I’m in love with the re-issued Braun Analog Watch, which was originally designed by Dietrich Lubs and Dieter Rams.
The Braun Analog Watch is based on the original designs with slight modifications. It features a white face, black leather band, scratch resistant mineral glass and 3 hand quartz movement. The perfect blend of quality and minimal design.
this is simple, but amazing. Unfortunately I found now source / author – anyone?

Vorratsdatenspeicherung - interaktive Grafik ↩
Sechs Monate seiner Vorratsdaten hat der Grünenpolitiker Malte Spitz von der Telekom eingeklagt und ZEIT ONLINE zur Verfügung gestellt. Auf Basis dieser Daten können Sie all seine Bewegungen dieser Zeit nachvollziehen. Die Geodaten haben wir zusätzlich mit frei im Netz verfügbaren Informationen aus dem Leben des Abgeordneten (Twitter, Blogeinträge und Webseiten) verknüpft.
Very interesting interactive infographic about data preservation by Zeit Online, built on the data from Green Party Politician Malte Spitz, who claimed his due against Deutsche Telekom, plus free accessible data from twitter, blogs and Malte Spitz’ website.

New Identity for Bauhaus Dessau by HORT
When we began working on the new identity of the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation we decided to search for a solution that would relate more to the original ideas of Germany’s most influential Modernist school instead of relying on the visual clichés connected to Bauhaus - it seems almost impossible to use circle, square and triangle nowadays without it coming across as ironic or historicist.
Apart from stationery, brochures, posters, tickets, website etc. the new identity also included the redesign of the signage of Gropius’ famous Bauhaus building. This factor making it even more important that a clear distinction could be made by visitors what was apart of the original structure and what new additions we had made.
41 minutes and not a single beat (well, almost).
I love it. The first 8 minutes are mind-blowing.
Thanks for sharing. This set is so amazingly chilled.

»Well, I want the word “startup” back! You build a startup to test an idea and then you build a company to execute that idea. Let’s get back to that distinction. No more romanticizing about how cool it is to be an entrepreneur. It’s a struggle to save your company’s life — and your own skin — every day of the week. When this bubble blows up — and it will — only the people who have been prepared all along to make a business out of their startup will survive.«
— Spencer Fry in Startup vs. Company (I needed to point this out insistently)
