The Strange Attractor is a great Art and Design blog, which is worth checking out not only for the great work they post, but for their great use of Flash. Think about that, it's not often we hear "a great use of Flash" but TSA provides us with a great example. Their simple, geometric, nice and thick "TSA" logo is omnipresent and deceptively subdued; being light grey on dark grey. But as soon as your cursor touches the darker grey area, transparent geometric shapes pulse from the TSA in a multitude of colors. Further more if you roll over the actual TSA letters the whole thing starts really going bananas, speeding up and flashing with color. There is no mention or indication this will happen, so it's a great surprise. Because of it's positioning and size, it's inevitable first time users will mouse over the logo and trigger the fun, but even repeat visitors like me enjoy it!
