SXSW Panel Picker
I want to spread the good word of Web typography again to the fine folks attending South By South West (SxSW) at the 2011 event, but I need your help. The first round of selection is (literarily) a popularity contest based on a thumbs up or down...
Read More LIVE(ish) – Fluid Web Typography at SXSWi 2010
I was poking around the SXSW site, and realized that the recording of my session on Web typography is finally available. I had to pick through the code a bit, but finally found the file I needed to embed. For reference, I'm also embedding the slide share version of the...
Read More How I changed my mind about iPhone Dev
From time to time, I have been called on to design iPhone apps, both native and Web apps. If you don't know the difference, it's simple: native apps are written in a computer code called Objective C (hard) while Web apps are created using the core Web technologies of CSS,...
Read More DEVO Focus Group Testing the Future at SXSW
I was privileged to participated in the DEVO Live focus group at SXSW this year, where I learned a lot about the rigorous of user research testing. If you look closly, I'm at the edge of the frame when the camera pans all the way to the left, wearing my...
Read More Shame on You Apple: A Musical Odyssey
Most of my friends think of me as an unabashed Apple fanboy who drools over Steve Jobs' every word. Truth-to-tell—although I’m a great fan of Apple’s products and design philosophy—many of their policies leave me chilled or outraged.
I was reminded of this recently while I stood watching the band Stricken...

Read More Meeting Bruce
I was watching Andrew Keen speak at SXSW Sunday. He’s the author of The Cult of the Amateur—a book that could be subtitled “everything Jason does is evil and destroying the fabric of American culture,” so I was not exactly an unbiased audience member. It was a surprisingly small room...
Read More Jason Reads from SiS at SXSW 09
[caption id="attachment_80" align="alignright" width="240" caption="At my SXSW Book Signing. I don't usually look this menacing."][/caption]
At SXSW last week, I read Chapter 3, "The Myths of CSS", from my forthcoming book Speaking In Styles, and then did a book signing for CSS, DHTML, & Ajax at the Barnes & Noble booth....
Read More Interview with New Riders at SXSW 09
I had a great time at SXSW 2009. Met a lot of great people, heard a lot of great ideas, and ate a lot of great food. While I was there, I did a quick interview with Gary-Paul of New Riders about my upcoming book, Speaking In Styles, although it...
Read More WATCHMEN: Now With Motion!
[caption id="attachment_364" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Watchmen on the iPhone"][/caption]
So, it looks as if the legal bru-ha-ha between Fox and Warner Brothers is finally over, and the long awaited Watchmen movie will make it to the big screen on time (March 6th) with Fox much the richer for it. But this is not the...
