CNN Testing New Layout?

March 26, 2006 |

Looks like CNN switched to a new, wider layout for the front-page - it just doesn’t carry into the subsections yet, but I would have to say that the new design is quite an improvement over the old one. They now also feature their podcasts more promintently on the top right of their menu bar.

Perfect Mother, Perfect Wife - and then she killed…

Muisc Industry Up but Complaining

March 9, 2006 |

Copy and Paste Between Web Apps

March 8, 2006 |

Ray Ozzie on copy and pasting between web applications. If they can set a standard for doing this, I am all for it. Lots of web apps today can do amazing things, but it’s the little stuff like copy and paste that is holding users back right now.
