Diesel: Be stupid at work
Stereotyping Facebook with stupid and Excel with smart, Diesel have thought of a way to bring stupid into the office.
How to do this? Download the mac app which masks Facebook with an Excel facia of course!
Prototypes: Bring your mockups to life
The Prototypes app is a Mac App Store only program for bringing your iPhone scamps to life.
How well do these published prototypes function? The developers provide a sample working prototype that has been exported from the app, here is how you can try it out yourself:
- Go to http://ptyp.es from an iOS device
- Follow the onscreen instructions to bookmark the prototype URL to your iOS homescreen
- Enter PIN: 1467 5639
You’ll now be in a working app mockup of a fictitious ‘Garden Snap’ iPhone application, touch on elements and you’ll get a new screen demonstrating features just as you’d expect. Some things don’t seem to work, like scrolling through lists, but remember this is a UI/UX mockup viewed in Safari, not a full fledged working iOS application.
Its a great idea for iPhone developers and designers.
Now, my only gripe, and this is of course a my personal view, is the price tag - at $39.99. Its not loads of money, but app store programs are generally a little cheaper in my eyes. Still a great program non-the-less.
