Design Details of Google Maps for iOS | SachaGreif.com
I don’t have a car, so the lack of public transportation in Apple’s Maps app pretty much makes it useless to me. This is why I carefully avoided updating to iOS6 up to now. This all changed a couple hours ago when Google Maps for iOS came out. Playing around with the app, I was impressed by the design, and I thought it would be interesting to highlight a couple things. (Note that these remarks app
Why Are Programming Languages Sites So Ugly? | SachaGreif.com
For some reason I’ve been spending a lot of time on Hacker News lately. And I couldn’t help but notice that the Go language is getting a lot of hype. I don’t know much about Go, so I naturally looked up the language’s homepage. Now there are two possible reactions when seeing this page: “Wow, that’s an unappealing site!” “Hmm, that’s a perfectly normal programming language site.” Of course, both a

Now at first this seems counter-intuitive. You’d expect the opposite: that the people who pay the most feel more entitled to support, and thus ask for more of it.
Please Learn to Code | SachaGreif.com
It’s very surprising to see a post entitled “Please Don’t Learn to Code” at the top of Hacker News, and even more surprising that its author would be Jeff Atwood of CodingHorror and StackOverflow fame. Jeff is arguing that not everybody needs to learn to code, and in fact the world doesn’t need more mediocre coders. So he’s not that enthusiastic about recent initiatives like CodeYear that aim to d
Step by Step UI Design eBook
In this eBook, I’ll take you through my process for designing Kandan (an open source chat app) from start to finish. I’ll explain every iteration (including mistakes and wrong turns), and you’ll learn the reasons behind every design choice. It‘s just like watching over my shoulder while I work, except without having to listen to Lil’ Wayne! Note: Kandan itself is not out yet, but you can sign up t
