twitterrific_iconIs it too late to jump on the Twitter bandwagon?

Due to Twitterrific, a nice little Mac app, I decided to make some use of my Twitter account.

So if anyone wants to stalk me and know what I do at all times, by all means, feel free to try my Twitter page.

LaCie Hard Drive, Design by F.A. Porsche

Friday, March 30th, 2007 at 9:27 pm

I got myself a treat: In order to backup my PC and Macbook, I’ve bought an external LaCie hard drive, designed by F.A. Porsche.

I got the USB 2.0, 320Gb version for about 110 euros, not a bad price for Greece.

My New Purchase

In the LaCie website and on its box it looks kinda enormous, but it really isn’t. It’s nice and sleek and small. To be frank, I didn’t really drop dead due to its design, but it’s elegant and subtle enough to be on my desk on all times. I’ve placed it vertically to minimize the space required, and switch it on only when I want to move something to it (mainly because of the noise).

My 100GB PC disk took about 2 days (!) to transfer, but mainly because I haven’t flashed my BIOS to support USB 2.0 (yes, I have an aging PC, but after the format it’s almost blazing fast).

All in all, it’s a nice, sleek gadget, well worth its money.

If you’re a web designer, chances are that you already know all about Smashing Magazine. If you don’t know zilch, it’s a great place that gathers the freshest design ideas from around the Web and features them in nicely composed articles.

On 13rd March, an article named “Inspire Yourself: 58 Creative Logos” was posted there. Guess what: the Pathfinder logo was featured. Proof:
