Skittles is one of my favorite candies. I love opening up a fresh pack, finding one of each color and squishing them together to make a rainbow. It just makes me happy. I’ve been eating Skittles my whole life and I’ve been on a computer my whole life, and yet never in a million years [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: You Can’t Un-Shit a First Impression
I was sitting in a café on University Place and noticed this hilarious sign. YOU CAN’T UN-SHIT A FIRST IMPRESSION Even if you don’t have a fancy suit, we’ll make you look good on paper. The Resumé Hero Resumés and cover letters for real people who want super jobs. I found it ironic that the [Keep Reading…]

Inspired by @woodlandalyssa, I decided to give Twitter Mosaic a whirl. Here are all of the people that I currently follow on Twitter and consider to be important and interesting people in my life. I hope you like them, too :) Get your twitter mosaic here.
Photo of the day: Push to take toilet paper
I snapped this shot inside the spiffy public restroom at Madison Square Park. The restroom cleans itself after every use, a total water-and-soap spray-down of the entire space. So naturally, the toilet paper can’t be exposed — it would get soaked! Instead, it’s hidden behind a trap door. When you press the button, the metal [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: Burn Calories, Not Electricity
While attending Smart Experience’s Web Navigation Design workshop with Jim Kalbach at the Center for Architecture, I noticed this great sign by the elevator: Burn Calories, Not Electricity Take the Stairs! Walking up the stairs just 2 minutes a day helps prevent weight gain. It also helps the environment. I did a little investigation and [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: But if you teach me to organize…
A few months ago I was walking down the street in TriBeCa and noticed this amazing poster in a window on Hudson Street. I didn’t have my camera with me so I sent a triptych-tweet with the words instead. If you give me a fish you have fed me for a day. If you teach [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: Warning: Movie longer than flight
There was outrageous and incredibly frightening turbulence on my Cathay Pacific flight back to JFK from Vancouver. When it was all over, my heart was pounding and I was just happy to be alive. I decided to turn on a movie to calm myself down even though there was less than two hours left in [Keep Reading…]
I’ll be speaking at IA Summit 2009 in Memphis
Another wildly overdue announcement (well I mentioned it on Twitter, but not here on the blog): My submission to the business/strategy/management track of IA Summit 2009 was accepted! I’m scared shitless and never expected it to be accepted, but I can’t wait to make it happen. The talk is titled, “Evangelizing Yourself: You can’t change [Keep Reading…]
I have joined the UXnet board of directors
In mid-December, the venerable Lou Rosenfeld asked me if I would join the UXnet board of directors. Saying no to Lou would have been wildly foolish. After all, he literally wrote the book on information architecture. Initially published in February 1998, Information Architecture for the World Wide Web, co-written with Peter Morville, is one of [Keep Reading…]

So you know I’m the UX consultant for boxee, right? Well they’ve been in private, invite-only alpha since June, and already they have 200,000 users. Today at CES they announced a new version available to the public. That means you no longer need an invite to get in. With the new version comes a bunch [Keep Reading…]
