Hey Andrew. I’ve been checking out the new mobile site and I think it’s great. Very sleek, simple, and easy to use. Nice work!

hilarious, great reply….

Too funny; can’t believe I’m the first to ‘Like’ this!

Ya, I love his hand-drawn business cards too.  My favorite is the one that says ‘Jeff Shelton Architect slow but expensive’…

Not exactly an answer but a suggestion.  Has your friend looked in to KickStarter?  They have very cool projects and documentaries on there that are crowd funded.  This project sounds like a lot of successful ones that are on there…

As my latest interest has been biomimicry in design, I found this slide from his presentation to be great!

Hey Matthew,

recently heard a rumor that apple is releasing the iphone 5 later this year and the move to verizon was to ensure sales of all backloads of the iphone 4 because it’s not selling at AT&T to add to the motivation…
