Twitter’s Missing Features
I’ve been sketching some random thoughts and plans for a new Twitter client, and rather than restrict it to my notebooks and condemn it to the fate of so many other ideas of mine that never see realization, I’m putting my wish-list for what a decent Twitter client should allow me to do here. Feel free to roll these into another client and let me know so that I can just use it, rather than have to build it 🙂
Rooms
Pretty awesome and full-featured looking IRC client for iPhone.
HumanSciences.com.au Live
I didn’t post earlier, but the changes which I made (along with a designer) to the HumanSciences.com.au website are now live. I worked mostly on some technical modifications to the discussion forums and the mailing list, while the designer involved changed the look and feel and structure of the site.
Client Education Library for Information Architects (CELIA)
Aim:
Provide a collection of resources which will help Information Architects to educate potential and existing clients about the importance and relevance of Information Architecture and strategy.
Contents of Collection:
- Diagrams
- Quotes
- Statistics
- Case Studies/Examples
- Online Resources
A search facility would be available, allowing you to hunt down certain things, as well as all widgets being categorised carefully and fully browsable. I’d like to be able to give everything a “permanent URL” within the collection as well, so that people can link back to it’s entry, and “reference” their resources properly, thus keeping authors happy(er) about the fact that their work is being used by other people in a relatively generic format.
No DOLA
That’s annoying — last week I got a call from DOLA, asking if I would be able to come in early next week (this week) to talk to them about doing some IA work for them.
I had to turn them down, because I am now working at AdultShop.com, which is taking up nearly all of my time, and I simply wouldn’t have had time to dedicate to the job. I asked them what they were doing anyway, and apparently they wanted me to work on the information architecture of their entire suite of websites and online applications – bugger!
