It's my #Twitterversary! I have been on Twitter for 15 years, since 3 Apr 2008 (via @twi_age).

@silverfoot99 Have you used the Post-it Plus app? It doesn't do character recognition but it does a decent job of capturing the individual post-its via photos

I'm excited to see the Beta version of Hugr out in the wild. I had the great pleasure of working on this with the great people at @territorialx last year. If you're interested in helping them create a world-class mental health support app check out https://t.co/WEVsv3mhua

Client: "We need you to design this flow, because you're a UX designer & you know what's good for the user"
(For the nth time) I don't know that, I'm not the user & unless I can observe users & do further research, I'm not confident about whether what I design meets their needs

1968: if only computers existed
1978: if only more people had computers
1988: if only the computers were all connected
1998: if only the computers could fit in a pocket
2008: if only everyone talked to each other using their pocket computer all the time
2018: oh

Someone extremely creative made a parody of "The Office" opening with the Toronto Raptors, and it's probably the greatest thing I've seen all year.

@silverfoot99 Yep!

@silverfoot99 @zutweets "So we'll just skate around on the ice?"

"Well, we'll through some 1080+ degree jumps in from time to time."

"Will we wear some protective gear?"

"Nah, we'll just wear spandex and mesh most of the time."

@silverfoot99 Where are all the food pics?

300,000 unsold Spectacles. Thousands of discarded bikeshare bicycles. Billions of emptied coffee pods. All thoughtfully designed but thoughtlessly thrown away. Designers play a key role in the waste we generate. We ought to discuss it.

For anyone who missed @apolaine's sign off in the #SXConf17 app, it's a beautiful summary / call to action. Let's do this, designers.
