This is really cool

This is really cool; I have wanted something like this for HTML/CSS/JS for a while, but doing it with full code evaluation is awesome, too. And Light Table is on Kickstarter (cause your no one if you're not right now).

 

Another interesting bit of branding

Can Google pull this off?

StartupBus 2012: BumperCrop takes Runner Up!

I got to attend StartupBus for the first time this year and had a blast. Not only did my team (who founded BumperCrop) take home Runner Up against over 50 teams from the United States and Mexico, I made connections with people that I hope will be good friends for the rest of my life. I strongly recommend this experience to designers, developers, and business people of all stripes. Go to StartupBus to learn more and sign up.

 

SOPA Protests

Google's Homepage in protest of SOPA on 1/18/2012Today a portion of the web did something that I don't think we've seen before; website "black outs" and other activities to raise awareness for a legal issue. No matter your thoughts on SOPA I find it fascinating to see activism on this scale on-line; this isn't just a few fringe sites saying "legalize it" or "bring our troops home" this is major, major players in our web-economy taking a stand on a political issue. Given that most of these sites will be back to normal tomorrow, I'm going to try to capture screen shots of at least a few of the participating websites.
