Scrabble on Facebook is worthless

I just want to say that Scrabble on Facebook is just plain worthless.

I am playing a game and it keeps taking letters of the table and points from me.  When I go back to play those same letters where I played them before, that spot is not open.

I miss Scrabulous!  It was stable, easy-to-use, and fun.

The new Scrabbleis horrible, a bad way to do business.

If they were going to do this, they should have had something working first!

Font Conference Video from College Humor had me rolling

I know I am a little bit late, it came out a month ago, but I just heard about it and had to watch it.

I was rolling in my chair laughing.  It was hilarious.  This was put together by some really funny people at CollegeHumor.com.

I work with fonts off and on my day in my job and have discussions with people on what we should use on other things.  In addition, we put together some branding for my agency and I was on the team to help with that. The discussions we had on what fonts to use.

This just brings it all together and makes the discussion of fonts funny.  College Humor nailed it!

Great Story on Zappos on ABC Nightline

Heard about a profile on Zappos last night on Nightline on Twitter from the CEO so I decided to check it out today on the web. I can’t stay up that late to watch Nightline these days.

It was a great profile of a great company.  They are doing a lot of great things and their employees really enjoy what they do.  It looks like a fun atmosphere.

I came to learn of Zappos when I was going through the Denver International Airport and they had advertising in the plastic bins that one would put their personal belongings in to go through security.  I questioned it at the time, but I now think it is brilliant.  They have a captive office.

Congrats to all you Zappos employees out there.  I have learned more about your company by watching this piece and following your CEO on Twitter.  You should all be excited to work there.  You have earned a new customer.

Colorado Rockies Fireworks Display

I went to the Colorado Rockies game last night versus the Florida Marlins and then watched the fireworks display afterwards.  It was a fun game and evening, especially since the Rockies came back and won the game 6-5 in the bottom of the 11th evening.

But, as always, the fireworks stole the show.  It was amazing.  I was able to capture it on my Flip Video camera. Enjoy.
