March 2007 Notes Archive
Dealing with Microsoft Xbox European support is perhaps the worst customer support experience I’ve had. Ever. That is all.
Tantek Çelik’s Three Hypotheses of Human Interface Design is over a month old but new to me. Basically, the less your interface makes people think, the happier they are. If you didn’t already know that, go read Steve Krug’s book now.
TipKalc tip calculator for ipod is simple and brilliant - even more so considering it’s just a bunch of images.
I would love to use 37signals latest Highrise as my personal contact/network manager, but there’s no way I’m going to pay $12/month (their cheapest paid plan), to track a measly 250 contacts. I would expect somewhere more around the neighborhood of 1,000. More to the point: I’m not really the networking type and I currently have more than 250 people that I want to track. The internet takes personal networking to a new level, and Highrise disappoints in terms of pricing.
I’m loving the simplicity of Nutshell. I already have a place for my notes and todo lists, so it’s not for me, but maybe it works for you?
In case you missed it, Zefrank made the world a ducky place over the past year.
Following up on Chumby, check out this interface goodness from Core77. Love the Windows jab.
Chumby is a compact device that can be a clock, photo view, news reader, calendar and about a million other other things. It hasn’t gotten much press, but it represents something awesome: persistent widgets outside of your computer.
Just signed up for a sweet photo/video sharing service called Radar. It’s been called “Flickr for camera phones” but it’s more intimate because your photos are shared with friends only. I only signed up a few hours ago, but I can already see it has great potential. Check it out. P.S. My Radar invite code is “radradar” if you want to friend me.
