“An error doesn’t become a mistake until you refuse to correct it.”

I don’t talk much about my job on here, but most days I spend my time with meltmedia, designing sites and applications for the web. My most recent project has been a refresh of our corporate website. It was a particularly fun, but quick project where I was able to design, develop, and write the site’s content.

Check out my post on meltmedia’s blog that details what we changed and why we changed it: A meltmedia.com Refresh. And check out the full meltmedia.com and tell me what you think!

After my first Paintstagram attempt, I decided to try again for my boss and friend, Dave Woodruff. His birthday was last month, and after weeks of procrastination, I finally finished his Paintstagram. It’s a 6" x 6" of an Instagram he took on the New York subway.

And, here’s the Instagram Dave took of the painting of the Instagram. Inceptiongram, as some people say.

Clay and I saw Ted yesterday and, although I had little to no expectations, it was much better than I thought it would be. My biggest worry was that it would be a really long Family Guy episode, but it had a decent plot and pretty good character development. Some parts were definitely hilarious and others a little too forced. The best thing this movie accomplishes is showing me I can enjoy a Mark Wahlberg movie. (Ok, ok, I did like the Italian Job but I don’t think anyone’s claiming that’s a masterpiece of cinema.)

For fans of Family Guy, it will be difficult to separate Ted from Peter Griffin, and even harder to feel normal about Lori sounding so much like Meg. Giovanni Ribisi steals every scene he’s in, and a cameo by Ryan Reynolds will make you giggle. All in all, it’s a fun little film, but nothing to write home about.

Check out this LEGO recreation of the Battle at Helm’s Deep. Pretty awesome.
