Dan Saffer (who gave a great presentation at SXSW about Learning Interaction Design from Las Vegas) posted a few links to some great videos from the TED conference. I especially liked this video of Malcolm Gladwell speaking about things we can learn from spaghetti sauce or as Dan put it, “why you shouldn’t design for everyone”:
What an epic weekend! So much going on surrounding the best little conference ever, Northern Voice. As usual, I’ll try to detail my experiences with photos and video I shot: Things kicked off Thursday at Federico’s Supper Club with the somewhat controversial (due to political sponsorship) opening dinner which was a lot of fun. It…
Gearlive.com as posted a video of the features of the upcoming firmware for the iPhone. Seems pretty legit to me and consistent with the rumored features. Some of the key features include: SMS to multiple recipients Google Maps upgraded to include hybrid view and cell tower triangulation to give you a sort-of GPS as well…
There is only a handful of days left to vote for the panels that *could* end up being presented at SXSWi next March. I’ve already outlined the panel I put together in a previous post but wanted to explain a little bit about why it’s important for your votes…even if you’re not planning on attending…
As you can see from the image at the right, I took the 2007 A List Apart Web Design Survey. You should too if you work in the industry (or want to, or do it as a hobby). Click the image to get more info and to take it. Should be interesting to see the…

The only thing really missing from it, that…

What a great video! I never realized how much things have changed in food since the 80’s. Back then, there was the Yuppie quest for ‘best’ . Now it’s the aisle of 20-30 different flavoured vinegars. I have to say that I prefer nowadays.
Isn’t it ironic, though, that years ago, cars were far more different from each other. Now, if you’re spending roughly the same amount of money, you’d be hard pressed to tell a Kia from a Toyota from a Subaru from a Mazda. Or a BMW from a Mercedes from a Lexus from a Volvo. I know I’m exaggerating somewhat, but it’s interesting that one area of life has blossomed into so much variety and choice, while the other has shrunk into a sort of bland, proto-platonic-auto.
Hey, I’m running a blog myself too and I was wondering can you tell me what’s the template you’re using? thanks.
It’s linked at the bottom of the site….theme is called “Techmania” but I’ve made a few modifications to it.
