I make this stuff up as I go.

Try to keep up people, I move fast.

I'm Kelly Sims. I'm a freelance web and print designer in Manhattan Beach, CA. This is where I gather things I find interesting, funny, or just plain weird.

Nicely done jQuery slider script.

Simply stunning piece of visual artwork. That it is all CG is even more stunning. Must watch in fullscreen.

Managing CSS and JS In ExpressionEngine 

Good post from Adam Spooner on managing your css and javascript through ExpressionEngine templates. Some of these ideas are new to me, maybe to you too.

Two Gentlemen of Lebowski

WALTER: Indeed, a rug of value; an estimable rug, an honour’d rug; O unhappy rug, that should live to cover such days! 

DONALD: Of what dost thou speak, that tied the room together, Knave? Take pains, for I would well hear of that which tied the room together. 

WALTER: Didst thou attend the Knave’s tragic history, Sir Donald?

DONALD: Nay, good Sir Walter, I was a-bowling.

WALTER: Thou attend’st not; and so thou hast no frame of reference. Thou art as a child, wandering and strutting amidst the groundlings as a play is in session, heeding not the poor players, their exits and their entrances, and, wanting to know the subject of the story, asking which is the lover and which the tyrant.

Newsie - Google Reader for iPhone and iPod touch 

Another app in my quest for the perfect iPhone Google Reader interface.

Fixing GDZL.LA posting to Flickr via Tweetie 2

Huh? It broke. Dammit. Don’t change passwords I guess.

I changed my Twitter password and lost the ability to post to my Flickr account through Tweetie 2 on my iPhone. Fixing it proved to be troublesome, so here’s how I did it since the team behind GDZL.LA seem to not care about documentation.

This will only work if you still have your old password for Twitter. I use 1Password, and it keeps track of current and old passwords.

  1. Go to http://gdzl.la and login with your old Twitter password.
  2. Go to http://gdzl.la/account and change the password to the new Twitter password
  3. Now get to sharing more inane photos with your tweeps.

Word to the team behind GDZL.LA, how about a link to the accounts page? A quick FAQ maybe? Love the way it works, but fixing it was a PITA.

Posting to my Tumblr using Tweetie 2 on the iPhone. Why? Because I can, silly.

The language of staffing 

If your company is so big and impersonal that you call the people you have assets, resources, bodies, or any of the many other degrading terms available, you’re doing it wrong.

Love this. (via eugevon)
