I live in Brooklyn, NY with Anna and Hubble+Ollie. I perform music with French Miami, engineer software for Tumblr and co-created Views.fm.

You can ask me something.

  I’ve noticed a trend on paged webpages recently. To view previous content there is an arrow pointing to the left or the link itself is on the left side.

  This is very confusing. I know some fuck-head web guy decided it made sense as it is typical that things are usually sorted in reverse-chronological order and going “left” in 2D is usually associated with going back.

  The problem is, people read web pages, in reverse chronological order, and the brain expects more content to be to the right. Like you know, when you read a book.

  So please ass holes, stop fucking with my brain. And save a second of mine and others time every time I try to figure out how to view more content.
