I still regularly read almost all of the blogs I listed, but recently realized that there are many new, revamped or lesser known UX blogs that [Keep Reading…]

Photo of the day: Bags on Board
My cousins have an adorable Boston Terrier named Luna. She likes to play tug of war, and fetch, and tear her toys apart. And unlike the dogs I had growing up, she also likes to poop outside. Over the summer my cousins were taking Luna for a walk and I noticed their completely amazing leash. [Keep Reading…]

Sketching made easier by UI Stencils
Yes, I’m obsessed with Konigi’s Omnigraffle wireframe stencils, but what if you could have real-life stencils to help you sketch? You can. They’re called UI Stencils, and they’re made by Design Commission, an experience design agency in Seattle. Drawing can be intimidating for a lot of folks, and the fear of not being a “good [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: Penn Station, Charging Station
I’ve found myself at Penn Station quite a lot lately. You see, I’m working on the project of a lifetime with Happy Cog Philadelphia, so I visit by train from time-to-time. A few weeks ago I observed some unusual behavior: I’ve passed by this column dozens of times when I walk into the Amtrak area [Keep Reading…]

Fire your worst customers
In Seth Godin’s recent blog post, more, More, MORE!, he makes the unpopular-but-wise assertion that until you fire your worst customers, you’ll never be able to do your best.

Photo of the day: A Restroom on a Mission
You couldn’t pay me to use the restroom at NYC’s Penn Station, but I didn’t think twice about needing to pee when I was at Philadelphia’s 30th Street Station recently. Perhaps it was their warm welcome and solemn promise to take care of me that put me at ease. OUR MISSION is to provide the [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: Makeshift Mailbox
Beard Papa claims to make the world’s best cream puffs, and they aren’t lying. Fortunately for the folks at New Work City, they have a location just around the corner. Unfortunately, it’s been “closed for maintenance” since November. I walked by recently and noticed a FedEx box labeled MAIL BOX taped to the outside of [Keep Reading…]
