This is Dhiren Shingadia's blog about stuff that makes him tick. Here you'll find ramblings about web technology, design and occasional, superfluous, spatters of randomness.

Disk Space Analysis
I’ve had my Mac for just over two years and I’ve only got 56GB of disk space left. Today I went on the hunt for a disk space analyser—something to tell me what’s eating away at my disk space. After some digging I found Daisy Disk. To my surprise the application is amazing! It visually [...]
Feltron Report 2009
For those not aware of Nicholas Feltron: he’s the chap that’s responsible for Daytum and a series of other information design projects. Over 2009 Nicholas gave his friends, family and acquaintances forms to provide feedback on meetings with him.

My traffic visualised
Inspired by Hans Rosling, I’ve mapped my 2008-09′ traffic using motion charts in Google Analytics. After purchasing Rosling’s DV software, Google has incorporated it into Google Analytics and Google Spreadsheets. Bring on the sleepless nights of toying!
If the walls could listen
Leah Buechley from MIT has been working on a project to create interactive wallpaper that uses low-tech materials to create an amazing display. What I like about this project is how it utilises technologies such as bluetooth: a technology that I still think is underrated and under used. What if your mobile phone could automatically [...]
