IDEO is the über-cool corporation, complete with corporate identity hand made by the logo master Paul Rand (you might know some of his logos: IBM, ABC, Westinghouse), that designed such ass-kicking consumer electronic as the Palm V and the Handspring Visor.

They have a bunch of smart asses working around the clock coming up with cool stuff (just what we need more of, don’t you think).

I particularly recommend checking out the Identity Card Project (see link on the front page) and the space vacuum.
