Perhaps it’s because I’m looking at some serious travel (for me anyway) in the next three months, but I found this article on redesigning the airline boarding pass fascinating. (I had thrown it into Instapaper a while ago, but a piece of Daring Fireball yesterday reminded me  about it.)

Once my 11th grade design thinking class gets done with their foray into ramen, I’m thinking of having them look at redesigning the New York City MetroCard, since its days are numbered…
