A preview of my new project, T8Writer
May 21, 2010Since late March, I’ve been working a little application: a browser-based word processor accessed using a bookmarklet, called (for now) T8Writer. This project was inspired by a cool piece of software called Ommwriter. Ommwriter is a minimalist word processor designed to minimize distraction and create an ambiance conducive to uninterrupted writing. Unfortunately, Ommwriter is only available on Macs, and I don’t have one. I couldn’t find a comparable application for Windows and, anyway, I like the idea of a web-based take on this theme. Because T8Writer uses a bookmarklet, it can run on top of any open page; you’ll be able to click to launch it from any page, so you can get to writing as soon as the inspiration strikes.
There are plenty of details to discuss, which I’ll do as I get closer to launching the app, but for now a little video preview. You’ll see a few bugs and please forgive the clumsy narration. And yeah, it’s a little small.
Boy has it been a while
September 18, 2009No long explanation about why I haven’t posted in a while. If you’re still reading, you want content, not apologies. But a short explanation: I took a new job (full-time, in an office) and moved to Seattle. That means that twelve8 creative is now based in Seattle, not Chicago!…
It is not without some ambivalence that I tell you…
April 8, 2009…that I’ve joined twitter.
And it is not without considerable shame that I tell you… that I did not choose CraveVileTweet8 as my username. Rather, it’s @twelve8creative.
First impression: Unit Interactive’s Vector Media Group design
March 10, 2009I really like it!. Here’s Unit’s slightly anorexic case study: http://unitinteractive.com/vector-media-group.php and the site itself: http://vectormediagroup.com/.
