Target.com Redesign →
Wow, how’d I miss this news about this? I’m pretty sure someone made an argument like this at some point in the design process — and won: Look, everybody uses the search bar or those big fat categories strung across the top anyway.

The soldier’s quality of life is unfairly held hostage by the defense budget as a whole. A story I may have told before: When I was...

Turns out, we believe in freedom of speech so long as it doesn’t embarrass any career politicians. Up until now I’ve been torn on the whole “WikiLeaks” issue, but this morning I read a short, illuminating article on Wired.com that completely solidified my...
