“You know who thinks the iPhone 3GS stinks? Steve Jobs. No one is working harder...”
– For all iPhone fans out there (me included), that’s so true! The proof I am an iPhone/Apple fan is the iPhone apps for Geeks series, which is covering the coolest and most useful iPhone apps and also provides hints on apps sales and updates. (via alexpopescu)

Brand Identity Complete
initialize: I posted a few weeks ago that we were working on an identity for our new venture and I’m proud to say that it is complete. You can see the completed logo above.
