The changes taking place in the world over the past few weeks have made hell freeze several times already. The need for change, the ways to do it and the role that design can play in this context are all the texts of our Thursday summary.

Today`s set of texts also includes a portion of comments on user preference settings and a look at one of the potential trends in the gaming industry.

International Ditch Day could herald a hard day at work, but we remind you that golden retrievers also celebrate their holiday (supposedly always early to dig something out of the ground). We assume that you also have your own ways to spare time, so we invite you to read. Today we dug up articles for you about user-centered SEO, an agile approach to design and interesting examples of the direct sales model.
