Ryan Berg

I write a blog, link to interesting sites, update statuses, and work on fun projects. More about me.

I am a user experience designer in New York, NY. I also do freelance web design and development.

Woah, it looks like http://roadandtrack.com finally came out of 1999. I don't know how far out yet on first impression, but definitely progressing.

And the Texas tech fans need to clear the floor. Oops! http://twitpic.com/s1l8h

@chrishas35 Shot clock starts at 35, and you don't see 34 until a full second has gone off, right? I interpret 00.0 to actually mean zero

Sporting my KU Orange Bowl championship shirt as an ode to the Mangino era.

December 4th 2009, 11:17 a.m.

@webology Such a shame that turned into "Mangino is History"

December 4th 2009, 1:36 p.m.

Hope @herbhimes didn't have a heart attack at the end of the Texas game. Heck of a finish

December 6th 2009, 12:58 a.m.

Rock Chalk! Time to watch KU at UCLA

Monday morning, and I've already had to fire up IE6 in Parallels. Bad indicator for the week ahead?

@webology The audio dropout is ESPN's feed, we're getting it in TN too. I'll take it over CBS's internet stream quality excuse for HD though

I took it and so should you—The Survey For People Who Make Websites, 2009: http://aneventapart.com/survey2009

After a relaxing night at home with @jlsisme and Phoggy, I'm watching some classic South Park and wireframing a mobile app

December 16th 2009, 1:13 a.m.

@ryanmgreene Okay, fine. I can now reference @PhoggyTheDog in tweet form.

December 16th 2009, 1:50 a.m.

@mattheisig I paid TN use tax on the new car I leased in IL but titled in TN. If that helps.

December 16th 2009, 10:41 a.m.

@davidorex Can't wait to see the new http://lawrence.com later. Congrats on the upcoming launch!

@nathanborror That vendor specifically sells a complete UX turd.

I love watching KU games with Bobby Knight doing commentary. He actually adds insight into the game, it's rather refreshing

Rock Chalk chant sounds great tonight. Props to the great winter break crowd at the Fieldhouse

@jordyn85 have fun! I really enjoyed it

December 23rd 2009, 7:32 p.m.

Flying with @jlsisme to go see her mom in Albany, and @PhoggyTheDog is along for the flight. Hope he stays a good, quiet boy. Benadryl helps

December 25th 2009, 11:10 a.m.

@notasausage Agreed. For better/worse this is probably the only trip @PhoggyTheDog will be small enough to come along as a carryon.

December 25th 2009, 11:29 a.m.

@brendandonohue I host with and fully recommend @webfaction and not just for their affiliate kickbacks :-) http://j.mp/7Ek9OM great service

Diving into some code I've neglected for a couple months, trying to remember how to manage it all in Git. My head's spinning a bit

December 28th 2009, 2:43 p.m.

@mattheisig No mocking from me. I used to really want a Mini Cooper S, and still plan to test drive one this year (GTI lease is up in July)

December 28th 2009, 3:55 p.m.

It's after 2:30am and I just cleaned dog vomit off a bed. And it wasn't even from my dog. Gross.

6am flights with long security lines suck. Just made it to our gate in time.
