Yanko Design - Latest Posts |  |
| Posted: 24 Dec 2009 05:00 AM PST The year 2009 can be marked as one of the most defining years for Yanko Design and its community. The year can be re-capped with the Best of 2009, but on the same note it's important to iterate our accomplishments. When the world was facing its worst global recession in decades, (including the design industry as a whole), YD on its part grew its outlook by innovating to stay ahead of the game. For a moment you can actually say that Innovation has been the theme symbolic to YD and this year’s best designs. I am equally proud of every member in the YD family. The team took initiatives and spearheaded projects that added value in every sense of the word. The Job Board has proven to be more effective in landing positions v/s recruitment and agencies. The YD Store made business sense to us but it made a stronger statement for the individual designers. It gave them freedom to focus on creativity, while YD Store took care of bringing those products to the design advocates. The equation is perfect; the designers get to do what they're passionate about, while YD realizes their inspirations. With our readers ranging from the creative industry (industrial, graphics design, interior, fashion design, ect) to the traditional industry (info tech, finance, entertainment, marketing, manufacturing, ect), we can proudly say that we have one of the most vocal communities where voices are heard. The innovations that you see on YD are all a result of those suggestions. This includes the interviews, reviews & Podcasts . To sum it up, we've had a pretty innovative year, and we hope next year will be bigger, better and brighter for all of us! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

| Posted: 24 Dec 2009 01:34 AM PST Rambler Socket maybe the solution most of us are looking for as far as extension cords are concerned. I mean if you hit "Extension Cord" on YD, for most of the posts you will see readers nitpicking and finding fault with the design. Here's why Rambler Socket will knock your socks off. It's this 1.5 meters cord that unfurls from a cavity behind its socket. When you don't need extensions, it's neatly tucked away. When you need it, simply pinch the sides and wind it out. After the deed is done, you simply give the wire a gentle tug (activates a spring mechanism), and it recoils back into place. Ideal for using with electronics like vacuum cleaners, hair driers etc where you don't need extension cords on a full-time basis. Designer: Meysam Movahedi     |
