two hoaxes posted in a row...what happened to SvN's crack research staff?

Also what happened to this blog being about UI and usability? You do know just because you can post doesn't mean you have to?

I have been coming here for years and can't remember this blog being solely about usability and UI. It gets touched on from time to time, but SvN has always been pretty diverse.

It's "lighthearted-post-Friday's" here at SvN! It's been a long week.

I too have been reading SvN for years and am delighted to learn not only about UI and usability but also appreciate the writings/insights regarding whatever else trips people's triggers. Please keep up the interesting discussions.

I don't know... That Matthew guy is sticking to the whole UI/Usability thing. I think it's great. And I hear he's really smart and really handsome, too.

:P

See that little notice at the bottom of the ScoopThis site?
It says:

"All articles are fake unless otherwise specified. Copyright 1997-2000, ScoopThis.com. All Rights Reserved"

Ahem.

Did you also notice perhaps that the URL for the Metallica "press release" doesn't have "metallica.com" anywhere in it?

C'mon, these aren't hard to spot.

rainingOnParade: The crack research team has been researching crack so they put a squirrel in the SvN office, and I must say I like it.

For example, if you see an AIM window peeking out from behind your browser and you click on it, that window will come to the front, but the main application window will not. The Mail.app/Activity Viewer is another example. The Aqua system of layers works well in many instances, but not in all. Thank goodness that the Dock is always there to come to the rescue. I know that clicking on an application icon in the Dock will always result in not only the application coming to the front, but also any non-minimized windows associated with it. And if the application is active but no windows are open, clicking on the Dock icon should create a new window in that application.

At WWDC, I listened to Apple representatives make some excellent points about taking the time to build a 100%-compliant Aqua application, and I think all developers need to look beyond the code and listen to what the folks at Apple have to say
