The 960 Grid System, by Nathan Smith, is an effort to streamline web development workflow by providing commonly used dimensions, based on a width of 960 pixels. There are two variants: 12 and 16 columns, which can be used separately or in tandem. The 12 column grid is divided into portions that are 60 pixels wide. The 16 column grid consists of 40 pixel increments. Each column has 10 pixels of margin on the left ...

We were in a diner over the summer. One of those reconstructed ersatz fifties places with lots of old newspapers stuck on the wall. Except it had clearly been around for at least 20 years. The fittings were worn in the right places, the door had the right not-jammed-any-more feeling. The edges of things were worn smoothed by the passages of many arses. It was fake, but it was still somehow authentic. It had patina. ...

How do we get more work done? It is a question that every manager and every passionate worker faces. Yet, for the most part, teams operate on gut instinct and habit. The results are less than optimal.Over the years I've been collecting small pieces of research on various factors that actually seem to improve productivity. I've assembled eight of these experiments into a PowerPoint presentation. Feel free to use the graphs and data within to ...

Is the future of design activity-centered? Quite some time back I argued that Information Architecture was the wrong frame in which to approach design. My post got a lot of push-back from the established IA crowd, who claimed that I was either wrong or claimed that my view was just rehashing existing debate. I probably deserved this push-back because I really had no idea what arena I was entering or what sacred cows I was ...

A little while back, I wrote a post titled Widgets, widgets, everywhere in which I suggested all consumer electronics should be thought of as platforms that could run applications created and shared by users. In particular, If I was a pro-am photographer on a month-long safari shoot, I could grab a custom camera interface from the Web, set up to provide easy-access presets to the light and movement conditions I’d face. I’d repurpose a couple ...

What I like about this is the growing understanding of how important collaborative grass root design actually is! Charles Leadbeater talked about that quite some time ago in his TED-talk "The rise of the amateur professional"

"Users are in a better position than designers to discover better products and experiences and, increasingly, better positioned to create them too. (Of course the best situation is that designers are users too.) Adaptive design is not just an approach but an opportunity."

En händelse som skolskjutningen i Finland får traditionella medier att jobba hårt. Framför allt handlar det idag om att både skapa bra innehåll för sina traditionella kanaler; printeditionerna eller de tablåbundna nyhetssändningarna men också att battla konkurrenterna för snabbaste nyheterna på sina webbeditioner. Inget nytt idag. Det som man kan notera är några saker: Även om många medier kört på YouTube-vinkeln (värre i exempelvis brittiska tidningar där såväl Telegraph som Daily Mail drar sina växlar ...

Design and innovation have become the hot topics and drivers of internal change within companies. Everyone is asking “How do I innovate?” and in return some designers have cheered “Methods!”. With methods on the forefront of everyone’s innovation list, many consultancies have begun to publish and sell their methods. Method tools come in many shapes and sizes, here are a few to check out: Cards: IDEO published their set of 51 method cards in 2003 ...

I don't know if everyone knows this, but apple sauce? It is SO easy to make. Don't bother to buy it. Ever. It'll take you fifteen minutes, and be infinitely better than the store-bought version. I don't know what took me so long, because I just tried this very recently. Then again, I don't really eat a lot of apple sauce. Or I didn't. These past few weeks, I've had it on oatmeal porridge every ...
