This year, more than 1,500 print and online submissions competed for the prestigious awards. National Geographic Magazine, which won best print map and two gold awards, and Internet Group do Brasil iG (gold) were notable achievements.

So what are the secrets to the New York Times’ continued success?

A couple of infographic résumé sites, vizualize.me and re.vu , sprouted up that use your LinkedIn data to show your career stats. Just create an account, connect it to LinkedIn, and you get some graphs that show when and where you worked. It's a visual form of your LinkedIn profile with a goal to replace the "old" and "boring" résumé that uses just text. Is this the best way to go though, if you're applying for a job? Other than commissioning a couple of freelancers based on their portfolios and recommendations, I haven't had any experience hiring people, but I imagine being turned off by such an infographic résumé if I were a HR person.

Design View / Andy Rutledge - News Redux
Digital news is broken. Actually, news itself is broken. Almost all news organizations have abandoned reporting in favor of editorial; have cultivated reader opinion in place of responsibility; and have traded ethical standards for misdirection and whatever consensus defines as forgivable. And this is before you even lay eyes on what passes for news design on a monitor or device screen these days.
Written by Inspiral On Friday, May 27th, 2011 with 6 Comments so far in Inspiration , Logo Design Negative space logos strategically use whitespace to create the illusion of an object in that space.
