A friend of mine suggested I do some free live streaming of design and coding sessions on Twitch or YouTube Live. Would you be interested?

So for you define a container.

BUT does such a container have a name?

Right now I want to explain that we should make a grid container a container query container.

"Make the grid container a container"?

"Make the grid container a container query container"?

Both are confusing.

@ppk I would ditch “grid container” and just say “grid.” As in “Next, define your grid as a query container which will allow you to….”

The peace of my garden is being slightly spoiled by the out of tune and yet confident acoustic singalong a few doors down. I swear that version of “I still haven’t found what I’m looking for” lasted an hour.

Please tell me, “why do so many websites and products look and feel the same?” What’s the reason?

Alex asked me yesterday “What haven’t you done in your career that you’d like to do?” What a brilliant question. And tough to answer.

If I had a field or large garden, I’d definitely build an underground bunker.

I'm finally starting to write my 2023 talk. I'll be doing it first at Web Summer Camp.

The theme is how planning and iteration is the key to providing everyone with the best possible user experience, with a sharp focus on mobile.

Can't wait! https://websummercamp.com/2023

Finally got to try the 15” MacBook Air out in an Apple Store. Hot damn it’s good! Decent screen space, and as light and thin as I was hoping. It’s going to have be done.

Extra long drive from North Wales to Kent. Next stop, a night just south of Calais and finally a holiday.

👉I updated my portfolio with some work I’ve made over the past year or two. It’s interesting to see such a variety of projects all in one place.

I hope people see that products and websites can be business-focussed and have great UX but still creatively reflect a brand. Not all websites need to look the same. They should be different because every business is different.

A reminder that I’m available for hire to consult on creative direction, product design, and UX.

Scoob’s Mum died this morning. Anne kept my wife’s wedding dress in her loft, “just in case you need it again” she said. She told me “you need a good stinging” to cure my fear of wasps. Still, I will miss the cantankerous old bat.

Do you have a favourite non-obvious use of ? I'm looking for nice examples for my Grid chapter that will expand beyond "here's how you make a responsive four-column grid"

@ppk Happy to talk you through some of my recent work using modular and compound grids.
