Apps are not websites Feb 23, 10, 7:54 a.m.

There is an alarming trend of iPhone application work out there right now and client after client can't seem to grasp what an application really is.

The biggest hurdle to creating good iPhone work is trying to educate clients on the difference between a website and an application. They look at their websites and mobile sites and say "put all of this into the app".

Is anyone else going through this? Am I just wrong in thinking that a website and an app are different by function?

So far in my life I traded design work for lots of coffee, some tattoos and now soon I'll be getting some tinting work on my car.

I really hope this isn't the case, but as I was watching the Bing-a-thon on Hulu.com I noticed the travel page looks a lot like Kayak.

Buying a Civic SI May 8, 09, 1:54 p.m.

I'm thinking of buying a Honda Civic SI. As a designer, I feel an obligation to buy a black one, but something deep inside me wants a white one?

What color should I get?

Welcome to the worst chess pieces ever designed!

"The game of chess, is like a swordfight. You must think first, before you move. Toad style is immensely strong, and immune to nearly any weapon. When it's properly used, it's almost invincible"

Macbook air / Adobe May 19, 08, 6:41 a.m.

Does anyone run Adobe programs on a Macbook Air? If you have an Air can you talk about how much you like it? Maybe links to performance reviews would work too.

Do design jobs exsist? Sep 28, 06, 7:43 a.m.

My last 4 interviews went something like this:

"We need a web designer, we looked over your resume and we love your work on your portfolio, lets talk."

I get to the interview and they are like well we need a designer that knows actionscript, advanced flash skills, php, asp, mySQL and we'd like it if you can also work on 10 projects at once.

Do straight up design jobs even exsist anymore?
