I can't find who initially recommended this but thank you anyway. It's 80 minutes but it was worth the time if only to see that there are some sympathetic ears among the 1% if pushed hard enough. Warren Buffet has gone down in my estimation and James Johnson (the father) has gone up. :)

i never was much of a google reader type guy, mostly because it looked like crap.
i'd go for feedly and such.

now the re-design has got me all pumped about it.
gotta find some people to follow. you maybe?

Google Fonts/Firefox 7.01 Bug

just updated my firefox and now all my websites are in arial!
the forums have narrowed it down to a problem on google's end, but have said it was fixed as of last night. uh, i don't think so.

how am i supposed to show clients that their new modern and "futuristic" websites are rendered in arial? i guess it's time for a typekit account. damn it.

site is now live for my first client of mavers web design. if you like the design give it a +1 or a like on the footer of the page, because we could both use the help. thanks.

to myself, google's never had a great focus on design.
that's another reason i love g+ so much. it's a step up.

now i see you can have your gmail look like google+.
it's the "preview" theme.

now this is what i'd like to see more of on the interwebs in the future.
free education & free proof of that free education.

it's not a new internet idea and i'm just waiting for one of these companies to grab hold of the culture with their interpretation of it.

i love me some goofing around, but a good habit would be to learn a little, at your own convenience, in between all of your social networking. three cheers for mozilla.

the new linkedin app is a game changer in that it's:

a. very well organized
b. fun to use
c. dare i say it, one of the best designed apps i ever seen.

linkedin may just start to be useful!
it's like i always say, "it's not what it does more than how it's presented."

Want to use your web browser to interact with the Google+ "nearby" stream? The function is only available on the mobile app, and if you go to m.google.com/plus it will redirect you to the full browser version.

But here's a cheat: https://m.google.com/app/plus/ and you'll be able to see the "nearby" stream.
