  • Me: We need to start our own company, recreating slides for corporations. I'm listening/watching a webinar from a some company... I don't even know what they do actually... and their slides are AWFUL. My eyes are bleeding. UAOINASODKMAWPLEMASDSKEIWOAND omg. COMIC SANS.
  • Chichi: HOLY SHIT NOOOOOOOOO! Ok. We need to coordinate.
  • Me: We need to come up with Commandments of Good Design. Or Commandments of Design that DOES NOT SUCK.
  • Chichi: This is getting oddly religious hahaha Commandments of Awesome Design? The Ten Commandments of Awesome?
  • Me: Yes. Something. Good design IS religious!! We also should compile/refine/add to our list of resources - websites we like that also talk about good design.
  • Chichi: YES! We could even show people how they can incorporate design elements from non-slide thingies into their slides!
  • Me: Exxxacccctly. I plan to take pictures of good design in Austin - on anything - buildings, signs, menus, books, etc.
  • Chichi: I am excited!!!!!

Trying to figure out my style codes. Woot.
