While this strange year is coming to a close and New Year reflections and resolutions are popping up here and there, I would like to take the time to thank a client who has become a friend, and with whom I share many of my interests, passions and obsessions: Lionel Egger.

Great illustration found on Instagram this morning.

I’ll be honest, I was never a supporter of Flash taking over entire web pages, or sites. I felt it as a coup against the open HTML/CSS web. Having learned most of what I know by looking at other people’s source code, I considered Flash as yet another black box.

I was thrilled to hear that Apple was going to ship a smaller form factor this year, as my favourite design of all times was the iPhone 4 (and 5 after that).

We chose her name on a pebble beach at Hermance in June 2007. We were on a family outing selecting pebbles to decorate the tiles of our bathroom. The children were 6 and 8, the original iPhone was about to be launched in the US, and I my digital camera was an 8MP Ricoh GRD (I was probably still shooting film).

Rachel shared a couple of guidelines she picked up last week that I find helpful in terms of decision-making, and explaning, around COVID-19 safety when interacting with other people. Having to make decisions without good data about the risk leads to all sorts of behaviours.

Back from a few days off sailing and sleeping on our boat around Nyon, Allamand, Thonon-les-Bains and back.

Among the major features of iOS 14 announced last Monday at WWDC, were App Library and Widgets, both of which impact how your SpringBoard (or Home screen) is organised and how you access apps.

I found this year’s WWDC 2020 quite overwhelming in terms of what has been announced.
