What's that traffic light on the new iTunes window? And, it's nice with that new icon but couldn't they have rethought the entire thing? iTunes feels like an unfitting name for something that does so many different things (you don't go to the "Music Store" to buy a book, do you?)

The normal practice among web developers for icons have always been to embed them in images and use CSS to display. We do this so much, we hardly think about it at all any more. Pictos, however, is a clever way of taking a step away from this. Instead of using images, you embed the Pictos font and use that instead.

My favorite note taking app, Simplenote, has just been updated — or perhaps upgraded is a better word. Along with a new more visually appealing graphical reform, we're seeing tons of new features and updates to the service itself.

Fisheye, macro and wide angle lenses available for use with camera phones.

High quality short about the chaos that a little lottery ticket can set about.

Idea factory

September 22nd, 2008

Today has been about ideas. Tomorrow will be as well. To our help we have Linn Bay and Rolf-Arne Leer from the Danish company 370°. Maybe it’s because it’s Monday, but it feels like it’s been a really long day. The concept of brainstorming and talking about idea generation feels a bit off to me. They are nice words and all, but I’m having trouble putting them to practice. I guess I’m a bit skeptic to mind maps and the likes.

Presentation technique

September 18th, 2008

We’ve had Johan Westermark in presentation technique and body language this week. It’s been good. We’ve done some theater style acting exercises following the mantra “farting on stage”.
