iPhone OS 3.0 has the cutest hidden icon ever!

Warning: the following short article can be concidered extremely geeky.
I decided to write it during my daily iPhone ‘no service’ feedback while I travel between the Monstercave and my Monster lair. Instead of using Twitter or checking my RSS stream I have a period of 10 minutes when my iPhone transforms into an iPod touch. Thus as Interaction Designer I have some time to play around with free interactions. So thank you Tmobile, without your crappy service I would have never come across my new favorite icon.

After working together with the same team for a year and a half De Monsters are ready for the next step. Our Monster family is ready to grow!

We’re looking for little internship Monsters. Little Monsters that want to learn how to roar, learn how to find the best hiding places under a bed or behind the curtain and scare the hell out of normal people. Being a Monster means you’ll be wearing a fictional (we’re working on this) Monstersuit. This means you get to eat Monster food, drink Monster drinks, make Monster jokes and do what you like all day long. As a little Monster you’ll be working on Blackbox, our Monster flagship.

a day in logos
Last November Niki Brown (@nebrow) posted an article about her day in logos. Inspired by this post it took me almost two months not to forget to start taking pictures of things I do from the moment I got out of bed and started living (it’s really hard when you are busy doing your daily things).
