i guess i could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me. but its hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world. sometimes i feel like i’m seeing it all at once and it’s too much. and my heart fills up like a balloon thats about to burst. and then i remember to relax and stop trying to hold on to it. and then it flows through me... - http://marc.gugliuzza.com/post...

Less is more, and Apple really understands that. Just look at this screen on the iPad - if you go to Settings > Notes, this is the screen you get.

Just look at this screen on the iPad - if you go to Settings > Notes, this is the screen you get. The only option is Font, and it only has three possible values - Noteworthy, Helvetica, and Marker Felt. It is so simple, it’s almost laughable. The technology to have those options has existed for 15 years. If Microsoft or HP was making this screen, it would have 50 font choices, and probably a bunch of other options that people don’t need. And it would be a poorer user experience for that.
 
And that is why the iPad, and Apple in general, is so dominant. Apple understands when technology is adding value vs when it’s being used for the sake of technology. And they understand that adding 50 additional fonts is not adding value, but it’s something a lot of other software companies would not understand.
Less is more, and Apple really understands that. Just look at this screen from the ipad. It’s the settings page for the Notes application. It only has one option - Font, and only three possible values - note worthy, helvetica, and marker felt. it’s so simple it’s almost laughable. yet it’s exactly what the user needs. many other software companies... - http://marc.gugliuzza.com/post...

This, in a nutshell, is why apple is so dominant. they really understand when something adds value vs when it is just additional technology for the sake of technology.

The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it’s real because that’s how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it’s very brightly colored, and it’s very loud, and it’s fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they... - http://marc.gugliuzza.com/post...

This is a beautiful song by Eels, a great band I recently discovered. Their Pandora station plays all artists that I already know and love; It’s like they’re the band that’s been missing from my library. - http://marc.gugliuzza.com/post...
