Phew! After a great and productive summer working for Electronic Arts at the Tiburon studio in Orlando, FL as a user interface designer, I’m finally back in school for my senior year. Looks like it’ll be a busy semester: visual persuasion, music branding, graphic design, and more! I should get some awesome projects done in the next couple of months for my portfolio so be on the look out for my new work.

Boris Poletaev talking about some of the shwag from the Mix 2009 conference. We came, we saw, we learned… we got free stuff. Check it out. Mugs, magazines, discounts, software, books, gadgets, and more!

Today at the Mix 2009 keynote, Microsoft announced the launch of the all new, standards compliant IE8, now available for download. Some of the new features include: increased speed and performance, CSS 2.1 standards compliant page rendering, built in protection against scripting attacks boasting a 70% malware catch rate, private browsing, web slices, accelerators, and visual search.

We also liked that if IE8 crashes, it doesn’t kill the whole browser. Instead, the error is isolated only to the tab or window in which it occurred, meaning fewer interruptions in your browsing. So if you’re a PC, download Internet Explorer 8 right now.
