Governor Hoke?

So, I guess Brady Hoke isn’t running for President, but I bet he’d get governor of Michigan. He’s up for some Major Awards. I know I’m missing a great opportunity here to reference A Christmas Story. I’ll leave it alone.

Speaking of governor, anyone notice how much Hoke looks like Governor Chris Christie? Here’s a pic I put together.

I ordered a new case for my iPad 2. Who knows when it’ll come in. I’ve seen pretty crazy shipping complaints on their Facebook page. Hopefully it’ll be worth it. Supposedly better than the DoDo case. Who knows – guess I’ll have to wait about 6 weeks to find out. The big thing I’ve been missing from my original iPad and Apple case is a place to clip my stylus. That’s my big issue w/ the new cover for the iPad 2.

Instapaper to Read it Later

I have a lot of news feeds in my Google Reader account. I use Reeder for Mac, iPhone, and iPad to view all these feeds. One thing I’ve been doing for a long time is sending articles that I didn’t have time to read at the time to my Instapaper account. Pretty nice, but since I get bored easily with a perfectly-working setup, I tried Read it Later today. I really like the Digest feature. It’s like a specially-formatted page of my items. It even categorizes the items into sections (design, news, business, etc.). So far, I love it. It is nicer looking than Instapaper.

Marimba is Like Papyrus

Ok, so I absolutely hate Papyrus. Everyone knows that. But I heard someone using the Marimba alarm sound. Ok, so that to me is like Papyrus. Take a few seconds, and pick another sound.

Oh, and while I’m at it, I’m not too keen on all this keyboard clicking noise being left on these iPhones. I guess that’s what we get opening up the iPhone to the millions of Verizon users.

My Value Coupons

Posted in My Work,IA,My Work

My Value Coupons is a site that really brings the social sharing aspect of saving money to the local advertising market. It was a team effort between two other guys and me. We enjoyed working on it, but got caught up at our “real” jobs. I focused mainly on the wireframes here. I used the 960 grid in OmniGraffle, so it would map nicely to the designer’s mockup and the developer’s framework.
