A Look At the Original Photoshop
People are well aware of how old Macs are (almost 30 years now, if you aren’t). What many aren’t aware of is how old one of its most beloved apps is: Photoshop. This is one we couldn’t be much more fond of, as we use it pretty much every day in our office. So let [...]
Happy Welcome Week, Challenge Detroit Participants!
This isn’t the kind of welcome week that many incoming students will be partaking in at many universities across the country insofar as it’s a time for work, not play. Although there will be plenty of time for the latter throughout the process, this week is reserved for Challenge Detroit’s inaugural class to prepare for [...]

Apple is set to make George Lucas’ work look prosaic. The Star Wars auteur was one of the first to depict holograms 35 years ago. Now, Apple is bringing his visionary foresight to the visual forefront… or are they? Hordes of fake videos depicting holographic capabilities for the new iPhone and iPad have been storming [...]

Olympic Memes: Web Design Edition
This year’s London Olympic Games was a 16 day event that, frankly, couldn’t have been any longer. In fact, we’re having a hard time remembering exactly what was going on before they began.

Macs on Mars
Today’s big news came in alien form. At around 1:30 a.m. ET, NASA’s Mars Science Laboratory, aka Curiosity, attempted and succeeded in landing on Mars. The 2.6 billion dollar rover made a dramatic arrival on the Red Planet that was described by NASA scientists as “seven minutes of terror.” The ridiculously complex procedure involved the [...]
Calvin Johnson (aka ‘Megatron’) Sighting!
We’re pretty sure Detroit Lions fans would have been pleased to be around Formcode this morning. Superstar receiver and Madden NFL 13 cover athlete (see below) Calvin Johnson was participating in a photo shoot right outside our office (see above)! Standing 6’5 and weighing a solid 240 lbs, we got to see firsthand why Calvin’s [...]
Ladies and Gentlemen: The Detroit Olympics
Ah, the Olympics are upon us. The quadrennial games have been sweeping the globe and producing more headlines than the upcoming presidential election, The Dark Knight Rises and Penn State combined. Incidentally, hundreds of spectators found themselves in Detroit last week for the first-ever Live Downtown Games, celebrating the one-year anniversary of the Live Downtown Program. [...]
