Site Seeing: Just One

jacki — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 13:45:09 +0000

Welcome February! While the shortest month, February is usually a busy month at the Think Tank offices. To kick off the first day of the month, we’re focusing on Websites with “one” in the name for our weekly site seeing column (others can be found here). As always, click on the image to go to the page.

Site Seeing: Associations on Twitter

jacki — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 14:15:56 +0000

This week, we’ll be focusing on Twitter and how associations can utilize it as a tool to interact with members, increase conference registrations and add value to membership. Instead of focusing just on the design of the pages for our weekly site seeing column (others can be found here) we’ve found some associations on Twitter with great content on their page. Some are even nicely designed. As always, click on the image to go to the page.

It is impossible to ignore the tragedy in Haiti and the many, many Haitians that need assistance to survive this great tragedy. For this week’s site seeing column, (others can be found here) we thought it appropriate to highlight some of the organizations on the front lines.

Red Cross

Habitat for Humanity

Embassy of Haiti

Doctors Without Borders

Tonight, I’m lucky enough to have the opportunity to hear one of my design idols, Stefan Sagmeister, speak in front of a sold out crowd at the Corcoran. Sagmeister has one of today’s foremost graphic designers, attracting diverse clients such as the Rolling Stones, HBO, AIGA, and the Guggenheim Museum.

In his lecture, he will speak about the possibilities of achieving happiness through design. We’ll obviously blog about our reactions to the event on Wednesday, but in the meantime, check out his agency Website as well as the TED talk below on the same topic.
