As I reflect upon the totality of what I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been writing over the past 6 years on this blog, comprising over 350 posts in regards to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153design\u00e2\u20ac\u009d\u00e2\u20ac\u201dfrom insights, lessons, philosophies, to candid opinions\u00e2\u20ac\u201d it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s quite sobering, and personally gratifying. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s been a wonderful (if at times burdensome) task to articulate what designs means, to me and the profession at-large.<\/p>\n
Yet, I also realize that:<\/p>\n
a) there are ever more \u00e2\u20ac\u0153newbie” designers entering the field thanks to emerging vocational programs like General Assembly (and similar) who never saw my earlier posts dating back several years ago<\/p>\n
b) there are far improved platforms for socially virulent communications, with better commenting and \u00e2\u20ac\u0153tweet-ability\u00e2\u20ac\u009d aspects<\/p>\n
One of them is Medium, with its popularity and typographic quality for pleasant reading of memorable stories or critical ideas, across devices & screens.<\/p>\n
So, going forward, in an attempt to take advantage of this nexus of opportunity and resurrection of past ideas still relevant today, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be re-posting my \u00e2\u20ac\u0153greatest hits\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (and most important topics) on Medium, with some light editing.<\/p>\n
My hope is this will serve as a much-needed stepping stone towards a collection of essays in some other \u00e2\u20ac\u0153medium\u00e2\u20ac\u009d like print or so forth. #NotsoSubtleTeaser ;-)<\/p>\n
To kick things off, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve re-done a few Ghost posts:<\/p>\n
