Can somebody provide some context for the video?

It's incredible to see how many of the concepts in this video is still present in a modern user interface.

That is so corny.

"Questions for the women of HN"

There are women here?!

Icon fonts have always been kind of a hack. SVG is the right formats for many reason - the primary reason: it's XML. We just need better browser support.

Nice to see Draw.io using our API for images :-)

I'm a son of an immigrant. Why?

Danish Exceptionalism? Nah.

Or Iconfinder :-D

I still believe using fonts to show icons is a hack. When we have better support for SVG files in browsers I believe that will be the most popular way of displaying icons. Simply because icon fonts are harder to user and edit. With SVG files the icons are delivered in XML format that can easily be manipulated by eg. JS. The downside is of course the many server requests it will require - one per icon.

Hi. We deleted it, but posted a much better comment here: http://bruun.co/2013/03/06/who-owns-flat

The blog is our CTO's.

Layervault are going after Microsoft now with their "Metro style"... those copycats!

The glyph are coming in a few :-)

Hey, Iconfinder here :-)

We care a lot about stating the license clearly since it's essential to our business. Also if there is anything copyright infringing on our site we'll remove it immediately. As far as I can tell, this icon is created by the Oxygen team and the license information is correctly presented on our site.

All the music is on Spotify as well. I have created a shared playlist here: http://open.spotify.com/user/iconfinder/playlist/20cY7KpZVsk...

As we've only just scratched the surface of our ideas and the opportunities Iconfinder holds, we're looking for a savvy colleague to help us move Iconfinder ahead even faster.
