Funky Webdesign Ideas [some great, some horrible]

Funky Webdesign Ideas [some great, some horrible] | Daily Magazine | Scoop.it
If you spend enough time online, it's surprising how much most websites start to look alike. Sure, there are variations, but to a large extent, web design is

Wow, some cool web design ideas here and some HORRIBLE ones. I like Wolf & Badger: https://www.wolfandbadger.com/ Current site doesn't look like the FLASH example.

Never use Flash at this point as it kills SEO and its not "trending" in the right direction). Some of these ideas are a mess, but see which ones are your favorites. Always good to see where the line is. Some of these sites are well over the line.

New design isn't as funky, but it is solid. The idea of walking a customer into the middle of a strange fantasy seen and letting them find their links would not normally be something I would like since it obscures instead of makes clear.

The Online Shop (lower right) is what sold me on this fantasy. I also think we are in a time when sites are sites and so BORING. The Flash needed to be killed but check out the link to there new site and see if you don't still rock a good design.

Free your Lego, K'Nex, Tinkertoys, and beyond! 3D Printer & The Free Universal Construction Kit

A few colleagues and I were talking about developing a water transportation hands-on activity for kids using Lego. In serching for cool Lego stuff (yes, that's what I do for work) I came across this and could not contain my excitement! With a 3D printer (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing, I know of 3D printing because we have it in the dept), Carnegie Mellon Professor Golan Levin developed the Free Universal Constrauction Kit - "A collection of nearly 80 adapter bricks that enable complete interoperability between ten popular children's construction toys."

 

While some people were worried about legal concerns, so far none of the companies have reaised any issues with this. So until then, the models are available for download at http://fffff.at/free-universal-construction-kit/- all you will need then is to print these out with a 3D printer...
