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.

Our Monster world is growing!

Today we received two awesome boxes by mail. One box containing our first set of Monster stickers, the second box containing the new business cards for Paul and Ferdi. Together with Joeri Léfevre (most credits should go to Joeri) we created the first update to our Monster world.

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.
