“…A true packaging breakthrough, the Heinz Dip & Squeeze dual-function package gives ketchup lovers two ways to enjoy Heinz Ketchup: either peel back the lid for easy dipping, or tear off the tip to squeeze onto favorite foods…The new Heinz Dip & Squeeze product marks the first ketchup packet makeover for the foodservice industry in 42 years.

    The anticipated redesign for the AIGA Design Archives, designed by Second Story Interactive Studios, has launched. We’ll have to take some more time browsing the archives, but we are excited to see how far back in time some of the collections go. AIGA has also posted a case study to learn more about the development process and design behind the revamped, substantial design resource. The expansive collections provide something for everyone, from A Decade of Sports Graphics (1987-96) to Fifty Advertisements of the Year (1973). There is plenty of book cover design eye candy too.

    Youtube to Get a Redesign:
Wired reports that over the next few weeks Youtube will be rolling out a redesign to “declutter” and clean up the user interface. This comes shortly after their new experiment with streaming rentals for “five different flicks from the Sundance Film Festival using their Google Checkout accounts” (mashable).
You can already start using the new design now by clicking this link. Reverting back is simple enough by clicking the “Return to the old YouTube” in the upper right corner.
