All of us have had bad weeks and last week I had one of those myself. You ever find that everything you do seems to backfire on you? I just couldn’t get out of the cycle! Whether it had to do with work, family, friends, school or a personal project, we’ve all been there. That is life.

We are extremely uncomfortable when we are stressed out, receive bad news, or can’t quite figure out why, when, or how. It’s almost […]

Memberful Goes BETA: Easy Digital Downloads
I got a notice the other day about signing up for an email list that I had completely forgotten about – how many times do you do that?

Flight by Twitter: JavaScript Framework
Have you heard of Flight by Twitter? It’s a lightweight, component-based JavaScript framework that maps behavior to DOM nodes. Twitter uses it for their web applications.
