Post Boston thoughts and musings Sara Pacheco

Today Laura, Henry’s evil doppleganger Michael and I returned from Web Design World Boston. Here are a few things I’m feeling compelled to share:

• Laura is kind of a spaz. She accidentally punches herself sometimes.
• I am kind of a spaz. I spill everything.
• Homepages are like hotel lobbies. It’s important to keep them clean and put a nice vase of flowers somewhere, but nobody really cares about them; people just want a clear idea how to get where they need to be after they’ve checked in.
• Wicked pissah is now a staple in my vocabulary.  Especially now that I know what it means.  (Thanks, Heather!)
• Web sites don’t look exactly the same in every browser. Deal with it.
• If you’re not on Twitter by now, you should be.
• Don’t overlook the details. Got a form? Default the cursor to the first form element. It’s the right thing to do.
• Michael can get ready in 12 minutes or less.
• If you don’t have a good copy writer on your staff, you’ve got problems.
• Development for the mobile web is really quite geekarific. I can’t wait to see how it evolves over the next two years.

Lastly, and most importantly, don’t wear Rockies apparel in Boston. It’s just not a good idea. Trust me.
