I’m a product, web and app designer. Among my professional interests are information display, web, user interface, typography, typefaces and layout.

I’m fascinated by transportation, signage and wayfinding.

I enjoy music and sometimes compose my own.

I live in Chelyabinsk, Russia.

Why can’t they (a) have one process pre-created and ready for me before are press ⌘T or (b) don’t use a separate process to display an empty tab with Top Sites and create a process only after opening it? Or both :-)
