I will be driving up from Boston to do a short presentation on Typography.

In other news, I've almost completed setting up a new site at a new domain where I hope to consolidate my online writing, work, photos, etc. I am moving this blog over there. Don't worry, I'll explain why and point people to the right spot shortly.

A minor update with a couple of bug fixes, a handful of tweaks, and some small niceties added.

  • Object and Embed elements hidden on Lightbox activation, prevents Flash movies and other media from appearing through Lightbox image
  • extended keyboard support (arrow keys, esc key)
  • added toggle in Javascript file to turn off animations
  • imagemap support
  • valid CSS
  • clicking anywhere in 'shadow' closes Lightbox
  • removeDuplicates function works with incontiguous items
  • a bit of code cleanup

Like I said, minor stuff.

This isn't much of a blog.

I'm rearranging the site to better reflect my current habits. I'm not dropping the blog part, but shifting some of the site's focus to highlight new work, keep everyone abreast of ongoing projects, note which events I'm attending, and other things to soon be figured out.

The site was due for a redesign anyway. Stay tuned.

Expect updates, new things, email replies, and more.

I can catch you up in about three paragraphs. Here goes.

I switched jobs! I left my job as Web Developer at 3000k, a small web shop in Worcester, about three weeks ago to join Meridias Capital. The Meridias Capital public site is a bit sparse so let me fill you in. The company is a mortgage finance lender centered out of Las Vegas with a secondary office in Salt Lake City. They have a couple of enterprise-level web apps that help faciliatate the mortgage finance process internally. This is where I come in.

I'll be working out of Boston with Michael Lowry, Director of UI, to architect, design, and build the UI for these apps. I was hired for my traditional front-end skills: XHTML, XML, CSS, JS, etc. but soon after my arrival there was a strong push to investigate Adobe Flex. After some research and prototyping we came to the conclusion that Adobe Flex was a better solution for our RIA then a traditional HTML/AJAX approach. So we have cast off into a brave new world!

Note: We will be looking at add another member to our small Boston UI team shortly. If you have Flex experience or experience developing web apps with Flash, drop me a note. We will post proper details on the opening shortly.

I've got a bit of a queue but I'm doing my best to address all the emails and comments related to the Lightbox scripts. And yes, I really should have setup a messageboard of some sorts. Next time.

There are new projects in the works as well. More info shortly.
