Brian Breslin on social media strategy
I’ve been playing around with bebo a lot the last few days. (You can add me here, if you actually know me.) More specifically I’ve been playing with their developer platform, which as you may or may not know is a clone of Facebook’s.
So aside from having an impressively low number of friends on the [...]
So I’ve been playing around with grid based layouts a LOT lately. After seeing the blueprint css framework, I decided this was the perfect time to try designing with grids. For those of you who know me, I have been completely self taught as far as web design and interface design is concerned. [...]
After getting stuck in vegas because of the delays associated with these storms, I realized that USair could have alleviated this problem by just creating a mobile version of their flight status page.
I could have logged on with my blackberry and been less frustrated. Now I get home, and see the following screen on usair.com. [...]
So a distant relative of mine, Jorge Arango, in Panama (the country, not the party town in Florida) just posted info about their first usability/IA workshop in the area. UXCamp Panama was probably the first of its kind in all of central america, just don’t quote me on that.

My good bud Pete Cashmore just relaunched his site Mashable.com. Bryan Veloso of Avalonstar did the redesign. Overall its a bangup job they pulled off in a mere 2 days! Pete’s also got a new subsite MashCodes up too, it has all you need for myspace layouts and the such.

The new site sports ajax (or javascript for you purists), clean design, and most importantly it lacks the stodgy 1995-esque design it had been sporting since probably 1995. I have a feeling that this will probably increase their checkouts/conversions by [...]
Its been a while since my last post here, and for that I apologize. Been working on various design projects, and my own webapps i mentioned earlier. With that aside, one of the issues I’ve been pondering lately has been that of the search engine start page/main page. There are various degrees of this, [...]
So as some of you may know, or not know, I recently became a part owner of a little startup based in texas, Seekum.com. I’m only a minority stakeholder/shareholder, but I am the new creative director for said startup. With that in mind, I am going to create a tangential series here on the [...]
As some of you may know, my company, infinimedia, has been working on a number of small business apps in addition to our regular client work. All of the projects share one problem, designing within constraints. You might be asking, what do you mean within constraints? this is web2.0, there are no constraints. [...]
