In Japanese, it means beautiful. It all started when I bought a set of black plate, spoon and a bowl. And then after reading the book of Memoirs of a Geisha - that was the time I realized that I love Japanese art. The colorful design details of geisha clothes and that certain non-smiling calm and pretty geisha face. There something enigmatic about it. I adore the beautiful minimal interiors, japanese foliage, paintings, fine arts… except anime. I’m not a fan of that, old days and traditionaBalsamiq Mockups: a new AIR tool for fast UI prototyping
In this digital era, anything that can make us more productive is more than welcome. Last week I gave a try to the .air app “Balsamiq “ and though it’s a paid app, I thought I should post my review about it. Balsamiq is a mockup and prototyping tool. For those of you working with this type of applications, you know how hard it is to find a good working one or a good priced one. At first, the app doesn’t look as fancy as we all expect, compared to other .air apps we’ve experienced, but hFirefox 3

Influx recently wrote about the power humans have to process images and how this impacts web site design. It now appears Google is placing a value on fast. It is now adding load time as a factor in how it applies quality scores to keywords. The company explains the reasoning behind the move as follows..

i’m always on the look out for new things to appreciate ironically. this is ironywatch. have you read an archie comic recently? good! then surely you’ve noticed that all your favorite characters — archie, veronica, moose — have been stuck in a strange time-warp. their clothing and language mimic modern times, but their mannerisms, character conflicts and art style are stuck in the 40’s. yes, this dinosaur of a strip has aged hilariously over the years. nowhere is this more apparent than arcViviti

[19.06.2008 first posted on silicon republic] I’ve never seen such hype surrounding the release of a browser update. Is it due to the spirit of the open source community or because the browser has become more integral to our everyday lives? Or are people just getting tired of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer? Either way, I got swept up in the hype and waited patiently until 6pm rolled around on Tuesday evening because I’ve been using Firefox for years and telling anyone who will listen to switcRevenus et audience de la blogsphère francophone - état des lieux 2008
