Random Inspiration #4: Cogs and Embers Feed my Ego

Some of the links that are still in my “make sure you check them out” list since last week:

  • Everyone’s favourite Happy Cog has started the redesign of Mozilla.org – and they’re kind enough to keep us informed during the procedure. Just the kind of stuff I like reading on web.
  • Cufón is really gaining traction these days as a viable Flash-free alternative to sIFR – will make sure to check this out on future projects.
  • Ego iPhone app by Garrett Murray spoils me – my Mint, Feedburner and Twitter stuff all in one? Ego bliss. Ironically, those are the stats I most often check out.
  • This post from ever-inspiring Cocoia blog is not only creative – it friggin’ kicks creativity ass. So nice. So nice.
  • I love this metaphor – Ember, an iPhone client for 37Signals’ Campfire, coming from overcommitted apps. Really like the name metaphor. I don’t use Campfire though, so I can’t really tell how convenient such an iPhone app would be.

This concludes another busy Monday, my dear friends. Let’s hope Tuesday holds even more interesting stuff for us. Have a great week!

    Nice list. Thanx! About the Cufon thing, i’ve found 2 major problems:

    1. No text selection
    2. No a:hover state.

    Other than that it’s much easier than sIFR

    @Gerasimos

    As I said, it’s getting a lot of traction, maybe we get a more stable feature set and work-arounds in the future.

    sIFR intentions are noble, but jeez, it’s so much work, and it never works at the first try, always something goes wrong.
