Vimeo: "A quick video that shows how the iPad is becoming a viable tool to bring on set - as we know, scripts, storyboards, shot lists and schedules are always changing until the very last second. Being able to download this new material while on location - and being able to reference them (and other videos/reference photographs) on set is a great to have at your fingertips. It sure beats having a stack of papers or folders of images - that are somehow never around at the critical moment that you need them."

"Tap, tap, tap"

From Dustin Curtis, this passes the awesome test hands down: "Mere mortals don’t think of things on their computers as “files.” People think about digital representations of things the same way they think about real physical things: they think about photos, videos, text documents, articles, and people. A “file” on a computer is just a universal container for one of those things."

BERG London show how they've mapped their Mag+ concept onto the first iPad edition of Popular Science. It looks great and the information flow works fantastically well. It looks slick but I'm not 100% convinced that it functions as well as it could. I'm sure a lot of refinements will happen over the coming months.

Brad Haynes: "The reading experience the iPad can provide is far beyond what we’ve seen before." … " The design principles are the same but the experience is innovative, slick and easy to use. That added sophistication requires a pretty savvy web strategy to plan and execute successfully. And while the barrier for entry is low into the industry, experiences that truly take advantage of all these details are few and far between. It’s a holistic approach that benefits the user. And that approach is entrenched in strategy and planning, design, development and testing. Leave one of those elements off your list of specialties and you’ll end up with a lopsided product and a frustrated user."

"PixelPads are a UX designer and developer’s dream. The first and only pixel-based sketchpad system that precisely matches the size and resolution of each companion device."

"I held a 6-hour workshop at NSConference in both the UK and USA recently, focusing on software design and user experience. Predictably, an extremely popular topic was the iPad, and how to approach the design of iPad applications. I gave a 90-minute presentation on the subject to start each workshop, and I want to share some of my observations here."

"Of all the platforms I've developed on in my career, from the desktop to the web, iPhone OS gave me the greatest sense of empowerment, and had the highest ceiling for raising the art of UI design. Except there was one thing keeping me from reaching that ceiling: the screen was too small."
