“5 iPhone Apps to Boost Your Brain!”
i’d thought that these had been shown to not actually improve brain function. wasting time and energy is not “green design”.
this blog used to be about sustainable design, not free advertising for things to waste energy.
“wasting time and energy is not “green design”.”
no design is as sustainable as reuse, so to that end, we prob dont need all these blasted web servers either. go to the extreme, we should all move back to urban centers and ride bikes or at least use mass transit. and in light of that ideal, i dont think publishing an article about mobile games is that big of a deal.
