The site is part of a series of online / viral marketing efforts for Suitcase Fusion. Its good, I enjoyed it, it made me think a bit more about font management, but already use the free linotype FontExplorerX...

WatchMTV MUSIC
MTV now a serious competitor to youtube sticking up thousands of music videos on their new site.

WatchIf your a designer, chances are you’ve already seen this video, or at least the pepsi rebrand stills.
I’m still going back and forth on this redesign. I quite like the more refined look, ala the award winning Turner Duckworth Coke Redesign, but I really hate the type, and the fact that the logo is somehow meant to be a smile.

Facebook has this great feature that almost no one seems to know about. They call it Importer (or something, I’m having trouble finding a specific url describing it from facebook’s point of view).

Then I noticed I was following two betty drapers. @bettydraper and @betty_draper. I can’t remember when I picked up the second but the second one posts a lot more.
then I was followed by @adbroad and the plot...

So after I twittered: http://twitter.com/Kiel/statuses/944878367
I got a email letting me know that someone was now following me on twitter.
It was @bettydraper. One of the shows main characters. Sniffing through her twitter history I found just about all of the main characters. @don_draper, @Roger_Sterling even the kids, @sally_draper and @robert_draper. What’s truly amazing is that...
