It looks like nymag.com has updated some of the assets on their site recently, I really think this is a “best in class” interactive periodical translation. With websites like this, I don’t really care if print dies…kudos to whoever designed this site. Trivia fact-did you know that Milton Glaser founded the magazine in 1968.

iD : A card for Designers.

| March 12th, 2008

I think it’s really unfair that Designers can’t afford “Designer Merchandise”, I am proposing a system, wait more like a movement–I call it “iD”. Designers will be issued identification cards, probably made of aluminum, frosted acrylic or whatever Apple is exploiting at the time. These iD cards will provide substantial discounts on all Designer merchandise and services. Who is with me?

(If your card is lost or stolen, you may be quized to prove you are in fact a Designer. Example question: Who is Paul Rand?)
