I stumbled upon a great presentation from DC-based interactive agency Jess3 today. The presentation makes some great points about working with a designer and using your designer as a strategic partner for your organization.
What am I supposed to be doing? I’m supposed to be working on the content for my new website. My new fabulous website. My new fabulous website that is so fabulous I actually have no desire to update my comparatively old, ugly, outdated website. The new one is really great — it’s modern, it’s clean, it’s bright, and it has lots of fun tools that I love and my developers hated. (Thanks, Related Media!)
The May 2010 issue of Women’s Health had a statistic that for every interruption during your day, you lose 10 IQ points. The video in this post contains an interview with Jason Fried of 37 Signals and explains why it is that work days have become longer and longer, and yet our productivity has decreased.

It’s no secret: I LOVE to cook! It’s a great way to unwind after a long way, and there is something about the colors and smells and feel of being in the kitchen that really gets the creative juices flowing.

My solution: I headed to the computer to design a fun new set of labels for my spices.
