Happy accident: I love how the file size lines up perfectly with the file type in our new file icons in Backpack. (These icons were also added to Basecamp and Highrise today. Campfire soon.)
You’re reading Signal v. Noise, a publication about the web by Basecamp since 1999. Happy !

on 12 Aug 09Really diggin this—especially how your file types now (or sometime recently) began to identify the Office 2007 formats like docx and pptx. Great work.

on 12 Aug 09The real question is rather : why do the icons for the HTML files display “HTTP” rather than “HTML” ?
