Everybody Does It | May 21, 2003

I can't think of anything interesting to say today, so I'll just resort to a bit of capitalist indulgence.

Here's a list of stuff I want, in no particular order:

an iPod
an iBook, for that matter
a new Casio G-Cool Baby-G watch
a long vacation to New Zealand or Europe
a British Racing Green Mini Cooper
an Oxford English Dictionary
a bag of cheese curds from Wisconsin
a PlayStation 2
a sexy 40-inch plasma television
a pair of red Adidas sneakers just like my blue ones
that David Bowie greatest hits DVD
a new desk
a leather sleeper sofa
a bread maker
a Swedish mattress

Written elsewhere.

You can find more of the interesting word usements I structure* on Apple.com.

Read my article, Better Writing Through Design, on No. 242 of A List Apart.

Pick up issue 176 of .net magazine to read my thoughts on creating outstanding web copy.
