I know this is the nerd in me coming out but I hate, hate, HATE it when companies or radio stations call audio recordings podcasts. I’ve had to deal with clients that think by throwing an MP3 on their site, it automatically becomes a podcast. It’s not a podcast unless it’s delivered via some sort of syndication - usually RSS or Atom.
It’s really not that hard guys. If...

Segura redesigns for the first time in seemingly forever, with a giant homepage. Love it.
Wow, I’ve been waiting for this redesign. Along with Cuban Council, these are the two sites I’ve been wanting to see redesigned for years now. I’m not let down either, as anticipation usually allows. Nice work Carlos and team.

Dubai to 'cool' it's sand for beach goers. →
Continuing my obsession with ‘Dubai being a fantasyland’, The Plaazzo Versace hotel will be the world’s first to have a refrigerated beach. The Versace hotel “will have a network of pipes beneath the sand containing a coolant that will absorb heat from the surface.” Thank god somebody researched this and figured out a solution.

#001 That Stupid Thing I Did Today
So, yeah, today my phone got caught in a loop that wouldn’t allow it to start up.

This wouldn’t have been a big deal 2 years ago, which was the last time I snyc my phone.

WatchMichel Gondry has long been a fan of time-lapse photography. In this short film, entitled “Soleil du Soir” (Sun in the Evening) he speeds up everything in the frame except for the actors. The time and patience it takes so create something like this is admirable, by both director and actors.
