Haha Alex, I'd imagine you already know this but the typography's quite miserable in this one. The vertical spacing's all off and the drab fonts seem picked blindly off a list of run-of-the-mill boring types. There's no color correction, and the placement is tasteless. Pardon me if I'm being a little harsh but this is just not too hot bro. It would take 5 minutes to come up with something better.
Right you are! I actually spent no more than 5 minutes on this. However for a non-designer this appeared to be infinitely more impressive than the gadgets one (showed to a bunch of friends). It's funny how the opinions differ so much in real life and internet.
