Recently I have seen many well-known sites undergo a design change to give it a brand-new look. Below I list some of my favorite redesigns of 2008, or at least most of the recent ones for this year. These are in no specific order! TUAW.com: TUAW, or The Unofficial Apple Weblog is one of my favorite [...]

It’s been a long time since the blog has gotten a fresh coat of CSS and Design (or paint..), so I finally decided to sit down and take what I know about WordPress and create a brand new theme. So here you are! The colors are taken from my previous theme because they do go very [...]

I’ve always ben going back to past projects and fixing some bugs and adding some new small features here and there. But there’s always been a small part of me asking, what’s next? What bright idea will hit me next? Don’t get me wrong, I’m very pleased with Vine’s results and some other small projects [...]

Vine, one of my many web projects, has been a project I’ve been fond of using myself to gather news on certain topics.

Orange, the first application released under Simple, has a little feature that will backup the list you have made into an easy to read .txt file that you can save for later use. The .txt file will sit on the server for 24-hours so that it will give you time and download it and keep [...]

Orgoo is a brand new startup trying to combine a ton of IM, Web and SMS services into a single service. Though it succeeds in bringing them all together, it’s currently limited to what you can actually use. I know it’s still in beta so I’ll let it pass, but they currently only support the [...]

For those of you who don’t know, Google will be having a developer’s gathering May 28th-29th here in San Francisco called Google I/O. A ton of sessions will be held such as ‘State of AJAX’ presented by Dion Almaer (Google) and Ben Galbraith (Ajaxian), which seems really interesting. So if you’re in San Francisco and will [...]
