In my last post I offered a few resources on where to turn when designer’s block occurs. This time, I want to offer a few on where to turn when you can’t shut your brain off and those creative juices are overflowing.
Have you ever been strolling through the mall and there, in one of the store windows, you see the perfect color for the logo you have been working on? How about sitting in a doctor’s office and great ideas for a new project keep popping into your brain? Your solution can be in your purse (or pocket) my fellow iPhone and iTouch friends!
There are a handful of iPhone (and iTouch) apps that every designer must have. For example, CliqCliq and ColorExpert are perfect apps for capturing and calculating that awesome logo color you saw in the store window. iBlueSky is a handy app that will map your brainstorm path and allow you to e-mail it to another person while waiting in the doctor’s office.

If these two caught your attention, Webdesigner Depot has posted a list of “13 iPhone Apps for Graphic Designers” that is worth exploring.
I am always on the prowl for new resources. Do you have a particular app, tool or method you would like to recommend? Please share!
