Inkscape UI widgets continued

Category: UI, Web DesignJared @ 3:40 pm

So I spent a bit of time developing some inkscape widgets for ui design. They are not perfect but were easy to create which might explain why nobody else has done it yet. However they are not quite what I want. If you use them you will see that they don’t resize like they should. This is mostly a problem with the border. I will keep playing around with these and hopefully get more added to the collection.

Looking for some UI widgets to use in inkscape for mockups

Category: Web DesignJared @ 12:40 pm

I am posting this in hopes that somebody out there could help me find some UI widgets elements to do some quick interface mock ups inside of inkscape. What I am looking for are some check boxes radio buttons and other common elements that show up on websites.

If I can’t figure out Facebook does that make me Anti-Social?

I have tried on multiple occasions to use face book.  Yet despite all the hype out there about facebook I just don’t get it. Perhaps it does ultimately come back to the fact that I am “anti-social”. Now don’t get me wrong its been great to reconnect with some people from high school. But the truth of the matter is that I couldn’t wait to get out of high school and those that I wanted to stay in contact with I have. Facebook just seems to me like a place where we can go back to and relive the glory days of High School/College. I feel that the future of social networking  is ultimately the blog.  Facebook reminds me to much of AOL it was cool and fun when it first came out. Then I discovered the open web and that was a lot better and much more flexible.

The way we learn

Category: LIfe the Universe and Everything else, educationJared @ 10:22 am

I seem to be just posting videos now… I think commentary on this can go different ways. Education is changing it has to change. I think I will watch this a couple more times and post some thoughts later this month.
