4. Know your audience. Know your pub/org's
DNA and be consistent in your voice and tone.
Always consider how that reflects/connects
to your audience.

yourself. (There’s video games for that.)

200. OpenIDEO.com
OpenIDEO is a place where people design better,
together for social good. It's an online platform for
creative thinkers: the veteran designer and the new
guy who just signed on, the critic and the MBA, the
active participant and the curious lurker. Together,
this makes up the creative guts of OpenIDEO.
Ideo.org
A nonprofit organization focused solely on social
innovation would allow IDEO to make an even
bigger impact on global poverty.
