Unexpected Narratives And Creating The Right Conditions

Web design encompasses many different skills and disciplines in the production and maintenance of websites. The different areas of web design include web graphic design; interface design; authoring, including standardised code and proprietary software; user experience design; and search engine optimization. Often many individuals will work in teams covering different aspects of the design process, although some designers will cover them all. The term web design is normally used to describe the design process relating to the frontend (client side) design of a website including writing mark up. Web design partially overlaps web engineering in the broader scope of web development. Web designers are expected to have an awareness of usability and if their role involves creating mark up then they are also expected to be up to date with web accessibility guidelines.

why I blog

I DO IT FOR MYSELF

There’s no huge growth goal to get a certain number of visits or comments By doing it for myself it gives me a lot of

freedom to explore the things I want to In turn I hope others enjoy the things I collect on DesignNotes But if no one

ends up visiting, that’s ok b/c I wrote what I did because I wanted to.

I DO IT TO REMEMBER

You’re more likely to remember something if you’ve written about it Now that I’m remembering all that stuff, I need to

figure out a way to apply that knowledge (Suggestions welcome)

I DO IT TO KEEP MY MIND ACTIVE

Just like when I take photos to help me see, the same can be said about writing for my blog If you’re actively thinking

about the world around you, it makes you better informed to make decisions.

I DO IT TO MEET LIKEMINDED PEOPLE

I can’t imagine where I would be if I hadn’t taken those first steps to post an idea I’ve been very lucky that there have

been readers of DesignNotes that have turned into friends and it’s been a great resource to bounce ideas off of.

I DO IT BECAUSE I CAN

The fact that it is so insanely easy to be a publisher that only eight or ten years ago would have been impossible The

overhead is extremely low… It’s important for me to explore all options for communication

Trang 7

Commenting on everyday design experiences Could be a response to an interaction, product or something

I’ve come across in a normal day.

LINK DROP

Sharing posts and sites that worth talking about on a weekly basis.

DESIGN WORK

“ I always said on my 30th birthday if I

hadn’t yet taken a big risk in life and

started a company or something

big, I had to quit my job on that day

and figure something out fast I guess I

got anxious because on my 26th birthday I walked into Cliff’s

office and retired from advertising I developed a business plan,

found an investor, and a year and a half later in December of

last year, we opened our doors.

are things we know that we know

There are known unknowns That

is to say, there are things that

we now know we don’t know

But there are also unknown

un-knowns These are things we do
