The Louvre, The Internet, and Content Curation
April 6th, 2012“I’d need a week to see everything,” says nearly every acquaintance of mine that has experienced the Louvre in Paris, France. With over 35,000 objects displayed over the space of 652,300 square feet, the Louvre is the most visited art museum in the world. The palace housing the museum features long, marbled hallways with miles and miles of art pieces and historical artifacts on display.…
User Research on a Shoestring
February 24th, 2012A resonating message from Smashing Magazine contributor Leonard Souza has been creeping its way into my projects lately, and I think it’s time I share: On the importance of structuring an understanding of the personality, preferences, and contexts of a target web user, he insists: “Nothing is wrong with heading to the nearest coffee shop, finding five to ten people in your target demographic and…
5 Tips For Thriving Alongside Your Web Development Team
February 10th, 2012“We need to stop thinking about the client, agency, and ‘employees’ as separate entities,” urges Net Magazine contributor Carl Smith. He suggests, “think[ing]“about people who have shared goals regardless of where they fit into a relationship,” as the ultimate approach to creating masterful web projects. Although his criticism of project contracts and completion dates does seem a bit radical (check out his article here: http://www.netmagazine.com/features/evolution-client-services)…
What You Need to Know About .Brand-ing Your Business
December 16th, 2011Business owners with domain name needs, start your engines. As of January 2012, ICANN will be accepting applications for a new type of top-level domain, which allows companies and organizations to register their very own .brand name.

Lessons in Perception: eBook Technology and the Fast Train It Runs On
November 18th, 2011This year Amazon.com reported higher eBook sales than print. The Kindle, Amazon’s digital book reader, was introduced in 2007. As TechCrunch reporter Jason Kincaid notes, “That was fast”. The surge in eBook sales seemly corroborates with the oft-muttered comment that “print is dead”. Outpacing print in four years does seem somewhat apocalyptic for the old media form. However, let’s consider the innovative characteristics of eBook…
6 Sites For an Inspiration Fix

A Love Letter for Twitter
October 7th, 2011@twitter, Yesterday I was forced to defend your honour, dearest @twitter. I debated valiantly to victory against an unabashedly ignorant cubicle dweller, a gentleman (nay, a villain!) without a Twitter account, and therefore, without the knowledge of your extraordinary value to small business owners, pop culture savants, journalists, politicians, friend groups, families, and nearly all other Internet users universally known. Although you are only five…

Not Your Average “Back to Class” Post
September 7th, 2011I’m not going to inform you that school driving zones are back in effect, and the sun shines much less hot now, and it is time to put down the Corona and replace your sandals with Barkers and to get back in the office to re-organize your priorities for the oncoming cold and gloomy seasons. Snapping out of the summer isn’t as meaningful as Zellers…
Didn’t Mean to Obsess About Steve Jobs…
March 2nd, 2011Apparently it’s time to toss out that nine-month-old obsolete Apple technology to make room for something thinner, faster, and camera-equipped. This morning Steve Jobs introduced the second generation of the IPad to a bellowing crowd at the Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco, igniting the Internet gossip channels ablaze with fodder than currently outcompetes Charlie Sheen and the Libyan uprisings. Given that the IPad 2 has been unveiled with the…
