This is my blog. I also have a website thing.
Developer & Designer
Posted on July 8, 2012
Just started chaining my bio on social networks to this:
Developer & Designer at Nothing Magical. Currently working on http://cheddarapp.com
I never really considered myself a designer, but I spend a ton of time designing things now. A few people asked me how I learned: trial & error.
As far as design goes, I have no idea what I'm doing. I just try a bunch of stuff until I don't hate it. Some things come more naturally than others. I spent almost no time on Cheddar for iOS design-wise. The pieces just fell into place. Things like the Cheddar homepage took forever.
The one thing I have learned about trying to be a designer is the process is everything. The whole experience of trying things and realizing what does and doesn't work is designing. It took me awhile to appreciate this part of it.
Go make stuff.
Yammer Sells for $1.2 Billon

Microsoft just bought Yammer for $1.2 billion. That's insane.
I think we’ll start seeing more acquisitions like this throughout the rest of the year. It's Google’s turn.
