MacWorld Week: The MacBook Wheel

Wednesday, January 7th, 2009

Happy New Year everyone! Posts are far and few these days. Sorry for that. But all is well, just amazingly busy!

In honor of both CES and MacWorld (sadly Apple’s last) I’m posting a link to a hilarious “spot-on” satirical news piece from the fine folks at The Onion. You may have seen it, but I knew I had to come out of hibernation to share it.

Please to enjoy… (courtesy of Engadget)

The Font Conference

Friday, October 17th, 2008

I’d been meaning to share this link for some time now. You’ll get the humor if you work with fonts a lot. The best joke is the one about Courier New.

Now I really do need to get back to work. Sorry.

It’s been nearly forever since I’ve posted anything. Life is returning to “semi-sanity” and I’ll have a few regular posts coming.

I’m a fan of illustrator Elwood Smith. The Sandbox (a site devoted to children’s entertainment) has a wonderful interview with this talented artist.

Cold, Hard Flash: Flash animation news and links

Tuesday, June 6th, 2006

A revised blog site for fans of Flash animation (like me!). The fine folks of drawn.ca describe it as follows…

Flash users of the world rejoice! Cold Hard Flash, the best resource on the net for all things Flash animation related, has been given a redesign. The site, run by the all knowing Aaron Simpson, who has had an extensive career as an animation producer and is currently working at everyone’s favorite studio, JibJab Media, has big plans for the site. There is a newly added Community section plus interviews with the Brothers Chaps from Homestar Runner and prolific animator Steve Whitehouse on the way. Plus, if you happen to be in Austin in September, you can catch Aaron speaking at Flashforward.
