deviantART is one of the coolest most underrated companies on the internet.
The community is highly engaged and the product/s are powerful and inspiring.
Here’s a sample of art from around their offices in Hollywood. Thanks to our buddy Angelo (CEO of dA) for hosting the Uber team as we work towards our LA launch.
Fucking classic. Click through to see the rest!

I wonder if Foursquares hotel icon influenced the HotelTonight logo OR if HT influenced 4sq? ;)
What do you think?

Adventure is when everything goes wrong. That’s when the adventure starts…
6ft. Low tide. Slight off shore. Nobody is out… I don’t get it.
UPDATE:
Ok, correction: it was about 12-15ft. Heavy current. And a decent crowd.
Everyone was being pulled so far out I couldn’t see’m from the beach.
Turned out to be a gnarly work out after a broken leash and a LONG swim in. Never fear, I fixed it and paddled back out :)
Yes, the song is quite offensive…you’ll get over it.

Did this workout every morning this week… When it’s freezing cold and I can run, plus the hotel has no freaking treadmill, I’ve gotta find a decent replacement for my New Years resolution of running 7 miles a week. This is a decent start.

So excited to bring a breath of transportation fresh air to a city that definitely needs it. My take on Toronto: it’s laid out like Chicago, taxis are like Boston, and it’s moving towards the cultural diversity of NYC.
Had a phenom week in the T.O., be back in a couple weeks. If anyone in T.O. wants to know more about the launch, send me a tweet (@ryangraves)
Kanye’s Twitter rant and DONDA announcement
I found Kanye’s Twitter rant and announcement of his new entity DONDA to be pretty fascinating. He had the attention of the twitterverse captured and led them through his plan, the ideas origins and philosophies. While it was quite scattered at times, if you can get past that it was pretty interesting. Below are all his tweets combined into someone reasonable paragraphs so that you can read through in chronological order… enjoy, or ignore.

More clarity… I have no agency representing me currently… William Morris was fired after Cara lewis quit. I love Cara Lewis : )
I love being back at my fashion office learning and creating. It’s so challenging and fun and I’m surrounded by amazing people. They so you only live once but every time I come to work I feel like I’m starting a second life.
