I started a blog for my art experiments over the break, and to collect links to illustrators I love:

Shameless request for help: I really want to visit NYC this upcoming spring. I haven't been to my ur-home in years. A really good design, ux, web or mobile conference would give me some shred of an excuse. Do you kind folks have any recommendations?

I have been having a blast playing with the latest release of Blender. Wow, what a long way that app has come. A full free 3d modeling application that is actually usable. http://www.blender.org/

Made a triple batch of this chai recipe over the weekend - deeeelicious! http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/drink/views/S...

Oh Monday, why do you have to be so persistent? Don't you realize it's hibernation season?

Typography, how I love you: http://beautifultype.net/

Great article about the downsides of touch interfaces; I couldn't agree more: http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/techno...

yeesh, I feel like i need to make new acronym flash cards every time I take on a new client

I realized my magic mouse was utter crap for 3d modeling and upgraded to the RAZER EPIC. It has blinky lights and would make Steve Jobs roll over in the grave, but I love it: http://store.razerzone.com/store/razerusa/en_US...

Excellent article about Solitude & Leadership - I don't even know how to tag this post, but it's well worth a read: http://theamericanscholar.org/solitude-and-lead...

I can really get behind the Fridayness of this day

The anatomy of an agency - tooooo funny: http://bigorangeslide.com/2011/10/infographic-t...

It really pisses me off that gestures are getting patented. Apple, I give you the finger, and don't you dare patent that!

New Blog Post (I am getting faster at posting - yea!):
Running a Distributed Design Agency: A One Year Retrospective

I am personally so fricken thrilled when I get to work from my favorite shady bench at the local beach

Everyone hates working in cubes, right? Let me rephrase that, does anyone like a cube? How about offices in general? I am writing a post about distributed work teams and I am curious to get some subjective feedback and comments ...

Party weekend offsite for our staff - wine and dine and a boat!
