The most important measure of success to me is whether everyone in the company enjoys their work. Money feeds into that, but so does the quality of our products, the competence of coworkers, and happiness of customers.

HTML5 - Periodic Table of the Elements

Very nice way of representing all the W3C proposed HTML5 tags. I think it is even the first time you can truly get a sense of what it is in single page/graphic.

The Process

What if there were no stop signs and a major corporation were charged with inventing one?

If you wish to know what it is to work with clients sometime in an advertising agency. This is mostly it.

Flashpoint I was looking the other day for another good TV series I haven’t seen. I have found Flashpoint on TV.com and begun to watch it on iTunes. Flashpoint is about an elite tactical unit, called the Strategic Response Unit (SRU), within a Canadian metropolitan police force. The SRU are tasked to resolve extreme situations that regular officers are not trained to handle including hostage-taking, bomb threats and heavily armed criminals. Equipped with high-tech tools and a cache of weapons and explosives, members use negotiation tactics and intuition to try to avoid the use of force. First it is Canadian and I’m truly impressed by the quality of the show. It’s been five shows that I have watched now and I can’t find anything wrong to say about it. It’s well written and played. It is certainly one of the most emotional and entertaining cop shows that I have ever seen. 3 seasons of Flashpoint have already been produced. Flashpoint on Wikipedia

The HTML5 Experiments of Hakim El Hattab

Very nice HTML5 experiments. I very like the game Sinous. It could be a winner on the iPhone.

Today, Tumblr passed one BILLION posts! I never imagined we would make it this far so quickly, and apparently neither did Jacob when he designed the About page. The things you do with Tumblr continue to blow our minds. :) Tumblr have made blogging an effortless thing to do. The only thing you need to think about is what matter, the writing. The dashboard, post by email, post by phone, the iPhone, Android and Blackberry apps are simply one of the way to post to your blog, but nothing will ever beat their simple bookmarklet that do it all. Thanks Tumblr for having made blogging a simple thing to do.
