A old fashioned Weblog

Tuesday - Wednesday's 10

1. Top 10 Tips for New Bloggers From Original Blogger Jorn Barger
Pretty much sums up what the purpose of blogging was suppose to be vs what it has become.
found on digg.com

2. Lula Magazine
The most recent issue mentions "The Virgin Suicides". A magazine after my own heart.

3. Squidoo
Social Network of "How To" and "Need to Know" Lists. I hope all this content creating for other sites eventually pays off.
found on 2007 SXSW Web Awards

4. Urban Outfitters Website Redesign
I felt that I somehow had an advantage over them because I had moved on from the collage style that has defined them since I first visited the site in 2003. It looks fantastic! I'm somewhere between inspired and defeated.
found when clicking on their newsletter

5. Page Rank SEO Blog
The best looking SEO site I've seen. The owner is behind JoJo CMS which I am really excited about.
don't remember how I got there but I will be there until I finish reading everything

6. Edward Hann's IDP06 Information Diagram
I love information diagrams. A lot.

7. This picture of SomethingLabs:

I believe in putting things back where you found them instead of losing things on a regular basis.

8. The Horizontal Way
Call me old fashioned but I'm still not ready for this. Day 19 was the first site I actually noticed doing this in 2003 and I just remember that first "wtf" moment and that has been enough to steer me away.

9. Soulwax
Now I have no excuse to keep up with their every move.

10. Evolution of a Header
I love the results.
remembered the site when I saw UO's redesign (#4)

Honorable Mention: I can't get this grid layout out of my head.
