The Web I Visit 10 Years Ago
Sep 02With the upcoming HTML 5, CSS 3.0 and the already so wide-spread Web 2.0 looking sites, I look back to those websites that I often visit 10 years ago. And just wonder how time and technology has gradually upped our design taste buds that the moment we look at these sites: a total turn-off!
Google
Yahoo
Hotmail
Altavista (one of my fave search engines, 10 years ago!)
Microsoft
Apple
Seems like after all, Apple has the edge all along 
Minimalist at heart!
Ah, thus the change of this wordpress theme as well, towards minimalism, not blind minimalism but a meaningful one!
Why I Ugh Facebook
Apr 19What's up with Facebook?
Taking up a great deal of young people's time in their lives when these lost time can be used for more useful and meaningful things.
Check this out:
People protesting on the streets of Paris against the new design of facebook.
What's up with young people nowadays? Don't they have anything better to do?
Yeah, I'm old already.
The Best Apple Ad Ever?
Feb 18You know when you surfed to apple.com, you'll see dynamic/changing ads on the first page everytime you refresh. Over the years, Apple has been designing top-notch advertisement. I think their philosophy is be different, don't look good, look GREAT, advertise with sleek design and further advertisement will be from mouth to mouth (like from this Apple fangirl). Oh, of course the I'm PC I'm Mac ads but I'm pretty sure that's just for fun, not so much for advertising.
Do people get showcased in their ads? They used to be. Now it's more of just product + tag line, or software + features. So, Apple fangirl in action presents you this. Click on it for the original large version. Now all of you can say, "YOU WISH!". Thank you very much.
Change is good
Nov 24Yes, I am changing theme again.
The purpose of this blog, is not really for blogging anyway, it's more like my experimental space, a feel good place for me so once I got bored with my old theme, I'll replace it with a new one. I have yet to really come up with a whole new theme on my own. I'm actually working on one, but since I've still got 2 more papers to go, I'll stall that until everything's over. I can't wait to work on it, and actually use it.
Now I seriously think I wanna attend a design course somewhere... I really wish to...
