Where the design community meets.
almost 8 years ago from Justin Belcher, Senior Designer at Google
I love that the VP of design at Google is on here.
I think people are concerned about Pixate, as THAT is the tool they love. Google's vague plans for design tools in general is not necessarily any reassurance on the future of Pixate.
Given past experience, Google has work to do to build trust. Self congratulatory is probably not the best way to do that.
Pixate as an independent and innovative entity would have been exciting to watch and work with. Pixate as just another Google limb won't go its own way.
Try as it might, Google will never own design, though they may try to buy the best design products.
Too much bitterness, "Don". You joined DN 8 hours ago and the 3 comments you've posted so far have been in this discussion thread and mostly negative.
Whoa, you're parenting him. It's not like he's being rude.
I need you to not acquire FramerJS.
