S&S has launched the replacement for simonsays.com. The new site is full of video and audio and sports a community section. I haven’t clicked through everything yet, but it seems par for the course these days amongst publishers. Kudos to S&S for finally getting it launched!

Word of the Year 2008
Merriam-Webster has declared the word “bailout” as the 2008 word of the year. It nabbed top honors for receiving the highest number of on-site searches in the shortest amount of time. Last year’s winner was “w00t“. Kinda paints a picture of how things have changed, doesn’t it?

Ending Title Sequences
Just easing into the week with a fun Flickr collection rolling through on slideshow. It has almost 150 screenshots from various films and tv shows over the years. Lots of fun fonts. My favorite turned out to be this classic by Saul Bass.
