    as for what designers can do, that is a good question. i was just thinking about this hellobotto..

    musicians would normally have a benefit concert, but they arent making stuff specifically for it..

    but yep, designers dont really have a means to contribute without spending money to make money.

    I guess i feel uneasy for the lack of accountability.. while i would assume the guilt of not donating the money to Japan would drive people, watching all this "Pearl Harbor" and "God Is awesome cause he gave japan a earthquake" shit.. really makes me wonder about the process of giving this money.

    do people really need to have a product to compel them to give money? cant we just give money without getting something in return?

    I am not cynical about people intentions, i think its noble for people to help, i am just curious if it helps that you have to create something to raise the money.
