When my mind finally comes to rest
The last few days have been very, very busy. A lot of exciting projects going on at Boulevart and the beginning of a new “Chiro” jaar. Busy times or not, while being at work my mind is constantly busy. I’m not talking about answering e-mails or twittering. I’m talking about small things, ideas, inspiration, questions, remarks, … – tiny bits of information that pop up constantly.
There are few moments when my mind completely comes to rest, this is one of those moments: after arriving home, I take off my shoes, grab something to drink and eat and chill for 15 minutes in front of the television. I just stare and almost freeze completely.
15 Minutes of silence & not thinking about something internet-related. It doesn’t matter what’s on the telly (”home and away” for the win – yes I follow home and away).
After 15 minutes I’m already starting to get nervous and I grab my laptop – what follows we all know…
Is this me being addicted to something? Could be, but I experience it more as a strong passion…
My question to you guys: What is your moment of rest after a busy day?

Sketch paper for the mobile designer
[Crosspost vanop de boulevart labs blog, waardoor dit artikel uitzonderlijk in het Engels is]
Since we‘re all big fans of the iPhone and the mobile future in general, we want to help the mobile designer achieving his goals. For those who like to sketch the design/flow of their mobile app or website we present you: sketch paper for the iPhone and Nokia N95.
Besides our interest in the mobile future, we saw what the people at Culturedcode where doing and, I asked myself – “Why aren’t here any sketch papers for e.g. the iPhone?”. Since its a simple thing to do I fired up illustrator and started.
It might be useful when you are brainstorming or trying to find the perfect flow for your app or website.
PDF Files (300dpi):
Photoshop CS3 files (72dpi):
Here’s what’s on my to do list, but i’m not quite sure about it: iPhone-specific resources you can cut-out; buttons, bars, icons, grids, … – useful or rather overkill?
Suggestions or feedback are certainly welcome!
