Breaking news! Google goes social with Google Buzz.
Google has announced Google Buzz early this afternoon, and is currently being implemented and will appear in your GMail account soon.
This makes GMail a social media tool, for you to share updates, comments, images and videos with your friends. It’s also available on mobile phones for easy updates.
Unfortunately for me, my GMail is on Google Apps so will take longer 
but please let me know if you have Buzz running on your account.
I have collected several news articles around the web for you to check out:
Stay tuned for more updates. I’m really excited

Deco Daddy - one of my favorite orange designs in this article
I found a great article at Smashing Buzz showcasing 50 exceptional orange web designs.
Orange is one of my favorite colors, because somehow I’m quite attached to anything that is orange flavored (Fanta and orange flavored Miranda, candy, cake and so forth).
To me the orange color is a visual flavor that bursts with vitality, energy and a lot of warmth. The designs being showcased on this post boldly uses orange with only subtle presence of complimentary colors.
Anyway, visit this link http://bit.ly/4RSEGK to see this brilliant showcase.

My personal thoughts after reading this article: http://bit.ly/5xKRyR
My passion, education and career, in design was inspired by fine art weekend classes taught by a former graphic design. I started since I was 15, spent many Saturday mornings sketching and painting, and really learned to appreciate people’s ability and perspiration working with fine art and craft.
