    The title of the article ("Timeless suits from London's Savile Row back in fashion") is a contradiction in terms. Either the suits are timeless OR they go in and out of fashion. Ca…

    Any time you're working on a multi-page project, you will have items that get used across multiple pages. Navigation is the most common. If you're copy+pasting anything every time …

    I designed at 2x (even pixel sizes) for a long time. Now I design at 1x using vector shapes. With vectors you can double the size and remain perfectly crisp. My workflow is now MUC…

    I have lived in Chiang Mai for the last two years. My wife has Thai citizenship, which allows me to get a one year renewable visa. Still have to do 90-day border runs (never figure…

    Article doesn't say a single thing about the iPhone 5, just rehashes the iOS6 press release.

    This is a bummer for those who use Keynote as a wireframing tool. By sharing a Keynote file to iWork.com, clients could see and comment on the frames online and download the file i…

    Well, except that didn't stop Apple from offering iBooks, Find my iPhone, iTunes U, Apple Store, Remote, Find My Friends, iTunes Movie Trailers, AirPort Utility, and Cards apps for…

    Am I the only one who is bothered by how similar the Bing results look to Google results? To illustrate my point, one of these is Bing and one is Google: http://d.pr/i/4KA5 Does th…

    It will certainly make me think twice before buying new apps, yes. In some cases the app simply won't be worth the extra storage required (I'm thinking music apps in particular, si…

    His argument doesn't make sense. Personal savings don't get reinvested in capital equipment, corporate savings do. Corporate savings are being spent on all-time record CEO paycheck…
