It’s a simple question, there’s an event going on and there’s lots of media coverage from both news sources and blogs but how am I going to get all of it in one place? I’m a bit of a design geek plus I work with Daylife so I thought it would be interesting to combine those two things and pull in everything that is going on with ICFF. I’ve built a custom page http://topics.designnotes.info/page/icff with a couple different headline modules that are based both on being the latest headlines and others that capture the older but more in depth articles. The thing is though, a lot of info is going to be passed along different media channels, so I’ve also included people talking via twitter about ICFF—that way a I can get the latest listings asap and not have to worry about searching twitter for that. There’s also a ton of people that will be uploading their pics to flickr about ICFF, so I’ve put that module in too. The last thing I wanted to include was a lot of jumping points to other topics that are related to Design Week so I can go deeper on their news.

To save you the time here’s all the topics I’ve chosen to cover:

What’s great for me is that I’ll be able to find info that doesn’t rely on any one source, so the design world and blogs can’t slant things in just one perspective—plus I’ll still be walking around to a lot of openings and be heading inside the ICFF. So I can blog about the things that grab me and allow others to talk about what’s important to them. And—if there’s something missing on the page that you wished was there, please let me know.
