For the Chronic Phone Losers...

Did you lose your phone today?

At some point in your short life you have lost your phone, whether in drunken rage or accidentally down the toilet hole, I do not know or care. But I would like to share with you a very helpful website;

http://www.icantfindmyphone.com/

The design of the website is simple. With the heading on the top, the bold letters are balanced by the image two large circular speakers attached together by a light grey rectangle. "I CAN`T" and "PHONE" are capitalized, creating variety within the text. The sequence of characters all fit in the same parameter, allowing the viewers eyes to naturally flow down to the three boxes in the telephone image where you type in your phone number.
The interaction of words and image is playful. The typography used in the heading and the "HELLO" in blue at the bottom of the page adds varied interest. There are no annoying advertisements to distract viewers and aside from the Twitter and Facebook icons, the only other link on the page is the "Buy me a cup of coffee" page.
As I have said in my previous post, simple but functional designs seem to express the zeitgeist of the times.
