@helveticade It blows me away that they get away with pretending.
With all that talent at Facebook, you’d think ugly pages like this wouldn’t exist. But privacy’s not their priority. http://t.co/FLZ9XEDRKU
@chrisbride Your idea of Apple TVs hooked up in meeting rooms: they’re all over here. AirPlay is so handy.
A little late to this, but I’m loving the sharp new ads for JC Penney by @ksegall and co. youtube.com/…=FEaXnPXJwe8[+]
@melizaho @chesterm8 Isn’t it the best feeling knowing you’ve donated blood? Reminds me, I’m due for my next round.
And there’s that S word again… “Skeuomorphism.” Whatever your stance, remember MS DOS and every desktop UI metaphor with similar roots.
It’s funny how “flat design” is talked about as a new thing. Pick up a history book and turn to the chapter on Modernism.

@trowdy The design trilogy is definitely worth a watch: Helvetica, Objectified and Urbanized.
@trowdy Love that doco and the whole trilogy really. Gary Hustwit gets it.
@fraencisbeats Nah, you might have a whole new market in Xmas tunes and jingles. #popefrancis
@twitDaveO Heard your plea and endorsed you for Axure. Also endorsed @kstre for Sheep Shearing, because he was asking for it in a way :)
@deanfra @trowdy So basically their government did a Myki for websites. Corruption or mismanagement? Makes no difference to the public.
@trowdy Trends-obsessed architects unleashing all kinds of attention-grabbing crazy without any sense of responsibility or timelessness.
Wouldn’t it be nice if job titles described what we do, not what we are? “I make XYZ better” rather than “I’m an XYZer.” Verbose but clear.
@xAbhishek Nice looking deck. Surprised to see ‘Yes / No’ button labels though. Slip-up or deliberate?
I find it helps to think more in terms of ergonomics and industrial design when crafting touch interfaces. It’s a physical act, ultimately.
We call all these things digital, yet the piece of glass in our hands we touch, swipe, feel, talk into… It’s more physical, natural.
To folks behind company twitter accounts: Why waste your eminence recycling news links? How about some original, opinionated writing.
I’ve learnt that product design is basically answering one question (“Is this a feature or a product?”) over and over without going insane.
