Yahoo! OpenID SREG
I've known this was coming for some time now, but just spotted it 'in the wild' today. I worked on elements of the UI for attribute exchange between sites with Open ID (the SREG extension.) I tag-teamed on the...
Yahoo! Open
Chris Heilmann does as good a job as I've seen of explaining the changes coming to Yahoo! (and a bit of "why they're coming" as well.) Opening up Yahoo! to Users and DevelopersView SlideShare presentation or Upload your own. (tags:...
Open, to Some
Over on the YDN blog, our (brand spankin' new!) Open Standards Evangelist Eran has announced something cool. It's the First OAuth Summit and it's coming up quick. This is a great event, tho' I'm a bit frustrated at the super-short...
Patterns of Reputation Representation
It is with a certain sense of pride that I watch as fellow Yahoo Christian Crumlish announces the arrival of a number of Reputation Patterns to the Yahoo! Design Pattern Library. If you've seen me speak in recent months...
Equal Time
Jason Long points to a long list of published papers from Google Researchers. I just wanted to point out that Yahoo! Research keeps a list as well. (I, like Jason, am baffled by a larger percentage of them, however—some look...
Speaking at the 2008 IA Summit
.flickr-photo { border: solid 2px #000000; } .flickr-yourcomment { } .flickr-frame { text-align: left; padding: 3px; } .flickr-caption { font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px; } No... really. For real this time! (You may recall that I've boasted, erroneously, about this...
Droidmaker
One of my biggest frustrations in telecommuting for Yahoo! is this: I miss a lot of amazing speakers. A lot. Technologists, entrepreneurs, social scientists, Nobel-prize winners (no lie!) have come through Yahoo's campus since I started work more than a...
In the Bay Area
I've been in California this week, catching up on new assignments at work: meeting new team-members, hatching plans, updating sprints and generally staying pretty busy. Which is good, because if I paused to think of how much I miss my...
Erin's Back
My old friend and several-times-over boss Erin Malone has started blogging again. Erin's the newly-minted User Experience Director for the Yahoo! Developer Network (and a helluva photographer, IA, dog-and-cat lover, and a buncha other stuff too.) So I'd keep an...
More Metreon, and the plight of the urban mall concept
After my reminiscences about the Sony Metreon, fellow Yahoo! Andy Proehl weighed in (via email, posted here with his permission): It is no longer affiliated with Sony. I worked at Sony for about 10 years in their design group. I...
Yahoo! UK Message Boards, now with Reputation
As promised, I am in Pittsburgh on a Friday night, holed up in a classroom on 5th-floor Wean on the Carnegie-Mellon campus. We've had a pretty good ebb-and-flow of interested student hackers.. we're down to only the hardcore now (and...
I've eaten a river of liver, and an ocean of fish!
Yes, as Christian points out, Mash is in public beta. And... I gotta say... it's kinda fun! (Although I can't wait until someone publishes a friendlier CSS module w/finer-grained controls.) My profile is here and if you'd like an invite...
Vote to Promote, and the Yahoo! Open Pattern Library
If you've arrived here at Soldier Ant from the Yahoo! User Interface Blog, Welcome! This is (mostly), a blog about nothing. Kinda like Seinfeld, only... um... not funny. Anyway, as Christian notes, today he pushed a pattern to the Open...
Now with Ajax! (Tagliner is born)
Yep. I, too, have followed the siren call of superfluous interface effects. If you visit the site, SoldierAnt.net (c'mon you feed-readers: fire up that browser and come check it out), you'll notice that I've added a dynamic tagline at the...
Feed Tweaks
I'm mucking around a little bit with my RSS feed (for the whole six of you that subscribe to it.) After swapping out templates last week, I realized that it obscured the access-point to my FeedBurner feed for Soldier Ant....
