Part 6 of this series of posts around my quest for tools that would encourage or facilitate collaboration with and between designers, this time, I went over what I’m calling the Githosters, also known as Github, Gitlab or Bitbucket.

Ma collection de portables timbrés
Dans tous les brols que je peux alimenter sur le web, il y a entre autre, ce compte Instagram, démarré à Leipzig il y a un peu plus d’un an. J’y collectionne, au gré de mes balades, des couvertures de portables couverts d’autocollants, une pratique assez répandues chez les bidouilleurs informatiques. On a déjà comparé…

Collaborative tools for designers − part 5 : Adobe Creative Cloud
Episode 5 already. Damn, so many collaborative tools for designers. Yes. And this post is about the one everybody talks about, but what they are actually referring to is something else: Adobe Creative Cloud. Let me rephrase that.

Collaborative tools for designers – Part 3 : Pixelapse
Reviewing tools for collaborative practices and version control for designers, this is episode III. And to my surprise, I’ve discovered Pixelapse, an online tool that promises to do just that.

Collaborative tools for designers – Part 2 : Dropbox
Last week, I promised I would be exploring some of the tools promoted as helping designers in their revision control and collaborative process and that I would do this by comparing them to a list of benefits I extracted from my use of Git. So in this post, I’ll be reviewing the (in-?) famous Dropbox.…

Collaborative tools for designers – Part 1
Since I’ve discovered and used distributed revision control in my day to day practice, I’ve been amazed by how much it has helped me getting more organized, stop worrying about loosing files and also encouraged me to experiment more and thus try more options in my work. And I’m not even talking about how it…

Blender shortcuts right in your search engine
Two months ago, I attended a community meetup in NY called Quack & Hack. The point of it was to gather people around coding to improve the DuckDuckGo search engine. If you don’t know DuckDuckGo (DDG) by now, it’s the “search engine that does not track you”. And it’s been my tool of choice when…
