“I needed a place where I could look at a list of sites that would inspire my creativity with CSS. I needed a site that linked to all the great CSS resources out there on the web. I couldn’t find a site that combined those two elements, so I created one myself. This site is useful for me as a designer and I hope that it is useful for you whether you are a designer, developer, programmer, manager, or just a CSS advocate. Instead of showing off great sites to everyone, let’s show off great sites that use CSS so we can inspire others to use the technology.”

“My excitement about treemaps was great and like many innovators I thought millions of users would be using this tool within a few years. Our minds were not focused on getting a patent, since I thought this was more of a concept that a product. Brian’s implementation of TreeViz was registered with the University’s Office of Technology Liaison which sought to distribute TreeViz.”

“Note that this is an essay about copyright myths. It assumes you know at least what copyright is — basically the legal exclusive right of the author of a creative work to control the copying of that work. If you didn’t know that, check out my own brief introduction to copyright for more information. Feel free to link to this document, no need to ask me. Really, NO need to ask.”

“One of the most difficult tasks for visual communicators is being able to select harmoniously matching color combinations. Though we all feel that we have an innate capability to select colors appropriately, we have sadly realized how untrue this is in reality and how incredibly difficult it is to make good color matches without having any design background or preparation.”
