Last April I had the honor of contributing a guest list on the 10 Best UX (User Experience) Design blogs [the list, my blog post] for Six Apart’s Blogs.com. 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…]

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.

I get my hair cut at Bumble & bumble‘s downtown salon. Not only does Dante always give me a great cut, but Bb creates one of the most exceptional customer experiences of any service in my day-to-day life.

His words so beautifully capture something I’ve felt for a long time, and I wanted to share it with all of you. “Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or [Keep Reading…]

In honor of Wednesday’s near-blizzard in NYC, I wanted to share this winter treat with all of you. “You’ve been naughty, so here’s the scoop. You’re getting nothing but Snowman Poop!” A few months ago I was visiting my friend in Mystic, CT, and we went to B.F. Clyde’s Cider Mill where they were selling [Keep Reading…]
My Happy Cog Avatar Has Arrived
I’ve been consulting for Happy Cog for a year and a half, but when this arrived in my inbox yesterday, I became a true Happy Cogger. Many thanks to Kevin Cornell for creating it. Everyone at Happy Cog has one of these cuties, and now I do, too. So what do you think…does it look [Keep Reading…]
The Excellence better known as Interaction10 #ixd10
I just got home from Savannah last night, and I’m already missing everyone terribly. The four days I spent there at IxDA’s Interaction10, their third annual conference, was one of the best conference experiences I’ve ever had (and as you may know, I go to a lot of conferences!). Not only is Savannah a wonderfully [Keep Reading…]
