Despite your best intentions sometimes you just have to realize your customers and users are going to take a different path than you originally intended.
When you discover they do – don’t punish them – instead, take the time to “pave the cow path.”

I’ve been tweaking my photo settings here on the website since I first starting using Pressgram (partially because I can – I have full control over my photos! :-)).
I’ve posted them to the regular stream of posts, I’ve hidden them from the regular stream of posts and now I’m posting them again.
Personally, while more serious bloggers likely have a real reason for hiding their photos from their regular stream of content – I’m thinking I really don’t.
I’m moving this blog more and more to my online hub vs just a blog that I use for long-form posts, so it makes sense that you would see everything in one stream.
But I’m curious, what do you think?
Do the photos annoy you? Would you rather click to see them (click Photostream in the top menu or sidebar)? Or would you rather see them as regular content when you visit the site?
I’m all ears. Share you comments below.
Just noticed Twitter has updated some of their fonts on iOS 7. The new font only seems to show on individual tweets and not across the entire app. It’s interesting that while the single tweet font is updated, any replies to the tweet still show the original font. I like the cleaner, larger and thin-line font – here’s to hoping they’ll carry it to the rest of the ap.

Healthcare.gov has definitely had it’s problems since launching two weeks ago.
While the Obama campaign pulled off a nearly perfect technical campaign, the president’s biggest initiative has failed miserably from a technical standpoint.
A friend on G+ just noted that he ran a WC3 validation on the site and the site was littered with errors – even in the meta tags. Doh!
