Logo design trends 2008


This website gives an interesting overview of some recent trends in logo design. The examples aren't amazing, but it breaks down some of the newer trends, and can at least give you clues about whether your design ideas have already been "done".

OCAD Green Exchange this week














Green Exchange
October 22 & 23, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily
In conjunction with Waste Reduction Week, OCAD's Sustainability Task Force invites OCAD students, faculty and staff to exchange or recycle outdated electronics. Many people have the knowledge, but do not have the means to properly recycle technology. Over the course of two days, the OCAD community can bring in outdated electronics and either leave it for another person to reuse or to have it properly recycled. Drop off old mobile phones, computers and related items (including peripherals like keyboards, mice, cables, monitors, printers, PDAs etc.), old TVs, VCRs or other entertainment devices, as well as old batteries and printer cartridges. What can be reused will be salvaged by those that want it, while non-salvageable will be collected by GreenTec for proper dismantlement, salvage, recycling and disposal.
