We are rebuilding. Join us.

We are rebuilding our site—live at building.seesparkbox.com. Join us, real-time, as the site evolves. It will be ugly at times. Sometimes it will be downright broken. But it will always be transparent and real. You can even check under the hood of the public repo on Github and share your ideas. Crazy, are we? Read why we're doing this.

In Control 2012

Honolulu, HI

Dec 2

Spend two content-rich days with some of the most forward-thinking designers and developers building today’s web at In Control 2012 in Honolulu. Better yet, sign up for Ben and Karen McGrane's full-day workshop on mobile:

In the morning session, learn how to build sites responsively when starting from scratch as well as retrofitting existing, legacy web sites with Ben Callahan, founder of the Build Responsively Workshop series.

The afternoon session with Karen McGrane explores the challenges and constraints of presenting content in mobile interfaces and contexts. Desktop websites have gotten cluttered with useless information that doesn’t meet user needs. Mobile offers an opportunity to re-prioritize messages, rewrite jargon, and remove outdated information. You’ll learn how to use mobile as a wedge to create a better experience for all users.

Get your tickets and join Ben and Karen in Honolulu!
