1. Design Reset (via Nathan Borrow)

    Nathan Borrow did a side-by-side comparison of the New York Times website on the desktop and iPad.  The simplicity on the iPad is amazing and a much more engaging site.  Couple that with some tools (sharing, favoriting, navigating, etc.) that quietly hide themselves when not needed and they would have a home-run.

    Beauty and simplicity shouldn’t reside on a single device. It’s time for a reexamination and return to what matters.
