  • Really Awesome Displays

    It’s been a while since I’ve commented on the topic I study every day, HCI (Human-Computer Interaction, in case you’ve forgotten…it really has been a while). I sit here waiting for some CDs to burn and continuously think to myself that it won’t be long until I will never have to *wait* for my computer…

  • A Trip to Chi-Town

    I’m in Chicago visiting family. Good times. Last night I went out for all-you-can-eat sushi. It was so good. I really miss sushi when I’m in Bloomington. I guess it’s not really their fault, they are just a bit too far away from water. Chicago definitely treated me well as far as fresh, uncooked fish…

  • Amazon.com

    Anybody notice the layout change on Amazon.com? It’s subtle, but definitely different. Here’s how it looked on June 17 And here’s what you see today

  • The Beautiful Internet

    What do you think of my blog’s layout? I recently received a comment about it, but won’t say whether it is positive or negative. I must admit, for better or for worse, that the skeleton for this site is basically the default offered by MovableType. I’ve added some chotchkies here and there, but it’s mostly…

  • The Tipping Point

    I started rereading one of my favorite books this evening. It’s called The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference, by Malcolm Gladwell. It got me thinking in terms of changing the world again. The tipping point is the moment at which a relatively small phenomenon becomes huge. This “tip” can be…

  • Senior Citizens

    Did some usability studies today. Some would actually call it usamajility. Our user group for this project (and the next) is the senior citizen population. I have really liked working with older people. At first I was a bit apprehensive, but getting to know them feels kinda good. They all seem pretty happy for the…

  • Welcome to MovableType, HCI > CS

    So this is my first “real” entry utilizing the MovableType System. I guess it’s not much different from blogspot, thus far, except for the sense of accomplishment after installing it on my own system. Plus what my actual page looks like is completely editable by me, meaning I’m not held back by the juggernaut that…

  • It’s getting cold…

    It’s getting cold…those around me would probably say it’s not too bad for Indiana, but for me it’s just getting a bit too nippy for comfort. It’ll get into the mid 60s today…perhaps I’m whining, but it just seems a little unfair that the high will reach 83 today at home. That’s a striking 18…

  • Bloglines

    So, this whole blogging thing has been rather one-sided lately. You see, I read them all the time these days. I’ve been using this site called Bloglines, which takes all my blogs and puts them into a list, then lets me know when new posts are added to each. Cool, huh? I no longer need…

  • I stand here in a towel

    I stand here in a towel, brooding with things to say. There is so much on my mind, but at the same time, so little. I do my best thinking in the shower. The shower is probably a place of intense thought for many people. It’s not often you’re allowed to be alone, naked, relaxed,…
