Yesterday we put up a temporary homepage at writeminds.com. It’s a tiny thing (just a few lines of code and a little bit of design), but it’s nevertheless exciting to point a domain to something that’s at least quasi-real.
We’re starting early with our search for Beta testers of WriteMinds, and I’d be thrilled if you used […]

If you missed out on my previous posts and tweets, a little recap: along with a few friends, I’ve been designing and building a new, web-based writing tool called WriteMinds. We’re hoping to have a beta up and running by the early part of March, and we just locked down the actual nuts […]

Over the past while, I’ve been working with some friends on an exciting problem:
How can we make writing on a computer easier and… awesome-er?

My roommate is officially, like, Wes Anderson and Roger Deakins rolled into one. Oh and he has a blog now: hellapixels.com/blog/. Check it out.
Top’o’the mid-morning to y’all. Early Friday AM, my buddies and I launched a site for our favorite bar in the West Loop, The Beer Bistro. The Beer Bistro is one of the mainstays of Madison Street (just on the other, more chill side of the expressway) and offers an incredible selection of beers, most of […]
How to Wireframe from Clay Parker Jones on Vimeo.
I kinda love wireframing* things. Mostly because I longed to be an architect while I was younger, and like George Costanza, never became one. This video quickly runs through my process for wireframing the new obamabaton.com site in Microsoft Visio. You’ll hear a LOT more about this project […]
