Inspiration of Late
Lately I have been rummaging through old printed material in search for things I really like. This is all part of a top secret super project, which I cannot mention. Most of the stuff I have been finding has been of actual printed pieces. I feel they are more unique, …
Apple: It comes down to trust
Now, with an official number on the table, some analysts look like jackasses for their pie-in-the-sky numbers, and others hit the mark. For the iPhone haters, of which there are a lot, they compare actual sales versus pie-in-the-sky and call the iPhone a faltered step …
Mighty Mouse is Back!
After writing a post titled, "When Your Tools Don't Work," where I had outlined my annoyances with the Mighty Mouse and Firefox, I am pleased to say, I think my Mighty Mouse is good as new.
But how is this possible? Well the other day I was skimming the web and found a …
HomeSkillet Fest Catalog
Recently, I had the opportunity to do something in photoshop/illustrator that wasn't webdesign. I have very little experience in designing things for the real world. I decided to wait a few months till I posted this to see if it was worth it.
Don't get me wrong, this …
Skybus Sweet! Like a Bus in the Sky!
It seems that every five years or so there is a splash in the airline market with a whole new low cost carrier. First it was Southwest Airlines, then JetBlue, and now there is Skybus. While I love the fact they are trying to approach the RyanAir/EasyJet no frills and …
An ODE to IE6
As I was writing up my typical IE conditional statement and creating my IE stylesheet, not necessarily for hacks, but for png fixes and such, I got all emotional and wrote a poem.
Feel free to include it in your IE Stylesheet:

Disassembled Assembly, aka Weekly Wrap Up 8/27
No, not my new band name (but keeps it for future reference), I just had a few things cross my plate, all of which were too big to warrant a twitter, yet too small to warrant their own post. I dunno, that could all be a lie as well. You never know with these internet …
Eleven3 Version 3.0
We designer types are a finicky breed. Rarely is something just right and we don't really like the words time and budget. Good work takes time, a lot of it. That being said, when I launched version 2.0 of eleven3.com I was really excited, I felt I had achieved good …

The Apple Drop
This thread on Apple.com pretty much sums it up. It's not that we early adopters didn't expect a price drop at all, we just didn't expect it so soon.
I have a feeling Apple will do the right thing and offer up some form of reparation. First off, we are the crazy ones …

On Embracing My Night Owlishness
I've been strictly freelancing for about two months now and still haven't found a routine that gets me up and at 'em as well as carrying a 8-5 job. Not that I am considering going back to that world, not any time soon at least. But the whole routine thing has me a bit …

Oh Where Have I Been?
In Alaska! I couldn't believe how much there was to do up there. HomeSkillet Fest went off without a hitch and the label was even able to tuck away a little for next years fest. I really enjoyed being up there this time around. Perhaps I didn't have the time to get …

An Adventurous Day
After my long stint in Alaska, I decided I needed to take the day off (if you are a client, i'm back on track tomorrow!!). I never really take days off as I have said before. I emailed a few people and talked to a few clients, enough to make sure there were no …
