Irony, Greed, Hypocrisy, Bluster and Snow

brian on 2007.12.29 at 12:56 am

I followed a link today to this video, Sabotage Stupidity which resides on The Burton Snowboards website. It’s a series of marketing videos that are very clever, and very “in-brand” for Burton. I’ve long had a lot of respect for Burton. They were a pioneer (but not inventor) of the snowboard, with a distinct style and attitude that really set the tone for the whole budding snowboard industry. Snowboarding itself really had to swim upstream. For many years, snowboarders were second-class citizens on the slopes–if they were even allowed on the slopes. It’s a classic story, they were different and thus they were not liked. Of course, as with any situation like this, there were a few punks who made trouble on the slopes and gave everyone else a bad name.

What follows is a story of silly discrimination and silly corporations… and what else? Money.

Leopard's Input Buttons Can Have Color?

jake on 2007.10.29 at 11:09 pm

Back in college Brian used to randomly proclaim things he was reading online if he thought I’d be interested. He reenacted this over the weekend while I was visiting Boston. He stumbled upon some information involving Leopard’s rendering of submit buttons. Setting a background color removes Safari’s default aqua buttons and produces flat buttons with the declared background color.

Mr Dominey’s solution of setting a class or removing the styles all together works for restoring the default visuals. But it makes more sense to simply change them from input type="button|submit" to button type="submit". Using button instead of input reaps similar benefits when it comes to inheritance in non Safari browsers too.

Update: I spoke a little hastily last night. Brian thought it best that I test out my theory before mentioning it. Since I don’t have Leopard installed I had to use the Safari beta on Windows. It actually confirmed my hypothesis. Though in the beta Dominey’s solution actually failed. Can anyone take a look in Leopard?

I also rediscovered that Safari 2 does not handle buttons the same when using the button element. Not too mention IE6’s issues with buttons. They’re still usable but can require a little hacking… but then again what in IE6 doesn’t require a little hacking? ;)

News: I'm Apparently Going to Grad School

brian on 2007.07.24 at 11:56 am

On a lark I signed in to the University of Massachusetts’ website this morning to check the status of my grad school application. There had been some trouble with them finding various things sent to them, not to mention my belated MAT test scores.

There at the bottom of the status page, it stated

It is my pleasure to inform you that you have been accepted to the University of Massachusetts Boston. Your official letter has been mailed.

So, barring any unforeseen issues, this fall I will be enrolled as a graduate student at the University of Massachusetts in Boston persuing a Masters in Education for Instructional Design and Technology.

I will continue to work full time, and if I pull A’s, my company will be paying my tuition. That’s a wonderful perk. And of course, I will be blogging the revolution er, my education.

Myspace allows pound sign (#) for bands.

jake on 2007.06.21 at 08:33 am

Yesterday I was helping Kate out by tweaking the Myspace page for her radio program in Tassie. I discovered that, unlike on personal pages¹, on a band’s page you can actually use the pound sign (#) in the edit boxes. This opens up a handful more hooks into the tag soup that is Myspace. My hatred level just went down .01 points.

It’s no secret that Myspace makes me want to turn off my Internet. Facebook is better even though their new 3rd party applications are allowing morons, with a day of programming experience, to port over terrible Myspace features (I also like Virb)...

But this means that when they were writing up the code for bands section they might have learned something from all the mistakes they made on personal pages. This isn’t exactly a revelation akin to them hiring some actual professionals to redesign and rewrite their code. But if you’re fighting with their code on a band (and possibly a film?) page at least you know about this one extra hook.

¹ For some help with personal pages go to Mike or Henrik.

What to do at An Event Apart Boston

brian on 2007.03.25 at 08:50 pm

major UPDATE!

Yeah, clearly, I cannot read simple tables. I thought there was two tracts, but clearly I am an idiot. So the below list of courses are one’s I’m looking forward to, not just the ones I’m attending, because I’m attending all of them. The upside is I get to see everything! (So I’ve re-written the post so that it makes sense.)

Twelve hours out from An Event Apart Boston, and I’m trying to plan out what sessions I’m going to attend. It’s not easy.

As of right now, this is my tentative schedule.

• Good vs. Great Design – Cameron Moll Looking forward to seeing Cameron in person!

*Secrets of CSS Jedi – Eric Meyer This will be an in-depth exploration of how CSS really works, and how this knowledge can make your work easier.

• Writing the User Interface – Jeffrey Zeldman :: I’ve never seen the “Z-man” in person (He probably couldn’t pick me out of a line up, though. But why would he need to?) so this should be great. That and the topic is really interesting, the idea of writing as design, which I think receives much less attention than it deserves.

• Redesigning Your Way Out of a Paper Bag – Jason Santa Maria :: We’re in the midsts of redesigning one of our sites at work (due out soon) and am interested.

• The Web Usability Diet – Steve Krug :: Let’s see what Steve has to say. I really enjoyed reading his book when I first got seriously interested in usability.

• Selling Design – Jeffrey Zeldman :: The most successful designers can sell their ideas, not just make them beautiful. Z is certainly one of the best sellers of design out there, and I’m interested in hearing how.

• Interface Design Juggling – Dan Cederholm :: I’m always reading about how hard Dan works on his presentations, so I feel I should see how they turn out. Forget that his work is some of the finest examples of understated elegance, executed in fine CSS, available.

Wow, what a murderer’s row. I’m excited. I’m likely not to attend the post-conference party Monday night, since I live locally, won’t have anything to do during the hour gap between the end of the last session and the party, and thus I’ll be pretty wiped with the hour T commute both ways. So if you want to talk to me (I’m very popular) you’ll want to find me during the day. If the WiFi is good, I should also be twittering, so hopefully you can follow me on my Twitter feed.

Looking forward to tomorrow.

B&A Magazine :: Great idea creator

brian on 2007.03.11 at 09:12 am

UIE has a subscription to a magazine I’d never heard of before, but I think more people should know about. Before & After is a magazine intended to spark design ideas, and supply technical tips on how to execute them.

The magazine, which is available via PDF download or paper, has a unique format, lacking most of the cruft of other magazines. It’s essentially all tips. I couldn’t even find a mast head. It’s just cover to cover tips. Even the physical format of the mag is unique, have three-holes pre-punched for archiving your issues for future use. The magazine is bound more like a newsletter, and is only a handful of pages (ten or twenty?) but they make great use of the space.

Check it out.

Brian Blogs Again!

brian on 2005.06.08 at 10:12 am

Hello. Sorry to be so MIA. Lately, I’ve been busy. Mainly buying a condo near Tufts in Medford. It’ll be nice. Just yesterday I set up a page on my free Backpack account to help us track stuff. Very useful.

Jake and I also soft-launched a new blog on behalf of our friend Jess. I named it _fish_epiphany_ which was sorta an inside joke, but it probably only makes sense to me. I told her she could change it, but right now, Jess seems so enamored by the site, that she’s yet to figure that it’s really her site and she can object to anything on it! Jake thought it’d be cool to purchase Jess’s somewhat rare last name as her URL. Not too many people in 2005 can buy their lastname(dot)com. Check out her site, it should be much more interesting than our own.

I’ve also been working on another blog for myself and Amanda. The idea is that I could post stuff there of a personal nature that I wouldn’t want to muck this place up with. There’d be a combo blog (Amanda and I) that would be the front page, based on us putting the same category on the common interest post and then separate sections (defined by author) where we could put anything.

What would I put there, that I wouldn’t put here? Well this blog is somewhat intended to be general (progressive geek) interest. We don’t do much personal posting about how our day went, or someone’s boss is a jerk, or the gory details about my surgery. For things that are borderline I would sway towards posting them on the other blog, then referencing them here. I’d love to set that to be automatic. If I could have a check box that said “cross-post excerpt to Recently” that would be way cool. I think that function’s going to be a full-manual mode unless Jake is so intrigued that he writes it up. That kid is amazing, not only did he write this place from scratch, but then just for kicks, he added reverse-engineered XML-RPC so we could post from blog writing software like MarsEdit or Ecto Incredible.

A question I’m batting around is how public to make that other blog. I’ve wanted a place for information for my friends, for example should they be coming to visit they could have specialized directions to my pad. But that’s not information I’d want available to the general public. So I’d have to password protect it. I know Textpattern (generally the software we use to build sites when we don’t make them fully-custom) has the ability, but I’m going to have to figure out how to get it just right, so I can just have a post be categorized as private and it only appears in the protected site. It would not appear in public archives, etc. I’d love to have it be over SSL, too, but that’s a pain. I wish I could do that without having to pay for a certificate. I can create a cert, but then your browser will likely say “this proves nothing to me, since Brian isn’t a trusted source that I recognize.”

Thanks for letting me think out loud. I’ll keep this site posted with updates on those developments. Maybe Jake will post with info on his bloggish side projects, for his friend and his band… and once we’re done with everyone else, maybe we’ll actually finish our professional services site.

Tag Clouds

jake on 2005.05.16 at 02:49 pm

Everybody loves tag clouds. Well for the most part. I don’t write enough about design. Maybe it’s because we haven’t modified this site since it’s inception in 2001. Well at least not cosmetically.

In any event Zeldman has a little writeup about the subject. Tag clouds are supplemental data that users submit for “categorizing” the content. Naturally in a community where numerous people can all pick words that are relevant to their content you get a lot of unpopular data.

Tag clouds are starting to be very popular as ways to navigate where simple category listings would suffice. Which is the main conundrum. Tag clouds work well for grouping popular information but they are flawed in that they can not give you all the information unless you only have a handful of tags.

Zeldman’s right some instances need more structure and hierarchy. Hopefully after they are overused for a while developers will come up with some acceptable uses and swing the pendulum back. Tag clouds could be the next Flash.

Design Links

jake on 2005.04.14 at 12:31 pm

• //// COLOURlovers — A place to peruse and evaluate colo(u)rs.
• More Nifty Corners — Use some Javascript along with your CSS to generate rounded corners on specified page elements.
• Drag and Drop Lists — Gotta love all the fancy Javascript stuff coming out these days.
• Browser stickies — Some more Javscript dragging wizardry. Since they’re obviously tied to a particular web site, I don’t know if they’re much bigger than a proof of concept.
• Fixing Intermittent Fusebox 4 “Circuit Not Defined” Errors — I’ve started using Fusebox 4 at work for a couple of internal projects. I came across this problem when trying to put the apps on our server. Took me a while to figure this out. Hopefully this’ll boost their Google ranking.

• Recover Post — If you use Blogger this is a good thing. I wonder if I could implement some form of it here? I don’t know if it’s totally necessary, but it might be nice for version 1.1, if we ever get there…

All Things (Nike) Considered

brian on 2005.03.09 at 10:05 am

I’m dubious of Nike when they say stuff. They are after all a megalith of a company, with a notorious past in regards to labor. They swear they’re better now. But now, they’ve introduced the Nike Considered line, which they say is industry leading in its environmental consciousness.

The site looks to walk the talk. Hell, it’s even XHTML compliant. So that would make the line a) good for the eye, b) good for the earth (er, better than their other products) c) good for the web.

Multiple CSS Classes

jake on 2004.09.23 at 04:02 pm

I'm sort of surprised that I stumbled upon this on Richard@Home. I'm pretty certain in all my travels looking at stylesheets from around the enormous web I've never seen someone use multiple classes in an element. Have many people out there used this before? It's well documented.

To do it you simply provide a space between the items.

 content 

I have set up an html file for now which demonstrates this. I'll look into something that is a bit more permanent in the grand scheme of things.

This allows for even more reusable code. I have encountered in the past a situation where I needed to style certain elements while not others, like when you style alternating rows. I used a wrapper where the outer object could have two different classes. The objects were nested in a way that applying it to the unclassed object would have changed many other elements on the page. By using this technique I could have selectively inserted the extra class code and removed the wrapper.

So far I have tested this on IE 5,5.5,6, Firefox 1.0rc1, and Opera 7.5, all for windows. I will test Apple browsers tonight. It seems to be something that's just not widely used but implemented in modern browsers. I also will hopefully write a second draft which is less hasty.

jake on 2004.09.16 at 04:43 pm

I'd say I just thought of it, and feel stupid. But I pretty much have had this in the back of my mind for too long, and feel stupid. Althought this place validates and uses CSS it needs a little something more. It's not structurely sound. So I'll start playing with front end things as opposed to meddling with the underlying stuff as soon as I finish a few things. It is almost this place's 3rd Birthday and we haven't had any major cosmetic changes. Thoughts Bri? Anyone?

Friday Tab Scrubbing

jake on 2004.05.28 at 10:51 pm

• New Coudal Jewel Box Case - The comments have more variations on media packaging. When I sent out my portfolio I went to a distributor and got 180 or so white DVD cases. I still have a few ;)
• Actual Biggest OLED display - Apparently the Epson was a group of small displays put together.
• Oooo let's take a good couple movies and sequel them to death. - Brilliant!!
• Oh Shit! We were found out. All our atrocious acts are being brought to the attention of the public. What should we do? Let's ban the technology used to take the pictures. Then we can go back to screwing people over in secrecy.
• Dope enters an MMO - This is great, those massive online games should all have addictive elements.
• Frog Exhibit - at the American Museum of Natural History
• Underline Text in Adobe Illustrator
• Flash Player 7 for Linux
• Disney sequels could hurt Pixar - I agree, Eisner better not try to screw with Pixar just cause he fucked up and let them go.

Good night.

Friday tabs, including Optima, Naked Rollercoaster riding, SBC strike

jake on 2004.05.21 at 03:51 pm

• Optima Nova – I was reading an I.D. magazine and the font showcased was Optima Nova. I’ve never been up on the history of fonts, I’m a terrible designer I know, but I found the bastardizing of Optima especially entriguing. You can buy individual faces for $59. But too bad the family on cd is $897. I don’t think Brian and I could afford that. Even the $807.30 at Linotypefonts.com
• People ride Roller Coaster Naked near London – It’s even a new record.
• SBC Strike – It’s only for four days. But it still makes me grin knowing I’m on Vonage

Haunted Mansion Replica House

jake on 2003.12.02 at 04:12 pm

Boing Boing pointed me to an Atlanta Journal-Constitution article about Mark Hurt, a guy whole built his house to look exactly like The Haunted Mansion ride in Disney Theme Parks.

Something frightful happens every time Mark Hurt turns on the cold water in his downstairs bathroom.

The lights begin to flicker. A mysterious voice cackles, "Watch out for hitchhiking ghoooosts." And then, right on cue, a cadaverous ghost hovers for a few heart-stopping seconds in the gold-rimmed mirror above the sink.

Don't forget the movie...

className saves the day

jake on 2003.10.10 at 01:18 pm

A couple things brought me to research this technique. One was that I wanted to be able to style things in the manner of Jeff Croft. You can notice that on his blog when you mouseover an entry the links highlight. Their color goes from a dark grey (the rest of the text is a lighter shade) to orange.

The second was that a few web sites use the style display: block to create some fancy looking links. A couple of them are; Adaptive Path, and twothirty. Adaptive Path uses the technique to highlight two boxes towards the bottom left which contain pictures and some extra text besides just a generic link. On the twothirty page it is used to bring out their two primary services, website design, and web application interface design.

I wanted to combine these two techniques because to add any block elements, like a form, inside the link tag would function, but not validate. And Jeff's nice little highlight feature uses the :hover declaration on something other than a link. This validates, but does not function on many browsers.

I've seen something similar done using inline code and setting things like this.style.backgroundColor, but that destroys the whole notion of CSS. Also this would get even more unruly trying to style other elements within the text block.

So... I tried using javascript but naturally all I need is someone turning it off, and the whole thing breaks down...

Update: now I feel silly, just goes to show how testing throughly is a good idea. What I did is actually javascript, however, it cleans up the code a little. And the reason I didn't notice it at first was because I only turned off the javascript in Firebird. Firebird could still see the hover declaration and worked as intended. IE just stops all together. Oh well, maybe it'll still help someone out there.

To view what the heck I'm talking about, I have set up a local page. I tried to give the code some structure, but if anyone has problems with figuring it out, I can try and clean it some more.

New $20's debut today

jake on 2003.10.09 at 04:05 pm

The new 20's are out today and are getting plenty of press. While I find the use of color a great addition I don't think they did enough with it. Two muted background colors along with a variation of the good 'ol green is not very exciting. I think we should go the way of the Euro and have a separate color for every bill. That, along with possibly different sizes can make grabbing money form your wallet an easier task. Did anyone see what Matt Murdock had to do in Daredevil?

A couple of pretty, standards sites.

jake on 2003.07.24 at 10:12 am

Zeldman has been posting XHTML/CSS standards sites recently. A couple of them caught my eye as very well done. I'm a big fan of standards compliance, but making the site look good too is always a bonus.

The first is a weather site for Lawrence, Kansas. I really love the image swapping at the top. It has an illustration along the top that depending on the weather changes for each day. The colors are nice and the fact that it's XHTML is great.

The second site is a design group from England. It's fairly simple, minimalist, black text on a white background, but it looks good doing it. It also has fairly good semantics.

Jonathan Ive is a designer to look up to. The 36-year old Brit has his head on straight, and his ego is on permanent vacation. In a recent, impromptu interview with Wired, he leaves us with wonderful insight on the new PowerMac G5. Here's one of the many gems:

"From a designer's point of view, it's not an appearance game we're playing. It is very utilitarian. It's the use of material in a very minimalist way."

Cuban Council

The Cuban Council have launched their business website. For a long time these same guys have had a website known to many designers simply as "K10k."

3 of 4 Cuban Councilors are Danish. Does that make them better designers? Well, don't ask me, I'm a bit biased ;-) Of course, they're much more Danish than I. I guess that's why they're making a living from design and I'm not (yet)!

W3Remix. I was following the discussion of this, and it seems the design contest has as much to do with the IA a the visuals, which makes this the first of its kind contest! One that's not just visual, but has to follow and comply with standards and have decent IA, to boot!

Now, for you humans let me explain in brief: The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) sets the standards for the languages the web is built on. Their newest version of their website follows their preaching, but it sure ain't pretty. Now this contest aims to inspire the W3C to consider quality design to accompany their quality code.

Woah, too many exclamation points.

In any event, I finally got a job. Amphenol liked my work I guess. :)

Now I just gotta keep it, after I'm settled in and I clean up my messy room, the blog will be in full production. Basically I have nothing to do when I get home from work at night, once I'm settled and my body adjusts to waking up at 6am I should be ready to continue production. I've already got half a class that displays forms from queries to a database. Hopefully this blog will go live soon and you can actually read what I'm writing right now.

I've worked out some more development things that have to be done. Thus this will go live as version .04

The next incarnation will be written a bit better from the back-end and in turn add a bit to the template system on the front-end. Hopefully I won't hit any crazy snags.
