I have no concerns publicly listing my Google Voice number 317-426-7246, which also spells 317-iCORBIN thanks to Googles ability to search for a number by WORDS. Each voicemail is transcribed and delivered [...]

For the last 12 years we have experienced the internet in basically the same static boring way, sure we came up with clever hacks to make HTML do things it didn’t – but by and large, the way we interact with the information is the same. Designers continually craved creating rich and engaging experiences, but were [...]

Dropbox – one place for all your eStuff.

I haven’t given Dropbox enough public love. Everyday I should be required to stand atop the tallest building in Indianapolis – screaming my undying gratitude for this amazing online service – that has never once failed me.
