the project is open source and there are contributors who own portions of services under development (such as text adventures and private messaging).

because apparently people feel more human than human.
With Balsamiq, you can create wireframes but they aren't responsive nor can you do any real workflow out of it. In the Napkin project, our attempt was to experiment with the idea of combining wireframes with scaffolding - then you can export the app and continue development (design/more backend work/frontend/etc) or just port it to your preferred language/framework.
This was a project that came out of 3 months of development and planning and although it's still an early project, we hope it influences those interested in combining rapid prototyping worlds to contribute or build their own :)
Unfortunately, those podcasts don't appear to be linked from the original site anymore, but here are the track listings for all of the Club Autonomic layers http://clubautonomic.wordpress.com/
But, if you go to their official soundcloud account http://soundcloud.com/club-autonomic-com , you can see at the very bottom that there are the first two layers.
Hope that helps!
Another note is that rates should fluctuate depending on timelines from the client, their budget and requirements. A healthy balance of determining all those factors and your ability to estimate your abilities to complete work can result in a wider range of price ranges - either fixed/hourly/weekly/monthly, etc.
Most of this can only be figured out through lots of experience.
1. Maurice Merleau-Ponty - The Phenomenology of Perception
2. Simone de Beauvoir - Ethics of Ambiguity
3. Friedrich Nietzsche - Will to Power
I'd highly recommend NOT reading Being and Time by Heidegger - you'll want to stab your eyes out ten times.
Outside of pure philosophical texts and more emphasis on fictional works related to philosophy, I'd suggest indirect material that encourage ideas of subjective perception and point-of-view. Examples are works by Franz Kafka, Ryu Murakami and William S. Burroughs.
I do daily drawings, but sometimes I make two or three depending on the time available and circumstances. Does that count as afk? :)
- Commit to some rules on your site layout/design/font/colour. It's easier to associate links with a certain pattern rather than inconsistent presentation (e.g. you have a link on the bottom that is bold but the rest aren't. Should be clear why that is bold or all should be bold or none at all.)
- Information and typography are very important elements. Graphics are only there if you really need it but personally, I don't think they are necessary if you are only placing them in there to just have a graphic.
- The graphics you currently use for your project listing should be the same width (height may differ). Some are longer, some are shorter and it makes it difficult to scan the content.
- Run the text for each project across the entire page and avoid cramming text from two or more sections on a single horizontal section. It makes the readability of the text difficult since in some cases you only have 3 words across before it continues below.
- Think about spacing on your layout. The top navigation should be straight across in this current structure, not alternating upper and lower. You are only wasting space without purpose. Shrink the font size, remove the bold or remove the uppercase and keep it all on one line.
- You need more padding between sections (e.g. your intro statement, current and past projects). It looks really crammed together right now. If you are worried about scroll, there reduce the general font size.
Hope that helps.
