I agree that Symbols are fantastic - hoping they make inter-linking between documents soon for Symbols. I guess due to my workflow I've never needed Symbols that much - I've actually found them a hindrance more than help sometimes. But yeah, if you want to use them you need to be all in the same file, which is slightly limiting in terms of workflow.

I think Sketch requires a change in workflow.

I've never had all my designs in one file. I know some work that way but I never have. 700mb file? Woah. Again, change of workflow for a completely new program/app - you need to separate the files out into smaller, modular chunks. That's when Sketch works excellently.

The Lion King and The Jungle Book ones are alright. All the others are just shapes and colours, which isn't what flat design is.

Matias Duarte is Google's Jony Ive.

Wait wait wait.

Google have released some new design guidelines which states how Chrome and Android apps should look, and you're saying they're 'design-last'? Nope.

That may have been the case a few years ago, but they've stepped up their design game in a big, big way recently. Their VP of Design is Matias Duarte, who was the former head of Android Design.

You're underestimating Google here.

He's more than the Head of Android Design now; he's Google Vice President of Design. Which is amazing for him.

I've saved this to Instapaper so will read it later. Thanks!

I couldn't do that. For icons and logos Illustrator is still king.

For photos, I need to get Pixelmator until I can fairly judge.

Building model cars. Although I've been so busy recently I haven't done much.

But we should be writing an entirely new open protocol, rather than continually reinventing email itself. That's why we're where we are today - stuck with an outdated system for the modern world.

Jekyll's great. Sounds like what you want. You'll basically want a different template design for each unique case study. The templating engine is written in Liquid, which is so much easier than WordPress's PHP.
