Welcome to F:E:D - [fresh electronic delivery]
It was close to a melt down! I was locked out of my system for several days and I was beginning to sweat because all of the signups of our beloved F:E:D were trapped inside a dormant box. By some stroke of luck I was able to get in and back up the goods - there was much rejoicing.

So now that the focus is realigned we can get back to the industry links you've been looking for
.



TAZO Tea
http://www.tazo.com/
Love the hot tea on the side of the layout. Well placed. Be sure to check out the "tea selector" located front and center in the top nav. I know that isn't easy to build and make work as well as it does. Kudos to the site team.

Just for the 'F' of it
http://www.justforthefofit.com/
There are a ton of fun touches to be found in this site for FUSE. They have retro type and odd illustration mixed with some very modern font faces and effects from the 80's. Who knew - but it all works out.

Dana Neibert

Photography sites always catch my eye. There is something to the simplicity of just showcasing a poweful image that does all the talking. Remember that in your designs - it is always a great approach to say more with less.

PK06 - Peter Christofferson
http://www.pkmlta.com/
Mega talented Peter Christofferson new's digs. Flip through the posted work - all of it is just awesome. He also offers up a few link suggestions of his own (Truce) (Demo).

Samsung Brand
http://www.samsung.com/imagine/base.html
The subtle fade into an audio intro and ease back out as it glides across the plane showing you what is available inside is brilliant. Samsung's Brand Campaign brings you several stories and some great interactive layouts to carry it through.

IKEA | DRÖMKÖK ÅT ALLA
http://ikea.se/dromkok
It's back and better than before. IKEA's Dream Kitchen photography scene spinners are in a class of their own. For crying out loud just let it load and go for a twirl - it is amazing. Created by these cats Forsman and Bodenfors.

Manholes of Japan
http://www.frangipani.info/gallery/manholes_of_japan
Todd at work found this link and I thought this was a great example of design. So many variations and intricate patterns. Some look like giant coins just laying on the ground. I wonder if people ever take these, like they take street signs?
