check it.I just installed WPhone, which is a plugin for wordpress that reformats the admin panel of your wordpress blog. It makes excellent use of the built in iPhone UI features and screen size. I’m really excited to see new ways companies are adapting their existing web apps to run on the iPhone.
So far, my favorites are fandango, facebook, twitter, and Tada List by 37 signals.

Over the past few months I’ve been slowly shooting dramatically lit portraits of friends for a small book I’m hoping to put out in the fall. If you are interested in being part of this little project please get in touch or add a comment if you are interested. Ideally you are in and or around Boston, Ma, but if not, I’m always up for a drive.

Today my mustache is 20 days old. Time flys - soon it will be 21 and will be out partying like the rest of em. Pour one out for the youth…Also, tonight, Jeff Allen shot some photos of Anna and I for a his senior project at AIB. He’s documenting couples, shooting them in their environment. I can’t wait to see how they turn out. I also shot a few pics of Jeff and Anna for my ongoing friends portrait series. Have a look at those shots starting here on the flik-flick.

I’ve been growing my mustache since the beginning of March. Today marks its 20th day thriving on the lush habitat known as my upper lip. If I say so myself, it really brings a new meaning to the term “upper crust.”
Just sayin’.

Yes Studio, from the UK, have a really great book of work up. Their style embodies everything I have come to know UK Design for. The site is super minimal and simply lets the work speak for itself.

I’ve been spending a increasing amount time developing in Flash and as a consequence, staring at loads of ActionScript 3.0. The language received a complete overhaul early last year leaving many developers/designers who had decent skills with ActionScript 2.0 trembling in the corner. The first time I opened an AS3 driven site I wanted to puke - it was like staring at the bastard child of JAVA/AS2/JS and I had no idea what was what. However, after some daily workouts with teammikey I’ve nearly ported all of what I could do in AS2 over to AS3.
I just came across this code reference page, complete with source files and documentation, on the Adobe site and really wish I had seen it sooner. The tutorials are awesome and ALL of the code is clearly commented out every step of the way.

The first time I saw Stefan Sagmeisters book, Made You Look, I was so impressed with how clever the packaging concept was. It was simple - strong - bold - AND carried a solid visual message. His latest book, Things I have Learned in my Life So Far is a great follow up - a refreshing body of work packaged in an equally refreshing way.
It looks like there is also a companion site to the book that builds on the book’s theme with additional artists and individuals involved.
