Logo Redesign

After some great design advice from Nadya, I've done some redesigning. Here are the new logos.

A little help, please.

Well I've got a business name and a website. I need some feedback. Let me know what you think about the logos and taglines below. Any design tips or feedback would be much appreciated. And it's OK to be as critical as you want. I just want honest feedback.

If you're curious, my website is www.desigmotion.com. Check it out if you'd like. It's pretty much just a temporary contact page for now. I'll get the real site up as soon as I get caught up on the other sites I'm doing.

The World Is Flat

A friend of mine from AutoTrader shared the video below with me. I found it extremely interesting and it covers a lot of the points expressed in The World Is Flat.

I just recently finished reading (listening to) The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century by Thomas L. Friedman and all I can say is... WOW. The idea behind the book is that the world has really turned into a very level playing field due to advances in computers, internet and technology. In goes into depth as to how easy it really is for someone to outsource anything they need done (in India) or made (in China) and why our society and we as individuals can truly benefit from this outsourcing. It also explores the top ten "flateners" of our time and how they have changed the world as we know it. This book really opened my eyes to the bigger picture of global commerce and how tremendous the possibilities really are for anyone who wants to take advantage of them. Wanna know the craziest thing about this book? It was written OVER THREE YEARS AGO. It's already been revised twice. If you watch the video above, it'll make sense to you as to why I find this so crazy.

Also, we as Americans, have a lot of learning and catching up to do if we want to keep up with emerging global super powers like China and India. For a lighter, easier read with much more detailed instructions on how ANYONE can thrive from the expanding possibilities made possible by the internet, I HIGHLY recommend The Four Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferriss.

Enjoy.
