Episode Notes

This week, Brian and Marshall debate the length of time between whiteboard sketches and high-fidelity mocks. In news, Discord announces a store, Breaker announces a podcast marketplace, and Refactoring UI is going to be a book. Finally, a couple cool things like a wall-mounted home gym and a book about capturing attention.

Follow-up:

• King Midas
• The Rules of Jinxing
• Nathan Gathright updated Podlink

News:

• "The Discord Store Beta"
• Breaker Upstream
• Steve Schoger and Adam Wathan recently tweeted about their new book Refactoring UI

Point/Counterpoint:

Slow Iteration vs Fast HiFi: How should we start new projects? Should we slowly build to high-fidelity, or is it okay to jump quickly into pixel-perfect mocks?

One Cool Thing:

• Marshall shared Tonal (hat tip to Michael Boswell)
• Brian shared The Attention Merchants: The Epic Scramble to Get Inside Our Heads
