Ruairi Robinson
The person behind the masterpiece, The Silent City. Trailers is avaiable at YouTube but I strongly recommend that you download the high quality(378mb) ones from his website.
Master Plan The Movie
A movie based on the ever famous search engine, Google. Some of the facts potrayed are suprisingly scary though. Google with world domination?
Vimeo
If you’ve ever wondered where’s an alternative to YouTube which seems clogged with ads and bots? Vimeo is one.

Fertigo - Free Quality Foundry Font
Free Font to your liking.
Starbucks - Be the Barista
A very good move made by Starbucks to create this mini game to clear up the overasked confusions of drink’s name in their cafeteria. I’ve myself always had no idea what to order and confused by the crafty names. Inside this game, you’ll have to be the person to serve coffees and run around to serve the correct ingredients. Of course there are parts that they can be better at the finishing, but overall, it’s good to inform the consumers on what they’re about.
PigsAHoy
No, this is not another Happy ‘Pig’ Year post, but I have no idea why they used pig to be a controllable character inside the game. Does Piggy-bank links back to their concept of ATM machine? Sounds too harsh?

The art of glen keane : Rapunzel
A great gallery of work in progress art works that never seem to see the dawn of light. A lot of sketches of the master behind most of the great animation ever, such as aladin, pocahontas or more. A must visit for illustrator, a master. Thanks Julian.
Volvo C30
A great site to start with, probably not as popular in our country since there are less drivers compared with BMW or Mercedes. In this site itself, customization is at its best where you can go colour the car to your liking. I’m not so sure about the concept itself, but it revolves behind the idea of unpacking, such when you’re buying new gadget, the feeling of first unboxing your 30inch TV, first unboxing your LCD monitor or even Wacom Tablet.

Join The Beat.
A flash mini-site potrays lifestyle to market a product. Not unusual, but still fresh to look at. Impressed with the way they handle the video so that you wouldn’t notice too much of stuttering of the video.
Leo Villareal at Cool Hunting
If you like interactive design work, should give a look at this page, featuring some interesting work that are applied to the wall, which seemingly, looks similar to blinkenlights, but of course, their technology is different from behind.
And if you’re looking into ‘mod’ your IKEA furnitures, head over to ikea hacker and see how much cool thing you can do with your stuff.
