“Online forums/user groups are meant to be useful. But too many participants (and moderators) use archives not as a resource but a weapon.”

- Twitter / Kathy Sierra which led to a discussion…

I say yelp talk is a prime example.

When users fail to use tools available to them, I for one will be happy to let them know what tools they should have used instead of wasting my time using said too for them.

Then they can go waste their own time and not several folks’ in return.

Perhaps that’s too sharp a way of using it for some, but frankly, when you have obvious tools available to you and choose (yes, choose) not to use them expecting someone else to, you deserve every ration of shit you get for it.

I totally agree with you. I also know that it serves as a good reminder to me when I design things that have social/community aspects… I need to make sure that I help make/design the tools available obvious and easy to use. That is the responsibility that I need to keep in mind.

Audiowood Turntables

“I love that turntables are back in! And these sculptured wood ones created by Joel Scilley’s of Audiowood are truly works of art. The organic designs and detailed woodworking adds warmth and personality to the technology.

” You won’t find much veneer here, nor will you see anything you’ve seen elsewhere. I’m building things that sound great, that work well, and that enhance musical experiences with their absolutely unique character.”

New custom turntables range from approximately $1000 to $3500 depending on parts and design.

Just Beautiful.” (via 2Modern Design Talk)

2Modern Design Talk: Clever Chair

“The result is a free standing wood chair without any back legs. The Mieserolo chair cantilevers over itself so that it seems to defy gravity. That is the genius of Serbian designer, Uros Vitas, who used the structural strength of the curved shapes against each other. The fact that the chair rolls back up into a small, light weight, bundle adds another layer of functionality to the design.”

brilliant. genius. amazing.
