First few queries worked, but when I told it "Show me tacos" and it honestly responded with "Searching for porn...". Either way, interesting idea - I'm curious how this might be used not only for interacting with we

Interesting concept, but I'm with SDGT on breaking scrolling. If it's a slideshow that's one thing, but when you're having me scroll with my touchpad (because nobody wants to click those tiny dots on the right that are o

Update: The above criticism was from trying it out on my laptop. Having now tested it on my phone I have to say the mobile experience is superb compared to most airline sites, though the ticket selection process is still a bit clunky (mostl

It has the same functionality as any other site, but many of the ways in which it's presented is far less easy to use (for instance, the calendar select is pretty looking but not nearly as obvious to use as even the standard ugly jQuer

From a design perspective this is one of the most beautiful airline booking designs I've ever seen, but from a usability perspective it might just be the worst (save for maybe RyanAir). The cities being laid out in a grid looks nice bu

Should definitely push this as a feature on your landing page. It's hard to find out what all I can/can't do with the service and the FAQ is a little unconventional.

If I lived alone I'd definitely sign up for a service like this, but for the time being my roommates and I just rotate taking turns picking up these kind of items. Likely a niche specific to people with roommates, but it'd be inte

When nesting is used incorrectly it's absolutely an anti-pattern (my first LESS project regrettably mimicked the HTML structure with nesting), but when everything is kept as semantic/modular as possible and nesting is avoided exce

Also seems to completely neglect that digital camera sensors perform wildly differently in low light situations independent of the actual image resolution.

Agreed entirely. The main point I was trying to make is that while testing MVP fashion is an incredibly useful way of collecting feedback, it's often misappropriate as a way to ship half-baked or poorly thought out products/featur

This is actually what I was trying to say, I just think my sentence came out a bit convoluted. If you can manually process something that doesn't degrade the end-user's experience, then do so for now and focus on more important fe

While I naturally want the UI to look nice as a designer, I'd personally have no issues shipping a prototype/MVP using a framework like Bootstrap. What I won't stand for is when a product being an "MVP" is an excuse

The idea of the campaign is sound, but the way in which they pitched it comes off somewhat dystopian. Rather than showing how you can now work in situations where you normally wouldn't (and it'd be considered rude), they should ha

Just be honest. In my case I tell them I'm currently the only full time employee but expect to grow over the next 12 months, but that doesn't have to be the case. I admit I sometimes feel like Smeagol when I use the term "we&

All great points. Personally, I am looking to grow my business to be more than just me and it was one of my main motives to start presenting myself as a business, it just happened to carry with it the beneficial side effect of being seen in

Agreed that there isn't any guarantee of quality work - largely it comes down to their public portfolio and referrals. At the end of the day there's a big difference between "I know this company that does great work" and
