Proving Ground, a 1999 effort:
The spirit of the Proving Ground is to strive for the cutting-edge and head for the things around the fringes of the actual products. At the Proving Ground we can address the whole user experience in an original manner as only a third party can. And, we take that “party” part more seriously than the “third” part. We’ve had more than three people working on the things here — or at least putting links to things from these pages. So, without further ado — let’s party on.
