What do you want to add today?
I’ve been following some of the recent posts about Windows 7, like here and here. I found this choice quote in the Office UI Bible.
“Something we’ve known from usability tests for several years now is that most people don’t click on an unlabeled 16x16 icon. Sure, Bold and Italic and Center and a few others get a lot of clicks, but the curve falls off after the first 8 or...
Sounds like everyone had a smooth transition. Yeah!

Perparring Stacks 1.1.1 for release.
eSellerate contacted me yesterday. i honestly miss their service and nice attitude. but at a cost of 8%, well, I don’t miss them that much.
Just checked. My drobo has shipped, it’s in NH. Drives are closer in NV.
are the mobile me smtp servers down for everyone or just me? i’ve been incommunicado all day — sorry if i missed out on something.
worked on [redacted] for the past two days straight. new projects are a blast. it’s so fun to code all the base classes.
newegg canceled my drobo order. @girlcarew and her amazon prime account to the rescue. it’ll be here before the end of the week. yeah!
i ordered the drobo last night. i got some wd drives to stuff in it. the price on newegg was better than the best coupons + free shipping.
at Lulu’s doing support. it’s really loud in here though and i forgot my headphones again. damn.
Note to customers: if your email address has the word “spam” in it — there’s a good chance your email isn’t getting through.
OK, done as much support as i can do here. Time to head home. Need to pick up some coffee beans first. Tanzanian Peaberry, yeah!

Collage 2.1 beta 3
I’ve been walking through all my old email looking for comments and suggestions about Collage. Of course there are some really strange ones, but some of the suggestions are great. So I’ve been doing my best to add things in. It’s mostly very subtle stuff, but after making all those changes it’s starting to look quite a bit better. Check out the change list below for...
