June 16, 2009 - 12:54 pm - Welcome to the club! I've been using a Model M for years, can't type anywhere near as well with any other keyboard. It does require typing a little more softly at night when people are sleeping, though. :)
June 16, 2009 - 1:49 pm - That's so fun! I remember hearing that story on NPR, too. It is hard to find a comfortable keyboard. Mine isn't quite that clicky, but it is satisfying enough for me. Very fun.

A while back, AAA commissioned my Golden Gate Bridge in Fog picture for a large corporate conference with a ‘Building Bridges’ theme. Here are a few pictures of one of the finished products, an announcement card; front, back and the envelope. It may be a bit difficult to see in the picture, but the image...

The best camera is the one that’s with you. I always have my iPhone with me because it’s not practical to have a DSLR with you constantly. I enjoy the limitations of the iPhone camera in perpetuating a ’snapshot ethic’ much in the same way Polaroids did in the past.
This is an ever-changing (and updated...

- Hi Tristan,
What plugin did you for these photographs. And what setup did you use. I have been trying to get some of lightbox plugins to work on my blog. But I am running to problems where the thumbnails show, the photos will not pop-up. Thank you for your time.
June 14, 2009 - 12:03 pm - HI Mark, that's the NexGEN Gallery plugin for WordPress with Lightbox 2 added in as well.
I stumbled across this great sequence of pictures by someone on by the name of Jill Johnson on Flickr.
This really shows how even a short sequence of photographs can sure tell a compelling story! (click on the thumbnail to the right to view.)
The Business Card Observer website is a nice source of inspiration for business card design. [via Mike's blog @ Mike Industries].
I’m having fun paging through all the card images (be sure to click on the ‘Older Cards’ as well) and thinking about some of the design elements that work well, and ones that don’t.
I was at Disneyland last week and snapped this quick shot of The Court Des Anges there. This is a good place for engagement or wedding photos, or to just get some peace and quiet while at the park.
Located near the exit to Pirates of The Caribbean, I understand the relaxing courtyard and staircase is...
Leica announced a special limited edition White M8 camera today. What do you think of it? [1]
Footnotes:Personally, I think it looks very cool-modern yet classy and something a Stormtrooper from Star Wars might carry . And yes, I’m testing a newly installed footnotes plugin. [↩]
