Not dead yet.

I seem to always make one of these posts (often with the same title) at some point in my blogs’ lifespans (usually towards the end). However, this post shall not function as a Horseman of the Blogpocalypse for irrg! orrrg! Nay. Verily. Or something.
I’m currently dealing with the tail end of some excessive workload and [...]

irrg! orrrg! on twitter

As I am trying to extend my vast media empire to more a point where my regular subscribers can be counted on more than just my fingers and toes, I’m going to be shaking things up a little bit with a twitter feed for short news and some tweaks to the content.
For starters, check out [...]

Migration migraine

Moving from Chyrp to Wordpress is, well, not recommended unless you want to start from scratch.
After a tumultuous December month, and an aftermath that some might call January, I’m working hard to get my plates spinning again and to write some of the articles that I had to put on the back burner. Keep an eye on [...]

Top none for 2008

I have been too out of touch with the world in the past month. Drastic things are happening in The Workplace, and they have taken a bit of a toll on irrg! orrrrg. However, I’m expecting to do a bit of a spurt between next Monday and the Monday after to push out some cool [...]

I’m not dead, I’m just afraid of the economy.

I’ll be playing a little catch-up with this blog from now until the end of the year. Also, a bit of direction adjustment and a few longer posts that I’ve been drafting. Stay tuned.

Full speed ahead!

Well, that’s it. I’ve launched the full irrg! orrrrg! experience and have said goodbye to Tumblr. While I was overjoyed with Tumblr and will continue to use it for other projects, I felt that this project needed to live on it’s own.
What does this mean? This means that Meanwhile has come to an end. All [...]

Thou shalt not edit thy posts

But hey, no-one ever said anything about deleting them.
I deleted two recent posts today that didn’t felt like they fit in with the rest of this blog. Granted, the 10 readers I have probably couldn’t care less, but I felt that it was important that there was at least some evidence that yes, they were [...]

I catch fish! (…and I’m a PC)

A new colaboration between myself and Mr. Essl. Go submit your cleverness.

UI interpretation: Designer versus writer

Interesting observation that came in during testing of our soft launched auction preview…
As a code/visual person, I’d decided that ↓ meant ascending; A→Z to me sounded like it’d be a down arrow when used in a
select field. However, to the writer types in our organization, ↑ meand ascending, ↓ meant descending. The other designerly types [...]

Pseudo Bugs Bunny dialogue

Me: this has been such a weird process. I’m completely lost on hours, btw. Let’s just decide a flat fee.

Client: Alright. Give me a number.

Me: 1400? 1200?

Client: 1200

Client: :P

Me: 1300

Client: 1275

Me: 1250

Client: Done!

Me: Whoops!

Subject matter.

I guess I forgot to describe the subject matter of this here blog. Basically, whatever strikes my fancy, but as the blog progresses I’m hoping to start tying more of my topics together more as if I were an amateur Neal Stephenson. Topics will include but are not limited to: art, design, comics, programming, the [...]
