Armin Vit and Bryony Gomez-Palacio’s Quipsologies blog gets a redesign to better fit with the newer sites in the UnderConsideration family. The refreshed site employs TypeKit, using the fonts Underground, Skolar Web, and Coquette. The designed squares poking good-natured fun at other popular sites including Coudal, Kottke, SwissMiss, Draplin, ffffound, Buzzfeed, and Notcot, made us laugh. This is such a clever way to promote the relaunched blog. We recommend taking a look around. Aside from the good use of grids and the addition of large photos, Quipsologies always has worthwhile content to keep you coming back.

Digg CEO Jay Adelson offers insight on anticipated Digg site redesign
(official announcement made at SXSW)
“Digg has offered a first glimpse of its new website design, a radical reboot that not only alters the entire look of the site, but also ditches Digg’s rigid taxonomy in favor of user-selected tags. It also taps into the broader social web to help users discover relevant news stories. “Every single thing has changed,” says Digg CEO Jay Adelson. “The entire website has been rewritten.” The new Digg.com is still pre-beta, but Digg users can sign up to test the new version by visiting new.digg.com…” —Wired
