New style and old style

I don't know if someone read my blog besides Karl, but I do. At least I check for the links to see something interesting or new to me. I think these 2 sites are very interesting to see how we can create same idea in new style and old style. At first, see Diesel.com as a model of new technology. It uses Flash content to tell us their products' line up. When I saw this web site in someone's presentation in a Flash class, I thought the idea is really "Flash" - I mean it meant to be delivered only by Flash. BUT I found very cute and antique site which show same idea in "old" HTML skills. Soulwax.com uses 16 flames in one interface to deliver information about a band "Soulwax". It's cute, isn't it? I especially like to just expand and fold each flame again and again. The designer inspired by the band which uses old vintage sound effect machines, then decided to design the website with only old technique, even less CSS, with antique Mac. I like that idea; even though the technique is old, we can create something new and unique.
