Drawbraille Mobile Phone (Design Concept)

Designer Shikun Sun has put together a stylish mobile phone design idea for the blind - via Yanko Design:

DrawBraille Mobile Phone is one of the most compelling concepts that focus on making mobile phones easy-to-use for the blind. The entire UI and input keys are in Braille and even the touch panel reflects this system. The design and approach have a surreal finish to it and I am quite sure that Shikun Sun is on to something big with this!

More information, including photos and a video, can be found at Yanko Design here

Everyone needs to giggle more.

Good Catch

Almost sent this gem on to a developer, who happens to be a friend.

<div id="controls">
   <div id="slider">
     <!--
       INSERT YOUR SLIDER HERE
     -->
   </div><!-- end #slider -->   
   <a class="notes" href="#">Notes</a>
 </div><!-- end #controls -->

On second thought, I think I’ll go ahead and send it along. Hahaha

How does one ‘over work’ a joke?

In this fandom, that’s not possible.

I could giggle at this for hours.

Fresh Impressions on Brandmarks (from my 5-year-old)

It’s pretty interesting how many of these logos have already been imprinted on her tiny little mind. What a great experiment to have gain first impressions.

.SWF Z-Index tip of the day

If your .swf is playing/sitting/hanging out on top of all your DHTML elements, (when truthfully, it should be under), try the following fix:

change the WMODE parameter to “opaque” or “transparent”. This will prevent the .swf from sitting on top, and now you can “adjust the layering of the movie within the other layers of the HTML document”.

In between your < script> tags:

var flashvars = { };
var params = {
    menu: "false",
    scale: "noScale",
    allowFullscreen: "true",
    allowScriptAccess: "always",
    bgcolor: "",
    wmode: "opaque"
};
var attributes = {
    id:"PG"
};
swfobject.embedSWF(
    "filename.swf",
    "altContent", "1024px", "650px", "10.0.0",
    "expressInstall.swf",
    flashvars, params, attributes);

WAIT.

STOP

EVERYTHING.

This is the only video I’ve seen that makes me incredibly homesick.

Dance Video of the Day: Nathan Barnatt lends his signature dance stylings to the Freaks remix of Yelle’s “Comme Un Enfant” off Album Safari Disco Club.

TJ Miller and Martin Starr and Yelle herself make an appearance.

[thanks andrew!]

thestorminateacup asked: You were raised vegan? That's awesome!

I was! Thanks mom! *grin*

Now I eat animal, but sometimes I usually slip into periods of no animal, some animal, and then all the animals. I prefer fish and gamey ones, like duck or rabbit, compared to mass farm bred animals like cows and chickens. 

I’m not sure if that’s a product of learning to taste animals and their textures at an older age, or if I’m just weird that way. Haha.

5 Awesome Things About Today

1. I scored a 4 foot model boat on Etsy. (I’m still going to find a model kit that I can build for myself.)
2. Lunch at Broder with the fantastic Pam Statz. I scarfed too much coffee and apple fritters. And my eggs came in a square shape.
3. I found a new movie shop across the street from Broder. They have a fantastic international section.
4. Watched two episodes of Dr. Who with J.
5. Built a massive fire with J.
