This is described (inaccurately) as the difference as being between moving the “thumb” of the scrollbar and moving the window viewport. In fact, moving the viewport is the same as moving the thumb. Scroll the thumb down and the viewport moves down the document, like you’re looking at your page through a window that can move around like a spyglass.</p> <p>In Lion, instead of moving the viewport, you move <em>the page itself</em>. Your viewport stays where it is, and your fingers scrolling are pulling the page up into your view. That’s a significant change in metaphor that removes a level of abstraction from the UI by switching your control from the window to the content of the window.</p>http://irobert.org/post/8055742661http://irobert.org/post/8055742661Mon, 25 Jul 2011 17:00:08 -0400<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/26278929" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/26278929">Franklin</a></p>http://irobert.org/post/7555586540http://irobert.org/post/7555586540Wed, 13 Jul 2011 01:36:37 -0400<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lm6tgbpmXk1qz57rxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Recipe from The World According to Garp</p>http://irobert.org/post/6123754818http://irobert.org/post/6123754818Thu, 02 Jun 2011 20:02:36 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lle3tq5r3y1qz57rxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am">instagram</a></p>http://irobert.org/post/5604682492http://irobert.org/post/5604682492Wed, 18 May 2011 07:55:59 -0400<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_llcysmbZp71qz57rxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>They come with hats.</p>http://irobert.org/post/5585176255http://irobert.org/post/5585176255Tue, 17 May 2011 17:09:58 -0400<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ll7bae3na21qz57rxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The Empresses of Ice Cream (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am">instagram</a>)</p>http://irobert.org/post/5489352653http://irobert.org/post/5489352653Sat, 14 May 2011 15:54:14 -0400<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ll1pe5vxR11qz57rxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Note to self (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am">instagram</a>)</p>http://irobert.org/post/5396647025http://irobert.org/post/5396647025Wed, 11 May 2011 15:13:17 -0400<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ll1ns3WdQT1qz57rxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>from Michael Chabon’s The Mysteries of Pittsburgh (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am">instagram</a>)</p>http://irobert.org/post/5395881996http://irobert.org/post/5395881996Wed, 11 May 2011 14:38:26 -0400<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lkwe8kjwFD1qz57rxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Happy mother’s day.
