Creating a page that wants to be read, the human element

2007-07-19T18:27:43Z

I just now had a bit of a what I call a "user moment". It's one of those times where my refined, logical understanding of technology and design breaks down and I see things the way an ordinary, "unskilled", user would. It can be a bit unsettling. ...

Robert Scoble, Philip Seymour Hoffman - Brothers?

2007-06-11T20:17:59Z

I was watching CrankyGeeks 67 and I had the personal revelation that Robert Scoble looks exactly like Philip Seymour Hoffman. Update: Of course I wasn't the first person to notice this but this was the first time I had thought of it.

I still don't get test driven design

2007-06-05T15:59:00Z

I have listened to .NET Podcasts on the topic, I've read the Wikipedia article, I've subscribed to testing blogs. I've even written actual NUnit testing code while following a tutorial. But still, I have no idea how to do Test Driven Design. Ther...
