John Nack on the “History of the Internet”

Clock Mini IconMarch 9th, 2010 written by

The blog post isn´t really new, but just found some really nice words on the “History of the Internet” on the blog of John Nack — Thanks

Melih Bilgil’s The History of the Internet tells, well, you know, using minimal lines but loads of attention to detail. (The fly-over of Cuba is terrific.) Adobe designer Ethan Eismann writes, “My new personal mission in life is to bring this level or higher of engaging instruction to an Adobe welcome screen near you.”

Clock Mini IconFebruary 18th, 2010 written by

David Carswell contributed a Microsoft Visio 2007 stencil incorporating the PICOL SVG iconset (090316).  This stencil is an import of the SVG icons, with aspect-ratio protection applied, and is released under the same license as PICOL itself.

You can download the Visio 2007 stencil HERE

I coulnd´t check the file, beacause I have no Visio. If there are any problem please contact David 🙂

For all the german readers of the PICOL Blog. On October 20th there will be a feature by the director Mike Schaefer in the show “Quarks & Co” on the TV channel WDR.
