Tech Nuggets

Mindy has a hard time explaining her tech nugget: FormBox. So check it out for yourself!

Jonathan has a basket of nuggets for design. He was inspired by the article,  'Apps That Will Make You A Better Designer Even If You Are Not One.' He likes the Design Hunt app (iOS and Web beta or a new tab in Chrome). He also shared the Adobe Post app that had a big iPhone update and will have iPad support! Check out the new Adobe Spark web version.
