If you don’t know about Meetup yet, get this. It’s a chance for you to meet with other like-minded individuals to talk about those things that really interest you, like photography, game design or whatever. In my case, it’s web design and we meet once a month.

That said, we are looking for speakers to come and talk to the group about various web-related topics. contact me If you’re interested in participating or know someone who might be.

popurls widget

Published at January 17, 2009 in Communication, Technology and Web Design. 0 Comments

popurls is a web 2.0 mashup that collects popular news stories from other websites and gathers the top stories in one place for you
I’ve been using this little mashup for the past year and it’s really nice to see them grow their features. They now let you create a widget that you can embed on your website which I just had to try!

How the widget works:

Visit popurls and click on any news story
If you like the story, share it
The story shows up automatically anywhere you placed the widget
Bonus: You can also have your stories show up on Facebook automatically.

a fresh color palette

Published at September 1, 2008 in Web Design. 0 Comments

I came up with this color palette while redesigning my other website, www.exposedelements.com. For this project, I decided to try to come up with a fresh and modern color palette.

The inspiration behind this palette comes from many years of admiration for the hex color #FCAA01. If you don’t know what the heck I’m talking about, please continue reading.

I’ve been a fan of the oranges and yellows for years, but if I had to choose just one, it would definitely be #FCAA01.
