BBC Documentary on the Gutenberg Press
A great documentary from Stephen Fry and the BBC on the invention of Gutenberg's printing press. Where does being a technology geek, a design geek, and a fan of documentaries converge? Somewhere right around here.

Just a brief post to wish all of our friends and clients a happy new year. 2007 was our most productive year yet here at TDC and it's been a pleasure to share it with all of you. We hope that 2008 is just as great (or even better) for all!
Cheers, and Happy New Year!

My Top Five Indie Mac Apps
Prompted by a conversation with a few recent Mac converts at the last Refresh meeting (otherwise known as happy hour), I thought I would run down a few of my favorite indie Mac apps.

TDC Welcomes Mike Dupre
I am happy to announce the addition of to the TDC team.
Being a one-man shop is cool. I've always been the kind of person that prefers working on my own anyhow. However, communication design in general and web design in particular, really requires more than one head for best results. Clients help by contributing to our understanding of their businesses and organizations. Spouses and friends help by lending their own insights (occasionally these are the best). But nothing really replaces the input of another professional — someone that understands visual communication, marketing, and web — where they overlap, intersect and converge.
Mike brings all the skills of a seasoned designer along with the sort of enthusiasm for web technology that makes you believe that anything is possible. I am honored to have him on board and excited about what his role here means, both for TDC, and the businesses and organizations we have the privilege to partner with.

Using Related Entries to Set Sidebar Content in Expression Engine
Among the most useful features added to Expression Engine in the past year is Related Entries, or Data Relationships. This allows you to further section off content and data and use it in useful ways by creating relationships between weblog entries. One simple way I've started using this feature is to provide sidebar content that content editors and authors can relate to their entries. Details after the jump.
