  •  [비공개] The Economics of Commercial Open Source

    2011-02-10 09:18 am
    In the past 20 years, open-source has gone from a small movement to a major force in the software industry. Many mission critical and enterprise operations are now powered by open-source software and its influence on the rise of the Internet is undeniable. Open source is more than the availability of the source – it is a development philosophy that encourages contribution, transparency and th..

  •  [비공개] How CRUD Is Your Design?

    2011-02-09 06:43 am
    If you're a software developer or know one well, the acronym CRUD — Create, Read, Update and Delete — is burned into your vocabulary. These are some of the foundational elements of good software development, and each provides ways to keep your audience engaged. When you take any one of these elements away from your users, there's a good chance you'll diminish the value of their experience...

  •  [비공개] When Social Media Meet Politics

    2011-01-21 06:22 am
    In October, Naheed Nenshi was elected mayor of Calgary, Alberta when he defeated longtime alderman Ric McIver and news anchor Barb Higgins. Nenshi, a Muslim in a town known for its conservatism, wasn’t a favorite at the beginning of the race, yet he quickly took the election with 40% of the vote. What accounts for this unlikely victory, you ask? Social media. Nenshi’s team didn’t broadc..

  •  [비공개] Build your Team Like Wu-Tang (or Voltron)

    2011-01-14 09:47 am
    National Public Radio (NPR) ran a story the other day about The Wu-Tang Clan and their business and team architecture, so-to-speak. I never really put NPR and Wu-Tang together in my head before, but I was happy for the story and found it interesting. Parts of it were even relevant to my job. For those not versed in New York Hip-Hop: "The Wu-Tang Clan (pronounced /ˈwuːtæŋ/) is a highly ..

    2011-01-13 05:32 am
    It’s very exciting to see the release of BlogEngine.NET 2.0, which continues to shine as a full-featured blogging engine written on ASP.NET. I can see why they’ve jumped from version 1.6 to version 2.0 with this release, as it’s a major update from their last release.  You can read all about the new features and upgrades here. The administration section received the most significant over..

  •  [비공개] Page Transitions

    2010-12-04 08:37 am
    Old vs. New School Designers and information architects haven’t always been concerned with how pages transition from one to another. In fact, for many years we were lucky if we could get a page to load on all browsers, AOL, dial-up, etc. But now that speeds have increased, we can provide more immersive experiences across many media and form-factors. Unfortunately, we continue to restrict ours..

    2010-11-18 08:14 am
    Out of the box, The Archivist (our Twitter archival and analysis service) provides six visualizations of sliced Twitter data. However, there are some visualizations that The Archivist doesn't provide. For example, consider an archive on the term soundcloud with 388,000+ tweets. The Archivist will show you the top 25 users who tweeted about soundcloud. I can learn from The Archivist that the us..

  •  [비공개] Introducing Okapi

    2010-11-15 10:53 pm
    Fast forward to San Francisco, 2010. I was working with some great agencies to build HTML5-based applications for the Internet Explorer 9 beta launch. Another evangelist (IE9 guru Giorgio Sardo) had worked with was Joshua Davis Studios, who collaborated with Branden Hall to build an awesomely brutal app called Endless Mural. Endless Mural allows you to build digital, generative murals without a ..

    A Web of Decisions The creation of art is all about decisions. Artists start by choosing their medium and their tools. Then they proceed to make decisions about composition and slowly narrow down their choices to individual lines, strokes and cuts. But what if the artist isn't fully in charge of these choices? Various artists in the 20th century explored this idea. One of the most most notable,..

  •  [비공개] Like It or Not

    2010-11-05 05:33 am
    Many of us wouldn't be caught dead listening to John Mayer's music. There isn't a shortage of reasons we supply for our scorn, but one that usually the tops the list is "Well, he's a douchebag." The charade of reasoning always traverses a similar path: "Oh, Mayer is such a talentless hack. He can barely play guitar. And, all those tattoos? What, they're supposed to fool us into believing he's..

  •  [비공개] Luminance to Choose A Palette

    2010-10-29 01:31 am
    “I’m not sure about that blue. Do you have a more ‘corporate’ blue? I’ve heard that blue inspires trust.” Designers hear this sort of comment myriad times throughout their career, and it’s rarely a good conversation. Often the client isn’t even asking for a specific color change, but rather, a color palette that’s similar to sites that resonate with their personal tastes o..

  •  [비공개] The Latest Twitpocolypse

    2010-10-20 07:00 am
    There’s another Twitpocolypse on the horizon.  If you’ve developed against the Twitter API—and especially if you’re using a JSON parser for deserialization—you’d better read up. In summary, there’s a serialization issue now that Twitter is moving to 64 bit signed integers, since Javascript can’t handle numbers greater than 53 bits. And Twitter passes the tweet id as a number, ..

  •  [비공개] Introducing the Ai to Canvas Plug-In

    2010-10-13 04:06 am
    With the release of browsers that support HTML5 and related technologies, we will see web designers and developers build web apps that take advantage of the canvas tag to add drawing capabilities without an add-in to the browser. We wanted to build a tool that allowed you to take a drawing application you are familiar with and make it easy to export to canvas. We are calling it the Ai->Canvas ..

  •  [비공개] Translating Canvas with HTML5

    2010-10-13 04:05 am
    Design as a First Language I didn’t start speaking till I was four. And while I have developed a reputation for running fashionably late on occasion as an adult, I've been told other factors were most likely at play here. It seems many of us creative types, or generally speaking, right brain dominant individuals may tend to struggle with language skills during our early development. Makes sen..
