    Good print designers will know the possibilities and limitations of the medium they're working in. I think the same can be said about the screen medium.

    Font rendering: I realize jMockups might only render "web-safe" fonts. But I would love to see an iteration that incorporates any typeface shared between a team of designers who ha…

    I love where this is going. One thing that I would like to see included, which is absolutely essential for the way I design website is line-height: it is the core structure of my d…

    I love this idea, but how come they couldn't include this functionality into the Magic Mouse too? (Maybe next version?)

    Other crazy factors involved: 1. You can't smell the product when you're in the store, so you have to know more about the product either through brand awareness or referral. 2. Lik…

    I'm loving this new advertising strategy, but I'm still not going to buy this product. They've done a great job of making more people aware of the product, but I can't shake the im…

    Most video games have a pretty strict narrative: Finish the story or die. The ending of that story is often firm: I've rarely come upon a video game that actually has different out…

    I think Honda and Toyota are designing these devices for their growing elderly population in Japan.

    It's good to read this again because I couldn't put my finger on it before: despite the ingenuity of the storage system, this guy is living with so much stuff that it feels claustr…

    Ahh, ok, so blind speculation about even positive outcomes is dangerous (and I can see how this can be just as abused as shorting). So, I can see why paying attention to who is sho…

    Is there social value in shorting?

    The value of investing (going long) in a business makes sense to me on a social level: it's people putting faith in other people that they will offer a good business to the market …

    I will gladly pay for a phone outright if the carriers offer a data-centric plan for $50 a month with no commitment. Until then, I'm hiding out this year with Google Voice and my V…

    Why does an unsubsidized iPhone cost $300 more than an iPod?

    The iPhone 3G 8gb = $500 unsubsidized iPod Touch 8gb = $200 Do the raw materials and the technical support costs for the mobile component in an iPhone really value at an the extra …
