Elexicon client Harris Corporation, headquartered in Melbourne, Florida, is sponsoring the nearby Orlando Magic for the NBA playoffs. Elexicon had the opportunity to provide some web graphics and animations to support the sponsorship so a couple snippets of our work is thereby getting a larger audience than usual which is, well, neat. Calvin created an animation for Amway Arena’s huge LED boards, and Jennifer supplied a sponsorship banner for the Magic’s web site (it’s a rotating sponsorship so the Harris banner may not appear initially). Good stuff.

I noticed a couple conversations on Facebook today about the fact that there is no “Dislike” button. You have the ability to click and state that you “Like” a friend’s status or post, but you can’t “Dislike” it. There is a FB group dedicated to convincing Facebook to add a thumbs-down button. Personally I hope this never happens. Isn’t there enough “dislike” in the real world?
Organic’s ThreeMinds blog posted some interesting links about lessons information architects can learn from regular architects (’regular’ for lack of a better terms … these folks are anything but regular). While this overall ideas is, of course, nothing new, these five lessons are all fresh takes with keen insights. Lesson #1, “start with the joints (points of stress)” definitely caught my attention. Sounds like this conference speaker they’ve met is writing a sequel to The Fountainheadache. These concepts are all focused on giving the client what they want while getting them excited about discovering what they also need.
