I guess my sister knows that I work for a wedding photographer, so she sent me a link to Wedinator to make sure that I always speak up if my boss goes to photograph a wedding like any of these.
iStockphoto has great captions for cats

Believe it or not, this is an actual page screenshot of an actual photo on sale at iStockphoto.
The name of the image has since been changed, so if you don’t believe me, then look at the URL of the page which still shows “fuck you men” in the string. [via]
Some people find the funniest ways to slip through the cracks.
American Airlines fires a passionate UX designer
November 5, 2009 @ 6:25 pm
Back in May of this year, I posted about a wonderful redesign project by Dustin Curtis who took it upon himself to redesign the American Airlines website. Dustin’s reasons for doing this were to hopefully inspire American Airlines to do something about their barely usable site and to generally give them a better online presence in the midst of competition from people like JetBlue (who have a great online website).
As the story goes, Dustin was then contacted by somebody — Mr. X, as he is known — who worked at American Airlines and wanted to clear the air with some knowledge of how the design process works at AA.
Well, Mr. X volunteered that information and then AA fired him for apparently breaking a non-disclosure agreement which is unfortunate because Mr. X seemed pretty passionate about what he did at AA in his letter to Dustin.
I’m not going to go into who was right or wrong here, but I hope American Airlines gets over their red tape and thinks about what they’ve just done.

Here’s one way to celebrate Obama’s 1-year anniversary of being elected to be the President of the United States: Obama Weather (brought to you by The Weather Channel).
Obama (or Angelina, House, or Bender) will show you how you should dress given the current and future weather predictions. Give it a try here.
New York Yankees website is a cluttered mess
November 5, 2009 @ 9:12 am
What in the world is going on with the layout of the New York Yankees website? It looks like the biggest jumbled mess I’ve ever seen. I go here to look up some information and all I want to do when I see the page is close it. Seriously, there’s too much going on here. Somebody should get Barton Smith on this right away…
New Amazon.com orders page in beta
November 4, 2009 @ 8:31 pm
Amazon.com has a new Orders page that’s currently in beta testing if you log in to your account. The new orders page shows your current and previous orders in a clearer way and gives you access to tracking information without having to load another page. Overall, it’s a welcome improvement over their current orders page.
