Delicious surprises

We've just found some pages that thoughtful types have delicious-ed for us; us being the Staufenberger account we use to archive this site.

We'd never used the links for you bit so hadn't been looking for them. So it was a nice suprise to find a few things from David and a little something from our favourite architect in Birmingham, Rob Annable.

David points us to, amongst other things, a Venice Project/Joost-a-like, Babelgum. And from Rob comes an addictive site that demonstrates various skate tricks with the aid of 3D motion graphics. I can't manage to embed a flash file of one of the tricks so you'll just have to go and take look: The A-Z of Skateboard Tricks.

Thanks, chaps.

And if anyone else feels like leaving us a surprise, you know the sort of stuff we like to procrastinate to: the usual mix of bikes, skating, sneakers, videos of Michel Gondry and/or Rubiks Cubes and - occasionally - intellectual stuff about communication.

Judge a man by his sneakers

We love sneakers here at Staufenberger, they also say a lot about a man. In fact I only got a job in advertising because I thought I could wear them everyday for work. Then the shock of my first client meeting when I was instructed to go 'suited and booted'. That was years ago, since then everyone seems to have come round to my way of thinking, even the finance guy seems to wear jeans and sneakers to work (well on Friday's anyway).

So now they're work wear we need to keep them clean and for that we have Jason Markk's Premium Sneaker Solution. Beautifully packaged

and safe to use on practically every material.

There's also a helpful 'how to' video.

Now there's no excuse for not having box-fresh sneakers for that all important pitch or meeting with your accountant.
