Beautiful weather and a great day. Ryan and I went to see as much of the Cyber Arts Festival as we could in one day. We saw the yellow arrows exhibit, and got some yellow arrows for are own. After seeing the exhibit, we found a bunch of arrows around town and texted them, so cool. We put some of our own up to spread the Yellow Arrows.

The Cyber Arts at Kenddal is fantastic, there are tons of really great exhibits there. You need to go down and take a look.

The end of the day.

Ryan found a treasure map.

What a great way to make public art more public. People point out art with yellow arrows that can be tracked by text messaging, creating a “real-world hyperlink”

Through this location-based exchange of text-messages, the Yellow Arrow becomes a symbol for the unique characteristics, personal histories, and hidden secrets that live within our everyday spaces

I know at some point in time that this will happen, but I just hope not this soon. You need to keep your eyes open as a designer/developer and be ready for then next move. I know that these are all just opinions and who cares what the say, but they are good points.

Adobe be nice to flash…

“if you’re hitching your career to Flash, it might be a good time to look at alternatives.”

“how many Flash designers does the world need? Anyhow, most of the good things you can do with Flash, you can do about as well with DHTML (oops that’s called AJAX now) and your “backâ€? button still works.” - Dave Shea

Awesome day. It was the first really nice sunny day in the city, everyone was outside. Oh-course we had to go out (Ryan, Hue, and I). We saw and did a ton, everything from yo-yo people to a bull dog gathering. The yo-yo people were unreal, so funny. yoyoshow.com
