Behold, the 2008 Phantom Drophead Coupé. Nautical inspired wood trim, suicide doors (on a coupé mind you) and the largest fabric roof used on a modern convertible.
Put all that together with a 6.75L V12, which generates 453 horsepower and 513 lb-ft of torque at 3500 rpm…see ya’ (oh and it’s only $407,000)
More pics after the jump

I’ve been in Cali for a week now and honestly, nothing great has happened…well kind of. Before I left to Chicago, I bought a Blackberry Pearl and am in love with it. Its smaller than the 8700g (which I cracked the screen out of frustration) and the 7105t (which I dropped a remote on and cracked the screen). Mr. Barrett’s post on was the clincher on me buying the phone and I got it for a decent craigslist price.

Salaam Remi created this JB mix during the 90′s. Now you can mourne the death of this plastic fantastic by DANCING – just like the godfather would have wanted!
Jeez, christmas day… what a time to go!

the past 2 months have been the busiest of my life. adding chris to the UBIQ staff has helped a LOT, but the workload has significantly increased since his arrival. to give you all a headsup on what’s going down… i documented our day on wednesday as we had the first of many meetings that will happen between now and mid january when we close the store for renovations. wow, i can’t believe that’s 3 weeks away! check out more pics… censored so that the name stays under wraps til we open.

(mt) recently launched Krop.com, a site where you can find jobs in the creative and tech domains. The interface is really 2.0 slick and results are easy to find.
Now if only I could find a full-time job .. anyone?

This is what happens when skateboarders have money and want a place to skate away from rollerbladers.
For once I respect the hate. Fair play

This was originally posted on you tube a while ago, there was alsom some behind the scenes type stuff. Interesting to see the layers of composition and tracking that took place to pull these spots off. Pretty much some of my fav spots of 06.

This is rad. Many of you know that I spend my days working for an advertising agency, some of you are privy to my ranting and ravings about all things advertising, from how I think things should be run to new directions I believe we should be pushing towards. Nothing gets me more siked for all things agency other than finding insight into the people and places I find the most compelling. Of late, I’ve been into researching other agencies and studios. Seeing thier work, how they work and where they work. After watching this trailer I get the sense that I’ve been missing out on alot of back stories that have shaped my views on both ads and their products.
If your interested like I am in these types of things I ask you to check this trailer out for The Alchemists
I’m not even close to the first person to do this. But right now i’m posting from my macbook pro using my blackberry pearl as a modem through bluetooth. stuck at the denver airport i don’t have to pay to use that wacky AT&T nonsense that costs 10 bucks for one day (or however long you’re at the airport).

For those who don’t know, he was one of the key players of the inspiring Life Plus as the creator of the introductions, which is featured in his reel. It’s a must see. Good job Carlos.
Bust It.
If you like me, have a new intel based mac and are disapointed with how photoshop has been running through rosetta, and how you have to wait until spring for a universal version, fret no longer! A beta version will be free to download TOMORROW if you have CS2 and a valid serial number.
Now i’ll be able to see how his mac pro really screams. Hot damn! Be sure to check Adobe tomorrow for details.

Since i’m on a computer for a good eight hours a day, it may be surprising to some of you that i’ve only been following the website digg.com recently, and it seems that I’m starting to get hooked. I’ve known about this site for a while, but never really paid it much thought until I read about how digg made its founder Kevin Rose worth about 60 million dollars. So that made it a bit more interesting.
Revision 3 is a by-product of all this, a media network geared towards producing content targeted to the same crowd that diggs digg. With podcasts and vidcasts to download, i’m sure the site has something for everyone. Tim from Revival recommended diggnation to me and I do agree it is definitely worth a look. Go download today!

Eboy have released a new poster with all sorts of web 2.0 logos in their pixel-style. Where’s Waldo geek style. Buy one today.

I have to apologies on behalf of myself and the rest of the crE™w for the inconsistency of new posts. For myself, I’ve been pushing double duty going to school and working as a designer for a small Chicago design firm Pylit. Before I go back to California for the vacation, I have to suffer through finals. I’m not bitter because I combined both my photo finals together into one big project I’m busing my ass for and which I invested in a Nikon D80 for.
For the rest of the story.
