Photoshop Touch CheatSheet
I have been working with several Adobe Touch Apps since they have been released. Although Proto is one I am using frequently for web design work, I also find I am using Photoshop Touch frequently as well. Since I put together a Proto cheatsheet (which has been well received), I […]

Read MoreAdobe Proto Navigation and Wireframe
Now that I have created a “cheatsheet” for common Proto gestures and discussed creation of a form with Proto, I thought it time to turn my attention to the process of creating a prototype website (with working navigation). I am creating a wireframe for a site I created with Adobe […]
Read MoreForm Design with Adobe Proto
Now that the semester is winding down, I wanted to spend some time experimenting with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Adobe Proto. To me this is a key tool to rapidly create wireframes. It is also something which I think needs to be incorporated into our web curricula. Therefore, […]

Read MoreHow to email your professor
Having just gone through several episodes of email miscommunication, I thought it might be appropriate to put some notes together regarding the best approach to sending email to your professor (that would be me). It is important to recognize that I receive well over 100 email messages per day and […]

Assuming you have decided to take initial steps into the Twitter ecosystem, I thought it might be appropriate to cover additional tools and websites which can help manage the information “overload.” Yes, 140 characters doesn’t seem like much, but there can be a fair amount of information when you start […]
