the web. You won’t find burning points of view or an active dialog here, but you will get a simply organized, easy to browse, powerful visual reference that should prove extremely useful for design research and internal conversation starters.

Visualizing Social Influence

A recent post from Flowing Data led me to the website for the Portland agency Instrument. Last summer they completed an application for Google that beautifully visualizes the social influence of content across the Internet over time.

Would love to get my hands on this, but it looks like an internal Google R&D effort.
