Glitch Brand
Another fashion brand to utilize glitch aesthetics for it’s clothing line:
A “glitch” is an unexpected result of a malfunction or digital error.
Glitch art is the visual manifestation of such an error…an error not be discarded or deleted but given a new purpose as a form of artistic expression.
Our in house design team utilizes exclusive, one of a kind, “glitch photographic“ images to open a portal to a new fine art fashion movement.
To us, a glitch offers a perfectly amazing peice of art to be seen…and worn in the digital age!
Get in the glitch…
Glitch Brand.
Nothing is available at it’s store yet, but you can out more at their site here and their Tumblr blog here

Twylah
Service that presents your tweets as a page arranged by types of content.
I’m impressed by how it is all done, and is probably a better way to see how certain subjects which you share can be grouped together. Twitter, at the moment is preparing ‘brand pages’ as we speak, but I doubt it will provide as good context. You can organize the content into separate topics and choose some for higher priority. Think of it as breaking down your Tumblr posts by the tag you apply them with (although with Twylah it is based on words you use within your tweet).
Customization is limited unless you opt-for a custom domain to act as an addition page to your website.
Here is this site’s Twylah Page: http://www.twylah.com/prostheticknowl
You can request an invite at Twylah here

Google to Retire Blogger & Picasa Brands in Google+ Push Say goodbye to the Picasa and Blogger names: Google intends to retire several non-Google name brands and rename them as Google products, Mashable has learned.
The move is part of a larger effort to unify its brand for the public launch of Google+, the search giant’s social initiative.
Blogger and Picasa aren’t going away, of course — they’re two of Google’s most popular products. Instead, according to two sources familiar with the matter, Google intends to rename Picasa “Google Photos” and Blogger will become “Google Blogs.” Several other Google brands are likely to be affected, though our sources made it clear that YouTube would not be rebranded. The technology giant shut down Google Video, its failed web video service, in May.

Apple Logo Is an Agnostic's Crucifix, Star of David: Study 
Duke University study finds brands and religion fulfill the same psychoemotional needs (via piratepickings)
… in a new study from Duke University, which concludes: “The brand name logo on a laptop or a shirt pocket may do the same thing for some people that a pendant of a crucifix or Star of David does for others.” In fact, the more religious a person is, the less brand expression appears to matter.
Researchers at Duke ran several experiments to determine this disconnection between brand importance and religiosity. In one, the team analyzed geographic areas for the number of Apple, Macy’s, and Gap stores per million people. These statistics were compared with brand-discount stores. “Then they compared these rough measures of brand reliance against the number of congregations per thousand and self-reported attendance in church or synagogue, controlling for income, education and urbanization differences,” the report says. “In every analysis, they found a negative relationship between brand reliance and religiosity.”
I’m not surprised about this, and I think there has always been a connection between religion and branding … most Christian holidays are rebranded pagan calendar celebrations (winter solstice = Christmas, Easter = a Christian reworking of a pagan cult resurrection festival)

Here’s a pleasant little glimpse into the hellish nightmare that is humanity’s future.
Well, not everyone will be allowed into the Coca-Cola enclave of course - the lucky ones will be on the other side of the wall, hunting wild mutants and boiling toxic drain water.
Big Brother is branded - a simulacrum of activity with RFID and Facebook, and it will be the fault of teenagers …..

This is how a brand should use the internet - a mesmerising experience on so many creative / design levels. Love the tilt-shift videos.
