  • What Is SwiftUI?

    SwiftUI is emerging as a good way to build screens for Apple based platforms like iOS/iPadOS/macOS. It is a declarative language that simplifies the building of responsive views in applications. In this episode I’ll explain what it is and give a couple of examples. I really recommend checking out the links below for more details and plenty of visual examples.

  • New UIBuzz Podcast episode is in editing.

    It’s been a while since I released a UIBuzz podcast episode, my apologies for that. I have been swamped with work and that always results in side projects take a bit of a back seat.

    But rest assured the new episode will be here probably later today.

  • Episode 10 - What is a Game Loop?

    Show Notes

  • Episode 8 - First Moments with NextJS on the JAMStack

    Show Notes

    Any time I look to start or rebuild a personal project I see it as a reason to try and learn something new. I am rebuilding my photography site from the ground up. So that gave me a good reason to look at NextJS as my static site builder and find out what all the buzz is about.

    In this episode I share my thoughts on working from knowing almost nothing to having a working site using NextJS to build it.

  • UIBuzz Podcast Episode 1 - My iPad Podcasting Set-Up (Format test)

    I know what you are thinking, this is the same episode as the last one? That is true and yes it is intentional. The reason for this is I can only refine my process of creation by testing it.

    In particular the use of chapter markers in an episode, so hopefully I can learn from this and beg your forgiveness for the repeat.

  • The Life Creative Podcast: Go All In

    My problem might be my biggest strength.


    When I start something new I go all in, straight for the deep dive. I'll learn as much as I can, practice and push myself to do the best job I can at whatever it is. That's my strength, it should be yours as well.

    A few thoughts on how to tackle new things and have a feeling of achievement rather than just dabbling at something on the surface.

  • TLC Podcast: Always be you, be authentic

    I think it is very important to always be you. I get that for some people they might not like that, or maybe they do not appreciate the way you dress or talk.

    But by always being you, they know what they are getting, first and foremost that is honesty and it sets a level of expectation going forward.

    Please take a moment to rate and review this podcast, it really helps me know if I am on the right track. Thanks!

  • Seth Godin Nailed The Software Problem

    OK I don’t normally embed other peoples media, but this episode of Akimbo by Seth Godin struck a chord with me so hard since I’m a software engineer and UI/UX person that I had to make sure as many developers as possible listen and think about what he is saying.

    The comparison to buying a Car and the network effect really has made me think different. No pun intended.

  • New TLC Episode: Capture ideas when you have them

    It is very important to capture those ideas in any form you can when you have them, even when they might be rough quick thoughts. They do not have to be perfect, but capturing them is a must.


    From a few simple words, or a sketch, to a couple of lines of text. Capturing even the beginning of an idea has to be a priority for you.
