It’s been a while since I’ve published much of anything around here so today, I’ve put together a set of 10 seamless plaid patterns for Illustrator and Photoshop that you can use in your designs. The patterns are available in both Illustrator and Photoshop format and can be imported as a .PAT file in Photoshop or as an .AI file in Illustrator. When you open the Illustrator file don’t forget to check the swatches palette. Hope you guys enjoy this set! Hopefully, I’ll have some more goodies for you soon.

Recently Facebook added a new feature that publishes a link to your profile whenever you like something on a webpage. Spammers took quick notice of this new feature and have created ways to trick you into liking their links. What happens is that when you click on a link like the one shown below, it will then take you to a page that looks similar to a Youtube video. When you click on the video, it will force you to like the page on Facebook. This will post a link on your wall to Facebook that will show up in your friends’ feed. The cycle then goes on and on tricking your friends into liking the same video or page.
This spamming technique is tough to identify and I will be the first to admit that I have been tricked as well. The problem is that the spammers often come up with provocative headlines that draw people in. Once you like something like this it can often be embarrassing when your friends see what you’ve been clicking on.
There is an easy way to get around this however. Just look at the URL (shown below) if it looks shady. Just mark post as spam.

Lately, it seems that Facebook is always in the news. We’ve all seen the headlines explaining that Facebook is now worth more than $50 billion, how its founder, Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in the world, how Facebook affects privacy and law enforcement, and on and on… While all of these topics are certainly open for discussion and interesting in their own right, many of them miss the mark. Facebook isn’t just a service that can connect the world, it can also connect generations. In this article, I’d like to talk a little about how Facebook may grow in ways that very few of us are talking about today but may in the future.
With over 500 million members, and a market valuation of over 50 billion dollars, it seems that Facebook is here to stay. Over the years, corporations come and go. Most companies, even large ones don’t last much longer than 100 years, and no one knows if Facebook will be one of them. With that said however, it’s important to ask ourselves how it will affect the world if it does.
Facebook Babies
If you were one of Facebook’s original members, some one who joined while in college, using your .edu email address. You’re probably at the stage in life where all your friends are having children. Some of you probably already have children. If so, it’s likely that either you or your friends have already posted photos of your children on Facebook. In fact, a recent Read the rest of this entry »
