Take a look at the AIGA's Urban Forest Project. “Design Times Square: The Urban Forest Project brings 185 banners created by the world’s most celebrated designers, artists, photographers and illustrators to New York’s Times Square. Each banner uses the form of the tree, or a metaphor for the tree, to make a powerful visual statement.”

It's time to get serious about "net neutrality." First, watch a hilarious video on wearetheweb.org. This will illustrate two things. First, creative people use the Internet constructively in the name of free speech and creative freedom. Second, if Internet access is regulated and certain web sites are "prioritized," the voice of the creative community will be compromised. Worse yet, because the Internet is a portal for free speech, people who previously used the Internet for a platform to discuss and communicate about important topics might lose their platform or, at best, reach only a fraction of their intended audience. Learn more about this important issue at the following web sites:

• We Are the Web
• Hands Off
• Don't Regulate
• Save the Internet
• It's Out Net
• Google Guide to Net Neutrality

As with any important issue, you need to become knowledgeable and form your own opinions. Some of the former sites might have a "hidden agenda." Approach the issue from multiple angles, form your own opinions and take action.

I also want to mention the new Computerlove, which isn't really new. The blog format, which allows the use of images, makes finding interesting work fun and easy. Sure, you have to love Newstoday, K10K, Lounge72 and others, but I think that the use of images makes the experience richer.
