Wow, I searched for design and the recommended books are spot on! Congrats!

I am not related in any way to the creators, I just found it and thought it was cool.

So, in the end it's not two red herrings, but an extended practice within journalism.

Sorry for being a buzz killer, but I think an old fashioned newspaper about Web Development is as good as a telegraph transmission about a phone conversation. I do follow Web Design/Development publications such as A List Apart, and I often

Yes, of course everyone is entitled to an opinion. I'm not saying they should shut up, I'm saying I'm baffled as to why they pick the core strength of the fastest growing companies and say "this is wrong". Perhaps it's that they are in the

I'm not sure why journalists (in this case, the co-founder of a magazine) feel qualified to criticize immensely successful Tech companies. There was a recent article stating that Google should push the Android Platform towards—guess what—an

I'm a designer and I understand what you mean. There are two different things going on here... 1. Design also has its own "architecture astronauts", people who theorize a lot but don't get things done. They are usually in academia, since th

The article—appropriately, perhaps—reads like a high school essay from a smart student. Grammatically correct, logical, structured but stiff. I guess the biggest thing that college gave me wasn't knowledge, it was a firing range where I cou

I get the feeling spamming is often the work of people who can ignore the fact that some economic activities are harmful or bothersome to the people they are trying to reach, and to their own brand (beyond the erectile dysfunction category,

Nice! You can try to replicate the curves on this CSS3 easing tool I built: http://cssglue.com/cubic Not all curves are possible due to limitations in the CSS timing functions.

Also, don't ever ask lawyers if there's any liability in your interface. I once had a lawyer loving client who wanted to create a social site, he consulted with his lawyer and he came back to us asking that every single piece of the interf

Perhaps I'm missing something (I've never lived in lawsuit happy US), but I've relied on basic human decency all my life and it has turned out fine for me. I think there is a time for lawyers, but it's not when you are building your first p

That would be Google Profiles, but only time will tell if it's going to take off.

As of today, Google doesn't have a social platform to leverage +1. Without it, your upvotes are effectively going into a blackhole. Nobody will see them, so what's the point of upvoting and putting the button on your site?

Google is trying to throw it's weight at something it's competitors already do better. Even if it does catch on, we all lose with the social sharing craze that is littering the web. More clutter, slower loading pages, and gimmicks to get to

Good resource! Just a little fix: Dojo is linked to backbone.js.

Lack of complaints are never an indicator of success. For this particular case, I'd look at the total number of followers. It's easier making the bothersome disappear (unfollowing) than to formulate a complaint to the author. If you want to

Edward Tufte does leave a deep impression. I stumbled upon his books in my university's library, about eight years ago, while studying design. Some years later—while going through files on my old computer— I found a pair of schedules. I'd d

Make sure you check the SVG/Raphael link on the top right corner, which is the same sample done with SVG.

I'm always amused at the "why don't you try building it yourself" response developers give when they're asked this kind of question. The amount of knowledge you need to execute an idea is staggering. Deep down they know there's a 99.9% chan

You'd need a bunch of callbacks to chain the animations in jQuery, plus the cost of including the library. The Smashing Magazine article is not using the shorthand declarations for -webkit-animation, which would compact it much more. Give i

I grew up in Mexico, and I had more interesting professional development opportunities in Spain, and later Canada. I've actually saved enough for a two year runaway in Mexico, which I will do in August to create a MVP. Mexico (or any 'third

I agree with you on all points. The guy is on top of a pyramid scheme where there's only room for a few. However, it is posible to live a quality life in third world countries. This was the view of an apartment I had in Puerto Vallarta: ht

When I have a programming problem, often the answer comes to me while writing the question on Stack Overflow. Trying to explain your code to others forces you to simplify it by removing anything that is not relevant to the problem itself.

The measure of a good programmer is in the quality of the code he produces. The measure for a good business guy is the value he has generated for himself and for others. If a business person hasn't been able to generate value for himself (b

While the new design is better visually, it follows a trend that I've seen the past few years and that I don't particularly like: it dedicates almost all of the real estate trying to convince you that the Khan Academy is great, while downpl
