Notes for week #250

It’s been a while since the last time I wrote weekly notes. We’ve been busy – a good thing, no doubt. Since the time we announced we were only doing a total of 4 consulting gigs this year, we’ve accepted one and have a second one on the deal table. We’re quite happy with the [...]

Notes for week #241

Never underestimate the impact of freshly vacuumed studio. We started the week by rolling up our sleeves and cleaning up – something we were in dire need of doing, as the office was looking like the result of a high-speed crash between an Apple shop (because we’re all mac-heads), a Lego Factory (don’t ask) and [...]

Heading out to (and sponsoring) UX-LX Lisbon

Being a team of user experience enthusiasts, we were extremely excited when we got word of Ux-Lx, a user experience conference, in Lisbon, organized by one of our friends. We got even more excited when we saw the line-up. People like Pete Merholz of Adaptive Path, Jared Spool, Dan Saffer, Luke Wroblewski or Manuel [...]

Notes for week #239

You’ll notice this post is a few days late. New years got in the way of a timely post, but I believe the material herein makes up for it. This was a slow but important week. 2009 is done – it’s funny how time flies. The office stood still as we gathered with families, friends to [...]

Notes for week #238

It being christmas, the office has been a little slow. Planning the future seems to be on everyone’s mind these days – future being the year of 2010, now desperately close. Time doesn’t necessarily slow down (it just bends slightly). The question of whether we should keep building products and providing consulting services or just [...]

Notes for week #237

Matt Webb of BERG (formerly Schulze & Webb) has been documenting the weekly life of their studio and ever since they got started, I’ve been meaning to do it myself. We’re starting these weekly notes hoping it will bring clarity to the way we work and think at WBS. At the very least, it is [...]

Lessons Learned – Part 1

This is cross-posted with my personal blog, which is why it is often written in the first person. Given how readers of this blog might benefit from these thoughts as well, we decided it’d be a good fit to post it up here for you to read. Enjoy! I’ve recently given a talk to future entrepreneurs [...]

The Yahoo deal was all about innovation

Everyone is talking about the Microsoft + Yahoo search deal – it’s all over the news. There’s something lying beneath the economics of the whole thing that bothers me in particular, however. Something Jason Calacanis highlighted in his latest newsletter/post – how Yahoo lost the fight when they stopped innovating. The fact that there was a [...]

On Goplan 2’s Logo design

We often have little opportunity to go through the details of how we do our work, so this post may interest you. On the Goplan (our project management web application – which you should try out, by the way) blog, one of our designers goes through the process he took to design the identity for [...]

Goplan 2 is out!

Boy, have we been quiet lately. The last few months have been hectic. As some of you may know, we’ve been busy rewriting one of our products – Goplan -, and have finally gone live with the new version on Friday. Back in 2006 we weren’t too happy about the existing project management and collaboration solutions [...]
