Posted to Are there any alternatives to Pttrns?, in reply to Bertrand Bruandet , Apr 20, 2020 Posted to Dribbble redesigns its shot view?, Aug 23, 2018 If you're wondering why Pinterest share is so prominent – currently about 46% of dribbble's social traffic comes from there, compared to just 20% from Facebook, 11% from YouTube and 8% from Twitter
Posted to Case Study Club 2.0 — Learn How People Design Digital Products, Feb 21, 2017 Dude, love the site! Congrats on the redesign + launch!
Posted to Book/Blog recommendations for selling design and development, Nov 08, 2016 Some authors that I'd personally recommend: Seanwes, Nathan Barry, Brennan Dunn, Paul Jarvis.
Lots of free and paid resources on their sites to dive into!
Posted to What tool do people use to track their time?, Nov 08, 2016 I'm a big fan of Timely App
Simple calendar view, with coloured blocks for each client/project. They also released an update a couple months back that lets you integrate with apps like RescueTime to auto track chunks of time, super useful!
Posted to Ask DN: what is your blog set up with?, in reply to Priyanka Sharma , Nov 08, 2016 Seconded! Would set up my blog as a Medium publication, which has gotten a lot more powerful over the past year. Custom domains, navigation tabs, etc. As an example, check out TheRinger.com
Again, not for everyone, but the advantage of plugging your content into a thriving network, while still maintaining your own site outweighs any cons for me.
Posted to Nyan Cat for your new Macbook's touchbar, in reply to Joe Hsu , Nov 08, 2016 ooh yeah, definitely!
Posted to InVision’s free course to switch to Sketch App, in reply to Rami James , Nov 04, 2016 I'm using a 2013 Macbook Retina Pro and I would buy the same laptop again if I needed a new one. Same hardware specs, and of course, all the ports I need!
I imagine Figma might be an interesting option if you're looking to switch to Windows, since it's web based.
Posted to Site Design: Mailchimp ~new graphics~, Oct 28, 2016 Find it interesting that the home page doesn't even mention that they're a tool for sending newsletters. Guess it's because they're just that confident in the brand!
Posted to Spotify A/B testing new playbar?, in reply to Matt Castillo , Oct 26, 2016 Interesting, I have a different set of icons on mine:
