Is it me or is the error page in Google’s Chrome web browser just the best example of design since the inception of Google’s logo?

Zigabid Interface Update

September 15th, 2008

View Comments

After receiving a great deal of feedback and suggestions both from customers and our internal team we have decided to make some design revisions to Zigabid.  Below is a sneak peek of the homepage which should find its way to your browser in the coming weeks. A few key elements of the interface include a prominent video explanation of Zigabid’s products and services, a simplified process diagram, a prominent call-to-action to view tutorials and a explanation of the most active events diagram.

LinkedIn, redesign your paging

August 27th, 2008

View Comments

LinkedIn is a very powerful networking site for professionals, and I use it frequently. That said, the UI team needs to review how they handle paging. Below is a snippet of a page that was rendered this afternoon with results for members who have attended the University of Arizona.  The usability of this interface is about a D+ in my book.

LeRoi Moore dead at 46

August 19th, 2008

View Comments

It’s been a number of years since I’ve toured with the Dave Matthews Band. However, I still remain a loyal fan and the band surely had an impact on my life and music interests/aspirations.  My saxophone just might be put to rest indefinitely.

“LeRoi Moore, saxophonist and founding member of Dave Matthews Band, died unexpectedly Tuesday afternoon, August 19, 2008, at Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center in Los Angeles from sudden complications stemming from his June ATV accident on his farm near Charlottesville, Virginia. Moore had recently returned to his Los Angeles home to begin an intensive physical rehabilitation program.”

DMV – secure your trash bins.

Yes its true. I spent the morning at the Department of Motor Vehicles. They have the best trash bins I’ve seen in some time. The bins clearly read “IDENTITY THEFT is on the rise. This is not a secure trash bin.” I suppose its my ocd shredding skills have some benefit.

The first day of the rest of my life

July 24th, 2008

View Comments

Well, a suppose this is a glimpse into the future and past. Yesterday we did a soft-launch of Zigabid.com so that is an ounce of stress that has been lifted. It is a strange feeling, I thrive off creation and previously at Juxt Interactive and Go Farm we released multiple projects each year, however Zigabid was a 19-month creation.

As far as the past goes, I re-connected with a old friend last night… It was insightful, I realized that not only do I have a love for music, but I have also have a knack for collecting rare and odd tunes that play a role in my life. I believe I first heard Scatman in a club in Asia or the Middle East in the early 90’s. Cheers.

Coldplay Opening Night and The Getty

July 15th, 2008

View Comments

So, for all folks who believe work limits my personal life, you are probably correct. However, I did make an exception. I took Monday off, to visit the Getty which probably requires 3-5 visits to view the entire campus of the museum and its grounds. However, this was just a build up for my reunion with my love for music. Coldplay, isn’t quite U2 yet — but they are well on their way. This Monday marked the beginning of the Coldplay tour in Los Angeles. Due to the unique layout of their stage it was difficult to snap a shot, but below you can see a glance of the band and of the Getty which hosts probably the best views of LA.

Why is there so much red tape with zoning?

July 11th, 2008

View Comments

I can’t really figure out why most cities make zoning such a big deal. We moved into our new offices in March of this year, and still haven’t had our sign approved. If my math is correct that means we’ve spent over 1/3 of a year without a sign… that seems ridiculous to me. Wouldn’t the city want us to prosper? Well, that aside we finally were allowed to have our logo placed on the door. Very exciting after such a long time.
