Here a quick thought of insanity before I leave the office at ~1.05am. I dwell and fret over design, particularly when its me making the decision, to the point of insanity (a recurring theme here).

If I have a base color, I use Adobe's Kuler to get matching colors (with some rule depending) or I checkout ColourLovers to use a platte crafted by someone with a keener eye than I. Similarly I use a typography calculator to define font sizes relative to each other and so on, so on. I have a whole bunch of these rules and methods I use so I can sleep easier knowing there is method behind my design choices.

Heres one I came up against just there, I wanted to put in a nice gradient as background in something I'm building at the moment, like anyone else who is a regular connoisseur of GitHub's trending repos, I stumbled across uiGradients ([Repo](https://git

##My Notes on Vine

Vine is an iOS only application that lets you shoot, edit, and upload a short 6 second clip. You can search twitter to find vines using the twitter api:search 'http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=vine&since_id=MAX_ID' you'll get something like this (but with 15 results):

{
	   "completed_in" : 0.0110,
	   "max_id" : 2.982193446625239e+17,
	   "max_id_str" : "298219344662523904",
	   "next_page" : "?page=2&max_id=298219344662523904&q=vine",

"page" : 1,
