I found a new site this evening called oligoville.com. It's created by a small group of people who decided it was a great idea to build a community where both designers and musicians can socialize and sell their stuff. It's hip, it looks good, and they have great content. And it's only the beginning. Check it out:

What's your favorite letter?
I found this via Samantha Warren's Bad Ass Ideas:

Czech Design
I can't remember where I came across Tomas Pojeta's site, but I re-found it in my "pretty sites" bookmarks folder. He asked people to tell him what they would like to see on his site and then he put the best ideas there, and has come up with one of the funnest sites around. Scroll up and down to see the full design.
