- Guidelines
Guidelines, designed by Dutchman Frederik Roijé, is an innovative wall fixture that functions as a magazine rack. The magazines are held in place by two bent metal frames, one on top of the other. The manner in which the magazines are displayed is as if they were works of art. The playfulness of the structure conceals its surreptitious functionality. If I didn’t know better, I would have enjoyed this piece purely for its design.
I also find it interesting that, when looked up from the front, nothing but thin lines could be seen – it seems as though the magazines and rack amalgamate inconspicuously. Furthermore, the white colored rack placed against a white wall gives the illusion that the magazines are floating.

“Remember these are commercial free too, which is nice.”
- Steve Jobs
(I think this is the most important part of the whole Apple TV presentation. I hate commercials, they are a waste of time and they keep me from enjoying the content. I rather pay than see commercials. The same, by the way, applies to web sites)- Original article

The new Apple TV. Your TV, simplified.
(Don’t worry, I have something to say about everything released today but real life has me waiting to sit down and write it.)

- Left to spend
Left to spend makes managing a budget simpler than ever before. Instead of overloading you with features like the ability to categorise your expenses, setting up multiple accounts and configuring recurring payments and incomes, ‘Left to spend’ just answers the simple question: “Do I have money to spend, right now?”.

Catherine Winters on note taking:
A really simple and good description about taking notes in an efficient way with Notational Velocity and Simplenote. She also mentions Notes as an alternative for Notational Velocity for Windows.

The Way I Work: Jason Fried of 37Signals:
I try not to grab my phone and check e-mails first thing. I used to do that, and it’s just not good for you. Instead, I’ll go and brew some tea and try and relax a little bit. But the computer’s always kind of pulling me toward it, so I end up looking at e-mail sooner than I’d like to…

- minimalmac: To use ‘Left to spend’, all you need to do is...
To use ‘Left to spend’, all you need to do is set up a daily allowance that you KNOW won’t break your budget. Every day this amount will be added to your total allowance. Whenever you spend money you simply open ‘Left to spend’ and enter the amount, which is then subtracted from your total allowance. If your total allowance is running low, you need to slow down your spending and wait for your allowances to accumulate. As long as you never get below 0, you’ll never have to worry about money again.

- Bauhaus Chessmen
The Bauhaus Chessmen, designed by Josef Hartwig all the way back in 1923, are a great example about minimalism and simplicity in design, but above all a perfect example of applied symbolism.
Each piece is shaped as a combination of cubes, cylinders and balls, representing the way they move on the board. For example, the queen is shaped with a big cube with a ball on representing it can move on any direction.
Another touch of minimalism: the board itself does not have a frame: it’s just the checked field.
The Bauhaus Chessmen is part of the MoMA Collection.
