// BarryBlog //

A creative dumping ground for issues that interest me personally and professionally, with the thought they may interest you too. Issues such as the business of design, the design of business, the design of objects, design strategy, creative direction, innovation, creativity, thought leadership, observations, as well as recommendations, mid-century modern decorative arts and architecture, and the state of my thinking (and currently the state of my heart).

BarryBlog AnswerTip: Double Click Any Word

BarryBlog is now AnswerTip enabled. I installed code, so double-click any word and you'll be given the word's definition, instant explanations, facts including biographies, tech terms, geography, pop culture, and more. All inline, without the need to exit BarryBlog. Using the database from Answers.com, you can view some 4 million topics.

Also, if adding to the discussion using the comment feature at the bottom of any of my posts, you now have an optional check a box, which when checked will send you any follow up/additional comments made after your own.

Blam!

( Thanks uglydoggy for the tip. I share your love for animals. )
