There are 2 interesting examples here of video from the Nikon 300s and Canon 7D specifically under artificial lighting conditions at night and the wave type issues that appear on the Nikon but not on the Canon 7D. You can see this near the end when the person is filming a shop with the Nikon […]
T-Mobile users of the sidekick device have been warned to not let their devices drain completely after a server from the Danger company (owned by Microsoft) had a catastrophic failure, specifically the server managing this service. Seems weird when you read up on cloud computing that one server would hold all the data and not […]

I had a problem the other day trying to get a Windows 7 operating system, that is in English to work with a French keyboard. Of course, I hadn't set it up myself, but was asked to change the system after the fact. It initially had an English QWERTY keyboard and then my friend started […]
Just came across a great post over on the Made by Many blog that provides an insightful history of wireframes and how designing webpages has evolved over the years to see the convergence of information/experience architect and designer 'savoir-faire' and far better wireframes in the process 😉 Yes the article is called the future of […]
I just came across a post on Jeff Atwoods 'Coding horror' site (can't even remember how I ended up there), and a post about blogging, more specifically the reactions you can get from irate people. I'm not sure his recommendation to ignore people is 'the' solution but it's an interesting point of view and account […]
Carrying across the types of situations that occur between clients and vendors (in the B2B world) to real world, everyday situations, now that could lead to some funny situations, couldn't it!
