Saying "STOP IT" To Clients, And Meaning It, As A...
The last few weeks have been quite a doosy for me as I was covering a few project management duties for the head-fellow as he was on vacation. Usually, as a consultant, I’d need better pointers than what I am as a constructor. I have friends who can vouch for my skill yet they’d tell you that socially I’d need an entire training centre. Especially with what was said, by me, to a...

It's All Been Done... Or has it?
Hey gang: First off, I DO have a correction to make about my last post on the Microsoft Giveaway: I’ll be making a new hashtag for it. Just can’t seem to think of a GOOD one yet.

Stuff You Missed Sunday - Sitcom Timing
Well, from the looks of it, Sunday’s about to start or probably already has for the most part. What’s really going is that I decided to act upon some advice from a local gentleman PR guy, Michael Nus, about producing content for blogs.
“Got 30 mins?”
The answer intrigued me. 30 minutes? Seriously?! That’s it? Yeah, I was shocked, but at the same time, I saw where it...

Make Code Things Make Sense
Constructors. That’s literally what seems to be associated with our titles as web professionals. Mine, also - if anything.
And as such, we’re meant to build things. On the outside, the clients love seeing things planted and blossom. Yet if we, the developers, rip it apart: the fighter pilot/poker snub/veterans come out. We comment, ridicule, suggestions, praise, and everything in the...

Proto App Test Drive or The Day I Got Shout Out By... →
After Adobe’s recent moves to take the Flash out of mobile and acquired Phone Gap, seeing them in the App game is excitement within itself. Especially with a wireframe builder. Yes - an App that produces Information Architecture like it’s stuck at your desk, creating the site/app groundwork to alternative music and Redbull!
Adobe has produced an app called Adobe Proto for the...
