Sometimes picking a designer is like finding a good restaurant, you either have to go there and try the food or ask a bunch of your friends where the best place to eat is. Well, I’m your friend and I found an AWESOME restaurant!! Actually, not a restaurant but an awesome designer!!!
His name is Preston Lee and I highly recommend you follow his blog, join the conversation with him on Twitter, AND use his ninja rock star design skills for what ever you need designing for.

I was recently shown the best powerpoint presentation I have ever seen. It happens to be a powerpoint about powerpoint presentations entitled “Death by PowerPoint”. Any one wanting to improve their PowerPoint presentations or just wanting a good laugh should take a moment and read through the presentation shared on slideshare.com
Spezify does a good job of representing search results visually and it’s kind of fun. The big thing I like about Spezify is the navigation response with the keyboard arrow keys. Try it! Left… right… up & down. Maybe if the results returned more of one kind of result based on the direction you navigated instead of just loading more results, it would be more useful. Example: If I do a search and I want to see what people are saying about the latest whatever, I’ll probably be searching for tweets. So, if tweets are shown above the middle of the returned search result screen, when I navigate up, I would expect the engine to return more tweet results rather than a potpourri of media and sites. Overall, I like what they have done but I think it needs a bit more work before it will actually get used for a lot of searching.
