Remember the QLOCKTWO typographic clock by Biegert & Funk from almost three years ago? There is now a desktop/alarm incarnation, as well as a new wristwatch edition, which will be available Autumn 2012.

Kevin Spacey has a really great monologue and there’s a nice voice-over/montage sequence on trading day.

Big Reveal of the Day: After 25 years, Simpsons creator Matt Groening spills the beans on Springfield: “Springfield was named after Springfield, Oregon. The only reason is that when I was a kid, the TV show Father Knows Best took place in the town of Springfield, and I was thrilled because I imagined that it was the town next to Portland, my hometown. When I grew up, I realized it was just a fictitious name. I also figured out that Springfield was one of the most common names for a city in the U.S. In anticipation of the success of the show, I thought, ‘This will be cool; everyone will think it’s their Springfield.’ And they do.”
