Not For The Fainthearted
Posted by Megan
If you've ever watched (and enjoyed) the stop-motion animation show Robot Chicken on Cartoon Network, then "Five Minutes to Kill Yourself" is a fun little web game you'll enjoy. If the idea of an office worker offing himself in despair isn't amusing to you, then I'd avoid it.

Taxi!
Posted by Bryn
Surely there's no more iconic brand than the screaming-yellow New York City taxicab. Smart Design in NYC put a fresh graphic face on a new breed of taxi (the 2007 Kia Rondo) as part of The Design Trust for Public Space’s Taxi 07 project, celebrating the New York City taxi's centennial. Antenna Design and Birsel + Seck also worked on the project, which bowed this week at the New York International Auto Show.

Customize Your Laptop
Posted by Megan
What's cooler than a 17-inch Power Book? A 17-inch Power Book that's been laser etched with a sweet design. Both Urban Retro Lifestyle and MAKE have posts on this warrenty-voiding trend.

commodity created by the masses? Take our new Web Poll by April 25 and register your vote. Then watch for the results in HOW's August issue.

Deadlines, Schmeadlines.
Posted by Bryn
Lots 'n' lots of deadlines in the fair month of April, at least for HOW-related things. Of note: Promotion Design Awards: Deadline is April 2. That's today, folks. Get your work together and stamp it with a postmark before midnight. In case you didn't hear, we've changed the competition to make it a bit easier to enter, with broader categories to show off even more design work. Judging starts in two weeks; we'll be sure to blog about it! You'll be bombarded with messages about the upcoming HOW Conference early-bird registration deadline (don't say I didn't warn ya). That's April 13, so pay attention. Hotel rooms and conference slots are goin' fast. Then there's the brand-spankin'-new In-HOWse Design Awards (how clever are we with the HOW reference, eh?). If you're a corporate creative, here's your chance to show off to a jury of your peers. Send us your stuff by April 19.

I might actually be excited to go to the gym if they had one of these gorgeous climbing walls.
