I’ve been reading the freebie downloadable part of Principles and think I will order the book…I’m more of a developer and know good design when I see it but have a rotten time coming up with original ideas.

As far as beards go, I’ve had mine longer than my youngest kid is old (9+ years now) – she doesn’t know what I look like without it. I’m lucky to have a wife that likes them. :)

I am just reading your book “Principles of Beautiful Web Design” and thought I would check out your home page. I am really enjoying the book. I am a baby geek so this is all great and awesome info.

I like the beard. It gives your face the the scale and symmetry that you describe in your book. A rule of thirds for your face so to speak. Just one humble Yank’s opinion.

Thanks again for sharing your design knowledge. I am going to suggest it as good reading to many.

I’ve been banned from growing a mustache. However, I’ve got a nice gotee going.

Ah man.. why'd you shave it? Oh well, I'm thinkin' it's time for "Dali December"", "John Bonham January", "Fu Manchu February", "Mutton chops March", "Abe Lincoln April"... you get the idea.

Hey Jason,
This is cool, it sounds as tho you preempted a tradition we have here in New Zealand and Australia of Movember (check out movember.com). The annual growing of a moustache to raise cash for Prostate cancer research.
The itch always drives me crazy!

Hey Jason,

The beard looks good!

I didn’t want Paul to grow a beard for a long time. He decided to one day, and I was glad. Wouldn’t let him shave it now.

Hope you are well friend, Cheryl

Awesome! Though (scratch, scratch), I’m partial to beards. :)

Haha. Man. this is so awesome. luckily it doesn’t take weeks to ‘ungrow’ it. That just takes about 15 minutes.

Beards, they grow on you!
