All-Hat App & No Cowboy

Yesterday, the designer within me, stole $1.99 out of my pocket and wasted it on an iPhone App. The design of DIACARTA is absolutely beautiful and a true graphic gift for a visual thinker.

Unfortunately, the interface is not compatible with iCal – which by the way, manages both my professional and business lives.

DIACARTA, please restore my faith in everything beautiful and figure out a way to connect. For now, I will have to leave the receiver off the hook.

I am Hoagieman.

A really good friend of mine, who on a regular basis, tools around Key West in her orange VW Van, sent me this link. Wawa's Hoagiefest 2010.

Picture a site built around The Yellow Submarine and cheap submarine sandwiches. Enjoy the ride and have a good trip!

EYMER Mascot's New (Earth-Friendly) Dog Toy of Choice

For the past year and a half, Olivetti (yes, named after the famous Italian typewriter) has been the official mascot of EYMER DESIGN Laboratories + Think Tank. A high-spirited, energetic, and too often mischievous German Shorthaired Pointer – Olivetti has taken us on many misadventures and near disasters. By now, FedEx and UPS drivers know not to leave unattended packages by our front door. One too many packages has ended up in the front yard, chewed to pieces with the contents strewn hither and yon!

In order to keep her occupied, our challenge has been to find her the perfect and virtually indestructible dog toy. After nearly a year working with our client and Portland Maine's, online dog supply leader, Fetchdog – we had almost given up on finding a dog toy that had a shelf-life of over 6 hours – before being destroyed.

Last weekend, while shopping at Whole Foods, we discovered ABO Gear's, Jute Shaker. Check out these specs:

• 8 Layers - 96 oz. of Jute Fabric
• Sealed bamboo wood with dried beans inside (Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on Earth)
• 100% Natural
• 100% Renewable, Biodegradable & Recyclable
• Inspired & Designed in Australia | Hand crafted in India

It has been nearly a week of regular play and Olivetti has yet to tear it apart! The ABO Gear website sells the toy for $15. We paid $9.99 at Whole Foods.

That's the mascot report from EYMER DESIGN!
