So very much looking forward to seeing this film.
It looks like it will cater to the little bit of me who wants to go nuts and assassinate work colleagues.

This is a picture of my new MacBook Moleskine! Made lovingly with a Apple sticker which came with my new ipod (photo taken by Sean - I forgot my cable).
I might get a MacBook one day but I’m currently looking for a decent messenger bag to carry all my junk. If you know of a good place (in the UK or preferably online) that sells messenger bags suitable for a couple of books/ ipod/ cables/ hard-drive etc then please drop me a comment!
Heading to Cambridge on the weekend so hopefully I’ll stumble upon a good “bag” shop.
“Call Centres” - on average how many times do you find yourself speaking to a foreign country to someone who has absolutely no idea what you’re talking about? Would you want your web designer to act the same?
If everything could be local it would be ideal. If you’re in the UK, wouldn’t it be great to speak to someone who is English? The same applies for the US and all countries - this is all about keeping it local.
The industry is not likely to get nervous about jobs being farmed off to, say, India, in huge quantities but there are sites appearing offering ‘cheap’ web services for western clients. Yes we buy Chinese products because they’re cheap, yes we outsource all kinds of work to foreign countries and yes, I am passionate about the cheap labour problems here in the UK but… do we really want everything to be outsourced and imported?
I’m going to be honest right off the bat and say I just can’t stand video tutorials!
With tutorials for everything in there absolute abundance all over the web it is easy to find what you need without a lot of effort.
Using Good-Tutorials now and then to find quick fixes can be helpful but it can quickly turn into a long haul adventure trying to find a tut which avoids all the fine details. Video tutorials often turn up with far more information than an advanced user would need and still too dull for a beginner.
The web is a goldmine of fantastic websites and inspirational designs to keep your mind motivated and creative.
Many sites are overall ‘pleasing’ to look at which give you that “ah, this is nice” feeling but what is in the detail which makes you come back for a second look? Great design is something that sticks without even being sticky - a little flare, light or edge which either brings you back to that site and inspires you to create.
These designs recently caught my eye and have inspired me to create.
Mulling over some ideas for website designs and future projects I usually turn straight to my favourite source of inspiration CSS Mania…
You; You are the hardest client to please - well not you personally, but I mean when you decide to create yourself a personal website it has to be absolutely perfect. No exception. This is the key reason I love CSS Mania because it is full of people doing the same thing – pleasing client number 1.
So very much looking forward to seeing this film.
