Brain Freeze...

Written by on October 30, 2007

I have been working on a lot of projects lately. Most of them were very small in size, but all of them required that I came up with some kind of idea.

I have also received a lot of emails from people and companies asking me for advice on varies topics - how to create a viral campaign for something, how to do a certain thing better, how to create design for a car, how to improve the interaction in this phone etc.

The result is that I am now suffering from a severe case of "idea overload" - my brain has simply stopped working :)

I have spent all day trying to create a design concept for a new site. I am usually able to create draft design concepts like these in something like 30 minutes, but today I cannot even get started. Every time I activate that part of my brain that is supposed to generate ideas - it locks up and stays that way.

Damn I need a vacation - a long one :)

... I think I will watch a Pixar movie tonight, which is usually a good way "not to think of work".
