The WotW this week brings you designboom, the online product design web supersite, offering design mini-courses, feature articles, competitions, and more.

The focused portion of the website is its offering of online product design courses, which it labels as “aerobics”: thought-provoking design excercises that are created by designboom’s own Editor-in-Chief Birgit Lohmann to flex and stretch the ideation muscles in our brains.  While not focused on developing vis com, the courses help balance the left-brain / right-brain management of creativity.

A second key element of the site is the plethora of competitions that are held, often in cooperation with other companies, to develop concepts as far-reaching as possible.  Several competitions have already drawn in thousands of applicants.

designboom is a great site for those in need of excersising their creativity, and we at CDf highly recommend you check them out.  Find them at designboom.com
