Richard Morton has recreated Roy Lichtenstein's "Girl in Mirror" entirely in Lego. His explanation of the process, including several disasters, is quite entertaining. I love Lego and I like Lichtenstein's work, so how can I not like this. Link via Jim Coudal.
I'm a web designer living in San Francisco, California. I sometimes get the chance to present lectures and workshops at conferences around the world, where I speak about iterative design strategies, designing for large online communities, and more broadly about interface design for web applications. I've posted many of the slides from past presentations I've done on Slideshare.
Currently, I'm the director of design at a small gaming startup called Tiny Speck. Until October 2009, I was the creative director at Digg. I was also one of the co-founders of the social content-sharing site Pownce, which is now a part (heh heh) of Six Apart. Back in 1999, I helped found silverorange, a stellar web development and design firm based in Prince Edward Island, Canada. I continue to work with silverorange, but as an inactive partner.
I'm not currently looking for any kind of work and sometimes I take a long time to respond to email, but if you'd like to contact me please send an email to daniel [at] deltatangobravo [dot] com
I tweet when the mood strikes at Twitter
I sometimes review products on Silverorange Stuff
I sell my amateur photography on Clustershot
I post some of my personal photos on Flickr
I used to contribute on the Digg Weblog
I connect with people I actually know in the real world on Facebook
The technology that powers this blog was built by silverorange on their Swat open-source web application toolkit. I'm no longer working on day-to-day projects at silverorange, but they're available for hire if you're looking for top-notch interface design or web application development.

Deane over at Gadgetopia has linked to the Lego entry in the Wikipedia. It's got an extensive entry with a helpful history, info on LegoLand, branding issues, etc. Pretty cool. The Wikipedia continues to amaze.
