It’s true that there’s a lot of Flash content out there. But Flash – see Adobe’s reaction to the lack of Flash support on iPad here – is in no way part of the true language of the Internet. It’s Scottish-accented English. Sometimes it makes the language more colorful and entertaining, and sometimes it just renders it into unintelligible mush.-
Thank you, Andy.

There’s an inherent benefit to only doing one thing at a time: the load of worrying about other tasks is lifted. Knowing that there isn’t anything else competing for your attention is quite liberating.
Of course, the iPad is an extension of this. -
Crafting Subtle & Realistic User Interfaces →
Mike Rundle’s (old) article on creating subtle and realistic interfaces made its way into my feed reader, thanks Neven, and I enjoyed it. A good read for anyone who considers themselves an interface designer.

I just ordered one of these bad boys.
- Ollie is an adorable little bluebird that loves to chat about what’s going on.
- The body has a flocked finish for a soft velvet feel.
- Approximately 4 inches tall (10 centimeters)
- Rotocast in high quality vinyl for a soft yet sturdy feel.

Launch and birthday →
Today, January 2nd, is my birthday and I am turning 18. This is a big deal here in Sweden as I am now allowed to:
- Buy alcohol. Not at all that important.
- Get my driver’s license. I have been driving for ~1,5 year but I don’t have a license.
- Get a real bank account. Visa, baby!
The bank account is the most important benefit as it will ease the managing of my money and the money transfers between me and potential clients.
I am also launching my new site today with a weblog and a few more sections. Some day there will probably be a portfolio somewhere.

I may be enjoying my cider too much.
Also, note the X-mas title on the bottle.

Happy new year!
Happy new year and decade!
What I did when we entered 2010:
- Watched Scrubs.
- Drank Coffee.
- Ate strawberry-vanilla ice cream.
Once again, happy new year and enjoy 2010.

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas everybody.
I know I am a bit late but I have been busy spending time with my family and something secret, which I would like to talk about, but I can’t.
I hope you are getting ready for new years eve and my birthday in the coming week.
Take care.

Enough
Not everything, all the time, completely, forever. Just enough. Enough to start, finish, or simply maintain.
Merlin Mann over at 43 Folders talks about having just enough. He, and I, believe that most people takes things too far when it comes to checking your email, Twitter et cetera; Merlin also uses a buffet as an example for this, because we usually eat until we drop “dead” from having eaten too much food at these buffets and because we don’t know when to stop.
Trying to read hundreds blogs and following an equal amount of people on Twitter will only make it harder for you to understand (or at least getting the information in to your head) it all; follow blogs and people on Twitter who provide you with what you want, not with what you may want in the future.
