    Due to extreme business recently, I’ve been rubbish updating the blog. So I thought I’d share some quick links with you…


    Usability Post (link)
    A new blog I’ve found. Some really useful insights into the importance of usability.


    News Pond (link)
    Do I like the design? I can’t work it out… but hat’s off to whoever coded this badboy - attention to detail! Quite clearly (over)designed in Fireworks though.


    Type Tee’s (link)
    A Threadless spin-off, but very clean and clear with some beautiful coding. Worth a visit - tee’s aren’t bad either!


    Kropper (link)
    This would have been useful for an application we’re building for Duchy - it’s a JavaScript image cropping script. Looks very cool, although I’ve not tried it yet.


    Sprint (link)
    No idea what this is all about - but it’s very nicely designed and executed.

    A double congratulations directed to the crew at Poke (a digital agency just across the road). Firstly for being voted Number 1 Most Respected Agency by New Media Age. And secondly, congratulations to Simon Cook, who left Poke 170 days ago to walk from Mexico to Canada(!!) - he completed his challenge today!

    Take 5 minutes to have a look at Poke’s work - and you’ll see why they’re #1!
