The Metallica logo has changed a lot over the years – here’s a post I wrote a while back showing how it altered with each successive album. And if you’re a big fan of Metallica, why not contibute to the Metallica wiki page on Unreality Shout?

Amazing folding UK plug design
Yes yes yes! As someone who lives in the UK, this is quite possibly one of the smartest redesigns of the UK plug I’ve ever seen – it’s hyper-compact and even acts as a plug-board to connect additional plugs to. And is that a pair of USB chargers I see attached to the side?

Death of the Blog Post by Smashing Magazine
Smashing Magazine posit that the fixed-format blog post may give way to a more elaborate blogzine style of posting in which each post has its own unique stylesheet, making it look more like a magazine in concept than a blog.
I first saw this in effect when Jason Santa Maria redesigned his blog a while back. It’s an amazing concept, and visually stunning. The problem for 99% of web users, bloggers and whatnots is that they just don’t have the design skills to make something like this happen. Plus, for the majority of people, having to think so hard about the design of an article would be a disincentive to write at all!
For those designers who have the time, creativity and ability to make the blogzine format work, there may be a new niche in it for them to own.
