Our bread and butter here at the Iconfactory may be icon and UI design, but we love any kind of project where we can put pencil to paper (or to pixels, as the case may be).

Even in the early days of the Internet, finding and keeping track of the pages you wanted to read could be difficult. Back then, adventurous individuals created their own personal web pages to keep a public log of the latest things happening in their lives. These web logs (aka blogs) spread like wildfire, and soon […]| Iconfactory Blog

We’ll keep this discussion at a fairly basic level: if you’re a web or app developer, you’ll […]| Iconfactory Blog
Twitterrific has been discontinued. A sentence that none of us wanted to write, but have long felt would need to be written someday. We didn’t expect to be writing it so soon, though, and certainly not without having had time to notify you that it was coming. We are sorry to say that the app’s […]| Iconfactory Blog
