The viral success of text donations to the relief effort in Haiti has helped raise over $3 million so far. Sam Eaton explores why the campaign has been so successful and potential caveats to the giving strategy.
I started this blog as a place to watch and showcase the contributions of those looking for ways to continue and push what Design can be in today’s society. I see that Design has great potential to positively impact our world, and a large part of this move forward requires us to examine our ideas and roles from every angle.
Throughout my observations, I plan to especially keep an eye out for students who are looking to participate in this conversation. I hope this can be a forum that is not only devoted to capturing and disseminating the work that is breaking traditional boundaries of disciplines, problem solving, and design thinking, but to also be a place where current works and ideas can be discussed, critiqued and developed.
Check out my other design blog where my friend, Brandy, and I post things we are working on and things we like.
