Show Notes:
- Last week Adam and Heather got married in Jamaica! Respect mon!
- Jeff Broderick is just a designer that can do a little bit of development working on various projects.
- Jump.TV is this video chat service where you can talk with an influencer, such as Oprah, all in real-time
- Jeff is on Dribbble
- Sketch 2 is now available
- Morgan Allan Knutson left Google for Dropbox and is very happy about the decision
- Adobe CS6 and Creative Cloud is out
- Many people have been “leaving” such as Wilson Miner of Rdio leaving for Facebook
- Jeff made ‘iOS Settings Shortcuts’ which is a custom web config generator
- Drew says Jeff has got himself a “Mr. Moneybags” … Jeff agrees
- The Next Soundcloud is out to streamline all the options
- Sketch 2 in 7 days is something worth checking out if you haven’t already
- Drew has always wanted to make CSS Piffle, which eliminates the need for photo editing software for web design
- Also worth checking out their ‘Pitch’ page which is well executed
- Jeff was actually mentioned in their ‘timeline’ section by saying “@CSSPiffle You guys should hook a broth up with a beta. Could use it on a project I have to start…”
- Paymesh is this app that lets you pay and collect money anonymously. They take advantage of tokens, QR codes, scanning the code, and then “BAM!” the money has been transfered
- Jeff demands for a good peer-to-peer payment system with many companies not able to do this due to money laundering
- Drew has $40,000 of fun money from Paymesh!
- Facebook certainly is getting all the designers. Drew hopes they do something with them.
- SPONSOR LOVE! Squarespace is seriously all you need to make a website with domains, hosting, support, and way more features for an affordable price. Use coupon code ‘theindustry5′ to not only get 10% off but to support The Industry!
- Droplr finally releases the pro version after taunting their beautiful ads supplying their free service.
- Simon Højberg created ‘CSS Arrow, Please!’ and Drew believes it will be short-lived due to it using the old ways with “CSS border tricks”. Now, you can use a whole element, but rotated and hidden. There needs to be an automatic way to do this.
- Chris Armstrong is quick, by the way. During the podcast recording ‘Recursive Drawing – Visualise infinity’ was published
- Adam prefers Instacast for managing your podcasts. They updated to 2.0. The Industry is on there.
- Instacast 2.0 now has a bookmarking feature with setting preferences for prefered speeds of playback
- Jeff doesn’t listen to podcasts that often. Drew only listens to The Industry. Jared strongly dislikes seeing many notifications after he unlocks his phone. Also Jared needs a secretary
- Drew brings out the elderly, ancient voice in talking about email as a technology. A new, improved system certainly needs to arrive
- Zerply raises $600,000 to the seriously kill the resume
- Adam is #1 on the leaderboard for “Podcaster”, while Visual Idiot is #5 for “douchebag” in Zerply
- Mag+ allows you to create iPad magazines from InDesign files
- Drew finds print being long due to the number of step and duration of the process.
- Jeff sees print coming back. Drew says we’re doing a full circle back into the 70s
- Funny story, Jeff started print designing with MetroPCS
- That is why print is a craft
- Jeff finds print being lame only because he can’t do it
- Pebble is rocking with over $10 million raised with almost 70k backers as of now with only 3 days to go. Can’t get a watch, but you can still back it with a dollar.
- At what point does Kickstarter become uncool? Jeff says when everyone gets attention. By the way Drew is eating again…
- Jeff says that the Geode from iCache on Kickstarter is way cool. It allows you to have all your cards with you without actually having the physical card. It’s been founded
