RADness is short for Random Acts of Designess. The definition of a Random Act of Designess is where you surf the web, find a good cause that needs some help with it’s identity, or promotional material (or anything else design related). Some appropriate design work that you believe will benefit the cause is done and together with an explanation, it is send to them. Completely unsolicited way of helping a good cause just because you felt like it.
Hey, at the weekend I designed a funky new poster for that environmental group I came across on the web. I just really felt their cause was great but their promotional material wasn't. That's my first ever random act of designess (RADness), I wonder who I'll pick to do my next one for?!

An abbreviation of 'radical'--a term made popular by the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Still primarily used by people on the West Coast who find words like 'cool', 'awesome', and 'tight' to be tired and overused; 'rad' is generally considered to be a much higher praise than the aforementioned superlatives. Also used as a general expression of awe.

she seems quiet at frist, but she's actually pretty rad when you get to know her.
these pro skaters have it all wrong, it should be less extreme and more rad, like it was back in the day.
