Once you go wireless, it’s hard to go back. From home to my commute to the office, I try to keep my things and my workflow as wireless as possible. Here’s my own personal wireless list: from computer setup to apps to photo management to headphones and speakers.
I’ve been using a Xiaomi Redmi Note (4G/LTE) for almost a month and I can say that for the value of the phone, it’s been doing really great for me. Admittedly, the cheap price point comes with limitations (camera quality and storage size) but I’ve been able to work around them with some apps and […]
Went to a talk last evening, where Elsa Plumley from Foolproof shared their framework on experience design. As a framework, it’s more of a general guideline. I’ve experienced some of the things that were missing in our current workflows and this is something we could definitely try out to improve our process from ideation to app […]

But the workshop made me realize how outdated my course a few years back was because this time we didn’t just dive into type and colors and logos, trying to find […]
Because the top and bottom bars on iOS Safari slides up and down when scrolling, I was having some difficulty coding a full-screen page for it. $(window).height() on only gets the initial height upon page load, which includes the full header and footer bars. $(window).resize() wasn’t triggering when I scroll, either. I ended up finding […]
