Ask me anything

Hi. I'm Matt. This has been a place of regurgitation and frivolity (don't fret, it will continue to be) but, with any luck and a titch of effort, it will also become a place where I think, document and be more me than it has been previously. Run on sentence much?

  Wow. Blatant rip off.

  mrgan:

  I mean, where to start.

  1. The new version of Microsoft Visio - which, in case you’re not cursed with a sucky office job, is a very popular diagramming app - includes a rip-off of Panic’s Transmit truck.

  2. They didn’t just copy the icon, of course - they first ran it through the world’s worst autotracer (check out that front grill!)

  3. All the other icons in the app are of this “quality”.

  4. Visio also includes a groundbreaking feedback feature called Send-A-Smile/Send-A-Frown. It is of similar quality as well.
