Incomplete thoughts: Banksy, Branding, Bravery
“The thing I hate the most about advertising is that it attracts all the bright, creative and ambitious young people, leaving us mainly with the slow and self-obsessed to become our artists. Modern art is a disaster area. Never in the field of human history has so much been used by so many to say so little.” - Banksy

Please stop doing this…

So as enthusiastic as I was to do the whole doodle-a-day type thing here on my blog, it didn’t last long. Same reason diets don’t work. Same reason New Year’s Resolutions are crap. I came up with better things to do.

Notes on the Pages upgrade for Facebook
• Consistency. Pages now look the same as user profiles. The more natural of an experience we can generate for our end users, the more comfortable they’ll feel while browsing. We want them to focus on happy thoughts and how much they love the product, not spend time being confused by the UI.
• Admin view. Admin view lets page administrators see content posted in sequential order, filtered by...
