Liked "Paper Prototyping"

As interfaces become ever more complex and development schedules seem to get shorter and shorter, you may find it useful to give up your user-interface modeling software for awhile in favor of something simpler. All you need is paper, pens, scissors, and your imagination.

Charles Mingus: "Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the complicated simple, awesomely simple, that's creativity."

If only more designers, and especially UI & UX ones, would follow that
principle.

Google + Java = Mobile + Widget + Web + Server - Sys Admin

Now with one language (Java) a mom 'n pop shop can develop:

  • a native mobile app (Android + Davlik)
  • a web app or widget (GAE Java + GWT)
  • a backend server (GAE Java and all the GAE goodies)

And no need for a sys admin or even a complex cloud deployment on EC2 or like!!
