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.

Portfolio from Columbia

July 26th, 2009

When I saw this portfolio by Juan Diego Velasco it really reminded me of my old one (the original before this Western-inspired one) with the fence, ground and dirt ground (only this one is better executed). I would however have liked to see the grass a bit darker and blurrier because now it is very intense and distracts a bit from the content.

I like the overall feeling of the Clickfarm interactive website, even though I think the main menu could be a bit more fun.
