nAesthetic

June is going to be big for me. More than a few notable events are just around the corner.

The first being the renaming of my blog from Digital Exile to nAesthetic. I’m going to focus more on aesthetic than clowning around on my blog. A strong purpose in life (blogging life). You, in the RSS aggregator, hop on over to www.naesthetic.com (or the old www.nukeation.net). The blog looks hotter than ever! :-)

The second will be the revamp of Nukeation Studios site for our 8th anniversary. The new site is expected to go live on the 9th of June.

The third, which is kind of unfortunate, is my 23rd birthday on June 17th. I find solace in the fact that while I may grow old, I refuse to grow up. And inversely, as a child prodigy, I have more than two decades of programming experience now. Ah, 128BASIC on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum+ in 1987. Those were the (crappy) days.

The fourth, and perhaps most important, will be the release of NukeBall – the first in a series of products we will be releasing! As soon as NukeBall is out the door, we can focus on the WinFX tools we have been prototyping!

Focusing on client projects and NukeBall has taken up most of my time. Now with NukeBall out of the door soon, and the new nukemeister Parvez joining the gang, I will finally have some time to resume my old blog projects.

First of all I will resume the Exploring WPF series of screencasts. Carl Franklin has given me some tips on how to make it better. Secondly, some of the free dev tools like Mapee and NukeControls and all that. I also need to give a major update to Nukeation Labs’ website. I have so much content just lying around.

As the name suggests, I will be focusing a LOT on aesthetics. The new UX revolution is gonna make aesthetics a LOT more important that they have ever been.

dax, new blog looks cool.

About design i have some thoughts(if u allow:) from HCI prespective :=
(delete them if u feel it crazy)

1.Menu look more like reversed Tabs( just i feel ).

2.when i open your page( not scrolled position )and have mouse hand on eg. 'Categories' > menu pop up but i can see half part only and i need to scroll down by keeping away my mouse to scrollbar to view it full( btw, y do u have this much intersts ;) ).

3.Popup menus get disappeard after sometime while cursor is still on menu( not default behaviour ) (P.S. only 'Archives').

4.Popup menus love not go to home back even if i click somewhere else on screen.

5.Search don't look good in appearing as pop-up ( again just i feel ).

Daredevil,

Thanks for the comments.

1. You're right on. I don't know what I was thinking. Am gonna fix this with a small update soon.
2. Yeah, I've had some complaints about the menu/popups. Gonna fix that too.
3. See #3. The menus are very experimental. I'm make it all into Flash.
4. See above. :)
