It feels like yesterday that I was doing some work for that magazine. I can’t believe that they will shut it down :((. The newspaper industry is shrinking fast and the economy is not helping.
The Play Magazine used to be one of the places where The Times’ graphics desk spent great effort creating engaging interactive graphics. Since Play was a quarterly magazine, there was usually plenty of time available to plan and create interesting graphics. I am deeply saddened by the loss :\.

I finally found some time to put together a list of the projects that I have worked on in 2007 and some highlights from 2006.
In 2007, I have had a chance to work on many different challenging and fun projects that required me to take many different roles. I have sharpen up my programming skills greatly this year and have fully adopted The New York Times' design style.
One of the skills I have acquired while working at The New York Times is the ability to deal with very intense deadlines. I have learned how to organize my projects, so that they are flexible for last minute changes and easy to maintain in the future.
Another thing that I have accomplished in 2007 is the code library that I built in Flash. Working with few other people, I have coded most of the standard components that we use here at The Times. That helps reduce the production time greatly and leave me time to think more about the design and the content rather than the code.
