Don Loper - Why Web Design Awards are Meaningless
Wednesday, January 3rd, 2007
Don Loper sounds off on Why Web Design Awards are Meaningless . He has some very interesting points that ring true for myself having submitted a client’s website to many “web design” competitions in the past several months. Perhaps there is an opening for a Web Design Award that judges on three merits: creativity, design, and execution.

Advice from Milton Glaser
Wednesday, December 6th, 2006
I was browsing around last night and came across Milton Glaser’s Ten Things I Have Learned, part of an AIGA Talk he did in London (which sounds funny for me to hear since AIGA is an American institution). The essay is a beautiful testament to the wealth of knowledge and advice that Mr. Glaser has to share with all of us through his decades of experience in the graphic design industry. Personally, aside from Steven Heller’s contributions to the industry, I can’t think of another designer who has influenced me more through his writings and presentations.

The Beauty of a Blog : Graphicology
Tuesday, December 5th, 2006
JJ has a beautifully designed blog called Graphicology. I must say that his use of typography and photography has really impressed me. I especially like some of the PDF work he has done for a post on The Bottom Rung..

Loving Plainsimple
Monday, December 4th, 2006
Over the weekend I found an excellent blog called Plainsimple. Plainsimple is a journal based on the thoughts, photos and feelings of Gilbert Lee, whom hales from Salt Lake City, Utah. Some of the posts that have intrigued me the most are: “Richness in Simplicity“, “Hometown Typography“, and “Over and Over“.
