Codebits 2009

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

The next days I will be at Codebits.
I’ve been there in 2007 and the experience of participating in a programming marathon contest was great!

This year the purpose is a bit different since I’m more interested in networking and observing some tech-trends and the competitions ideas (I’m still wandering about what projects should I apply or submit), but the expectations are higher than never.
Now let’s pack the stuff and get the ticket train with 20% discount (Sapo keeps to surprise me with this small sugar details)

PS.: I’ve just realised now that Codebits favicon is pretty the same than the one I choose for this blog.

Why should designers think big

What is design all about? The beauty of things? The simplicity?

Think Big

Tim Brown gives some examples why should designers think big on their projects. I think this kind of thinking can make a difference in the evolution of technology and societies and we have to believe that taking the chance is more important than failing! If we believe so, why not thinking at a bigger picture?

Recently I’ve been sharing with friends some memories about when we were young and the toys that made us salivate! Those were the times!
For now I only remember this ones, I will add more in the future.
