No more cutting or pasting by hands

I found this lovely site where you can create your own scrapbook online. Another tool to create a mood board rather than actually cutting and pasting out of paper, magazines and whatever. You can import pictures from Flickr, facebook and other image sites. Start scrapbooking!

Why usability is a path to failure

I just finished reading this post from Adaptive Path by Todd Wilkens. A good reading on usability and its limitation. He pretty much explains usability should be elementary part of good design, and how focusing too much on it will sometimes lead a project to failure. Check out all the comments to his write up; that's where it gets way more interesting.

I love this tool!

I found this image to vector conversion tool which works so fabulously that I just can't believe it sometimes. I've used both Illustrator and Photoshop for image tracing, but this is by far the best one out there.

wordpress vs. blogger

I like the tagging and category options in Wordpress, but they don't make it easy to put a simple sub directory under my own domain, and also editing CSS and HTML are so much more convenient in blogger as you can customize it if you know how to code in those two languages, but Wordpress, you have to choose a template, and pay for upgrade if you want to edit the template you choose. For now I will stick with blogger.
