Drank some Birlou, listened to Da Babylonianz, didn't break any of my bones. Dope.

Firefox also provides similar documents on its Wiki, and Chromatic Pixel tells you everything about it.

Speaking of UI design, here's a nice article about crafting subtle and realistic ones. You'll find gems like this one in it, and how it is achieved...

Got similar links to share? Do so!

Hey, did you notice I didn't say anything about Flash and/or the iPad? Thank me.

The "ad" version

The "flashback triptych" version

Since it's a triptych it needs more space, so I set up a dedicated page... Go see it!

What now?

The actual greeting card will be posted in January!

Since it also records videos it will allow me to shoot a new Beat Battle soon (remember?), with better image quality... Cool, huh?

A little bit of JavaScript and some Photoshop/CSS trickery to present a growing collection of images designed for your favorite piece of technology!

The page also works on iPhone/iPod touch but looks a little different for better usability. Just tap+hold on the image to save it.

Expect the gallery to evolve, with new images and quotes!

I also set up a gallery, so if you've got nice scrollbars that aren't here yet, send' em right away!

Le principe : Donner naissance à un caractère typographique qui n’a rien demandé, complètement hors contexte et hors du temps. Fond transparent ou blanc de préférence. Postez-le sur votre blog avec comme titre “Lost Characters”.

Create a single character, out of context and out of time. Post it on your blog with “Lost Characters” as a title. The freak must be on a transparent or white background.

Update: play with the home-brewed Type Tester!

My 3 week trip with the trans-siberian and trans-mongolian is now over. I've seen many places, done many things and met a lot of people... But I'm not good at story-telling so I'll let these pictures talk for me.

Call me lazy.

That was cool.

Want to see more of it?

By the way

The hacking has now been fixed and everything should be exactly as it was. Also, I've updated Boks' javascript files (thanks to a comment and e-mails by Darrell Foster Kirsop), but you probably don't care anyway.

Montréal

The first city I visited during the trip. Looking pretty much like a big US city, except people speak french... My brother and I went to see Rancid live, where we ate our first "Poutine" ; funny stuff. We also saw Misteur Valaire and Omnikrom. MV was a good discovery, go grab their album!

Lots of nice tags around "Les Foufounes Electriques", also... And a fireworks battle!

Québec City

Lovely town, small streets, drunk people. It was both "La Fête de la Musique" and the national day when we were there, so empty beer cans were filling up the gutters! I went fishing for the first time in my life and got a trout, yep. We ate it and had some lobster, too... Yay!

Before leaving we stopped for breakfast at a weird place called "Restaurant Madrid" where you get to see monster trucks and dinosaurs on the parking lot. Sick!

Washington

The placed where the NECC happened, and where we had our own booth. Lots of people walking around, lots of huge booths with big goodies... We looked tiny!

Nice city for free museums, the current Feature Photography in Smithsonian's Portrait Gallery is awesome, go visit it! If you prefer dinosaurs or mammals, the Natural History Museum is good too! Of course I had to see the White House, the Capitol and Lincoln's Memorial...

New York City

The craziest city of all.

Went to see "Up" on Times Square's AMC, with 3D glasses and all: loved it. Bought a pair of Bose Supra at J&R. Went to Jonathan LeVine Gallery to see Invader's Top 10 exhibition and some of WK Interact's works. Headed to Brooklyn's Southpaw for Cage's album release concert, with Tone Tank, Yak Ballz and more... Had a breakfast with Lutz, Zoe and their 1-month-old baby in SoHo.

And more. One day I'll live there.

That's it!

Want more? Have some (untouched) pics on Picasa!

Those last 3 weeks have been awesome, I'll hopefully post details and pictures about the trip soon!

Introducing Boks, my latest and most ambitious AIR app to this day!

Do you design web pages? Do you write HTML and CSS? Ever heard about the Grid System and Blueprint CSS? Thought it was a pain to implement? Think again, fool!

Boks is some kind of WYSIWYG to help you setup a grid and baseline rhythm, build and fill your layout and export all this to HTML and CSS in no time.

Got your own CSS style already? No problemo, Boks can use them and eventually merge and compress them within a single "screen.css". Your styles use images? Simply point to your asset directory and it will be included too! Afraid of breaking the baseline rhythm with you randomly sized images? Just select the "Add JS to fix baselines" option and you're good to go!

Enough. Just go grab it (or just have a look at the lovely screenshots) and send feedback!

Apr 01, 2009: Update! I've done some wacky video screencasts that can help you understand everything about Boks, go and have a look! Yes, the sound is not perfect.
