I’ve always loved the subtle way that the Aviary products keep with the bird theme (the EGG file format, the cool product names) and they did an absolutely great job with Dodo, their web-based time machine application.

HTML email gets a deservedly bad name mostly because it’s used to send out spam and marketing and also because it’s tough to work with from a design and code standpoint.

Chumby, one of the first and best use cases for Flash Lite 3 has raised another $12.5 million dollars in a Series B round. Chumby is one of the coolest uses of Flash that I’ve seen. Flash Lite developers can create their own widgets and deploy them on the Chumby website. It includes a touch […]

Spring seems to be reluctant to make it’s way to the Pacific Northwest this year. I decided to coax it along with a good spring cleaning in my documents folder.

We launched Photoshop Express tonight and the early reviews seem to be pretty positive with a couple of odd blemishes (the terms of service seems very odd). I’ve been playing around with it a bit tonight and I’m pretty impressed. I’ve seen it demoed a few times and really like the ability to roll over […]
