Recent little things:

  • Tom Oreb's portrait of Ward Kimball. Mark Kennedy wrote up a great art analysis, but the all-text format was hard to follow. How about art analysis as a comic?
  • Planypus redesign. Yan Pritzker asked me for UI suggestions for Planypus, his social planner site. I thought it would be fun to give it a makeover.
  • Lyttle Lytton 2007. Third third place! My life is complete.
  • Alligator Eggs. Lambda calculus for eight-year-olds. A Phil Wadler special request.
  • Inline Spellcheck. Design of a spellchecker that shows all suggestions for all words, all at once.
  • Gestural Zoom and Pan. A zooming and panning UI that is continuous in time and space.
  • Albatross. Epic poem based on Coleridge's "Rime of the Ancient Mariner".
  • Scrolltabs. A new approach to tabbed web browsing.
