Once you think of the concept, it's pretty easy to make some demos to get an idea of how they would feel. I use Flash with a mix of keyframe animations and actionscripted animations and interactions. Sure, you can only really us it in the b

I think this post is confusing two stages of development. I would argue that MDP is a step beyond and MVP. MVP is not about marketing, word of mouth, promotion (although it's always welcome). MVP is about building the absolute minimum you

I wonder how they would plan to do the same thing on Europa? I read about a nuclear-powered cryobot somewhere http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryobot

why didn't they use a some sort of steam probe? Or heated probe?

speed. seems like I can try various options quickly. It would also be nice to snapshot your work so that you can go back an compare an old idea to the current idea.

Promising start. My mum is always on at me to send her the pics of my daughter that I put on Facebook. It would be cool if I could grant her access to my Facebook folder (at the moment I accomplish this through dropbox) but your product rem

“Do not pull all your eggs in one basket” Problem is, most of us only have one egg. Whether that one egg is backing your own startup, taking one job, freelancing for one big client. What else can we do?

I haven't found my ideal route from wireframing to prototyping. I'd be interested to give some feedback. I'm a designer by trade @ed_lea Your concept sounds great!

Nothing to do with "not cool". It's their customer service. I'd love to use PayPal price wise, but I just don't trust them. I feel like at any time they can freeze my funds, have final decisions made by very low ranking support staff (with

With regard to reliability, how safe would a service like this be to store your data? They mention "back up to s3" but this sounds more like archiving. I'm wondering about backups in the case of a problem, or is the data so spread across al

these kind of headlines are easy, the actual story behind it determines value for money. For example, this title is about as insightful as - BP spent £136,000,000 on a "new logo" ... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1350238/BP-attack

I wouldn't say it's completely misplaced. Any good product is a combination of parts, one part idea, one part execution, one part customer acquisition etc We love to see totally original ideas succeed, we feel like they deserve it. Actually

I always wondered why Angry Birds puts ads in the top-right of the screen instead of the unused space at the bottom. Then I realised that they make money when I accidentally click the ad when I actually mean to explode the bomb bird... I wo

I've been working from home since 2003. Holy crap, I just read back that sentence... Lately I've been thinking that I can't do this forever. But like all things that people do for a long time it's hard to find a way out. Despite the fact th

We got a LoveFile subscription trial with our new (internet) tv. At first I thought I had a limited set of films because it was a trial, but after some research is seems the streamable set of films are actually really limited. The functiona

I think MVP use is getting skewed these days. Lots of people seem to launch their product under the MVP banner as an excuse for features that are broken or sites that look terrible. However, they're actually launching that MVP to large audi

I agree that time spent does not equal good design. But years of experience is always required before doing good design in a short time. Always a good read :) "...you were asking me to design a logotype which would have taken me a few hours

I'm confused. I thought you couldn't just pop over to the US and carry on with your startup there. How did they manage to do that?

I'm not sure it's true anymore. The way something looks is important, but so is how it responds to user actions. This probably started with flash around 2001 i.e. flat graphics were not acceptable anymore but now designers don't have keyfra

I think people will still use 4sq with their location hidden as a sort of diary. Both 4sq and the user can still get value from this activity like recommendations, reminders, history of visits etc.

I would interpret it as "don't put your life on hold". Life is all relative, so when you compare stuff, you compare it to what you know. Getting married and having my daughter (currently 1yr) has given me something amazing to compare everyt

in my experience, they don't bother to send a reply. The way I see it, if you apply for a job that was advertised it's good manners to reply. If you send in your CV unsolicited then it's fair enough not to hear back.
