I am very much looking forward to the Future of Web Design conference in New York, which will be taking place in November. I’ve been kicking myself for missing Event Apart, Boston since June, so when the opportunity arose to hit up FOWD, I jumped on it quickly.
Through the magic of twitter microblogging, I found out about […]
Yesterday marked the transition for SciFi — a science fiction based cable channel for those that don’t know — from its old identity to a new one. This has caused something of a stir since they first broke the news of this change back in March. The reason? Well, you can probably tell by now from the large image directly above this […]
I tend to be somewhat weary of “DIY” websites or applications as they pertain to all things design. There are tons of apps out there that allow people to do all sorts of things that they have no formal training in. While this can certainly be convenient and fun for the non-designers out there, the […]
In my spare time lately, I’ve been experimenting with creating artwork in Photoshop and Illustrator. I finally took the time to download updated drivers for my Wacom Tablet (Graphire4 4×5 — a nice entry-level tablet for the price) and have been having a blast getting reacquainted with it.
I’ve never been overflowing with raw illustration talent, and lately I’ve been playing a lot […]

The design restrictions were minimal; each design must contain the blog wordmark, and the tagline, both in our signature green boxes. Beyond that, it was completely open ended, and as you have seen, […]

Nehal beat me to the punch a few days ago with her Watchmen Post. I am eagerly anticipating the movie’s release this weekend, and will be in the same IMAX as Nehal on Sunday, which can’t arrive soon enough. In the spirit of the movie’s release, I thought about posting a bit about some of the […]
I know I’ve plugged these guys in a previous post, but anyone that is interested in email marketing should check out Campaign Monitor for both their excellent services, and their interesting and informative blog. One of their recent posts, “Smart Ways to use Custom Fields” got me thinking of quite a few great ways to enhance html […]
When I recently purchased the newly released Call of Duty: World at War game for my Xbox 360, I was pretty well-prepared for the high quality graphics, sound, and general gameplay. I had downloaded a demo of the game to make sure it was the one for me, so my expectations were pretty much set at that point.
What came as […]
I’m sure many Leibowit readers have some interaction with spreadsheets, most likely via Microsoft Excel. Whether you are a bit of a novice, or a regular spreadsheet-jockey, there’s a good chance that the Magic/Replace web app over at cleanupdata.com will interest you. It allows you to upload a few common file types: .xls – Excel’s native file type, .csv – comma separated file, and […]
