I’ll be going along to the DDD event at TVP tomorrow for the first time, quite interested to see what it’s like. Thinking about going to the following sessions…

Giving birth to a ten tonne baby
Glad you’ve found your way over here. After much deliberation over names (and .com addresses), I’ve given birth to a shiny new brand, site and domain name. I’ve moved over all the content from EmbeddedStream (may she rest in peace) and might even bother with 301 redirects.
Anyway, hope you like the whole B-movie thing. You have to understand he’s just curious, not inherently evil.
I’ll still be tweaking things for a while, but all the basics should be working – let me know if there any any obvious accidents.
In case you’re wondering, for a week or so I was singing in my head (if a ten tonne baby… kills the both of us… to die by your side… well, the pleasure – the privilege is mine). Not that I even listen The Smiths, but it explains a little.

Concepts around reading magazines on handheld digital devices
I still have my doubts about whether even the most advanced digital reader can compare to the simple pleasure of flicking through a physical mag, but this conceptual video gives some really great ideas about what the experience might look like.
I like the consideration for some of the less obvious ways that we use physical magazines and how these might be replicated – like leaving something lying around on a coffee table to make some kind of statement about your taste and attitudes.
Thanks to Dave for sending me the link.

Blimey… just noticed the bottom of the Vimeo site
I’ve visited the Vimeo site on various occassions, but never actually scrolled to the bottom of the homepage. They have an incredible illustration hidden away at the bottom. Due to the location they can make much more of it without detracting from the content. Go and take a look, I love it.
Also check out how they are animating the position of the balloons and clouds using javascript to respond to scroll behaviour. Very nice, subtle touch.
