Snowed In, and Being Productive

One of the upsides of a foot of snow is that when you're not busy shoveling, you're inside trying to stay warm. What better way is there to stay warm, than sitting in front of a warm computer, updating your portfolio? Many.

But I had six Bank of America projects, one Merrill Lynch project, a Chrysler design study, and one bit of pitch work for Budweiser to add to my site, and now is as good a time as any. Check them out at danielboyle.net.

What's Next

I have a few projects going on right now...

• First, I am going to update my portfolio. I haven't updated it since I started at Organic in June of 2008. That should say how happy I am to be here. Still, I don't want it to look dormant. I have a bunch of work for Bank of America and Merrill Lynch to post, plus some concept work for pitches. I'd love to share the site I'm current working on (pet care), but it's still under production and (I think) NDA.
• I'm still working on a redesigned UI concept for the iPhone version of X-Plane. It's just a design exercise, not an actual job, but it's a nice challenge. I finished the wireframe and interaction design, and am about ready to start pushing pixels.
• I keep noticing a small but steady stream of traffic coming here after searching for "cooking for nerds." I plan on restarting that series, but expanded into its own blog, with a custom design and a heavy emphasis on design and information, as well as the food.

I won't be bored anytime soon, I think.
