Amazon's new e-book reader offers print-level readability and shines for reading fiction, but it has awkward interaction design and poor support for non-linear content.
Now that's a mashup. View business reviews, news, crimes, property transfers, restaurant inspections and more all in one place. We need one for Austin.
Android: Among a flurry of mini mobile announcements today, Google announced a new application called Google Goggles designed to let you search Google using your Android device's camera. Just point, shoot, and search.
" With other content management systems such as Joomla! and WordPress making strides to catch up to Drupal in terms of development flexibility, if we want Drupal to remain competitive, we have a challenge we have to face: we need to create a user experience that makes it easier for people new to Drupal to discover all of its richness and power."

Kia's site is: http://www.kia.com
Number 6 is Kia's new RWD. I went to the kia.com site and the RWD was pretty awful.
* MIN WIDTH:
-- images and text are blurry.
-- horizontal nav completly disappears.
-- the 3 stacked horizontal bars that should pull up a menu.....don't. They drop the main page and you're stuck facing a carousel and some monumental horizontal and vertical scrolling to see only models of vehicles.
* MAX WIDTH:
-- they don't have a max width and try to stretch into infinity. Stretched across 2 or 3 of my displays and I have the full site.....blurry.
* MOBILE SITE:
-- it's a mini-version of the main desktop site.
-- this works well on the iPad in both vertical and horizontal orientation.

I've seen great RWD when the min- and max-width are defined and the three horizontal bars become what used to be the horizontal navigation.
But Kia's desktop RWD fall short in my opinion. If anyone ever reads this, I wonder what their impressions would be.
The short video is actually fun to watch. A new way to communicate that puts it all in one place.

This is a really sleek looking top-layer framework specific for mobile touch interaction. The Art of Manliness just launched their new website, I suggest visiting http://artofmanliness.com on both your desktop and iPad to see the difference.
I'm not sure if this will work with our constraints, but I thought the TIS web-brainiacs could determine if this is good or unusable.
