The web may not be the best medium to enjoy something like the Leather Face Journal. Even when you zoom in, a lot of the text it tough to make out. It sure does look nice though. Via.

Oh, No, Wait…….. Damn!
Posted in Cool Toys on Nov 28th, 2003
I dropped my camera on Thanksgiving. It turns out expensive cameras don’t stand up to physical abuse as well as I might have expected. I look down and I see pieces. My heart breaks. Then I realize the pieces are just the camera and the battery which popped out. For a moment, I had hope. [...]

Quite the Snap Shot

Wow, I talk about copyright a bunch over on MetaFilter. Of course, I always knew this, but it’s strange to see it thrown back at me in a summary that is even more incoherent and nonsensical than my normal writing. Oh, and loading the entire MeFi user list into a drop down list == bad [...]

I’m not one to post links to The Onion. I mean it’s funny and all, but most of the time I don’t even go there to read it. It loads slow as a dog and it’s just not worth it. But, Wired of all places linked to this, and well — it’s just too funny [...]
Problems in On-line Banking
Posted in Interface Design on Nov 11th, 2003
On-line banking is a fantastic feature that has really come a long way since I started using it about 8 years ago. I don’t know that writing out checks by hand and mailing them would really take any longer or be too much more cumbersome, but I certainly hate doing it. I know that even [...]
