Every month I will be listing 10 of my favourites things on the web. Anything from web apps to games, music sites to design sites. Basically, whatever has been helpful with my work, entertained me or just put a smile on my face for that particular month.
Funny anonymous stories from desigers about difficult clients.
2. Evernote
Save web articles, notes, photos and voice memos in one place and access them from your computer, the web, your mobile and iPod Touch. I've had an account with them for a few months now and it's been a bit of a lifesaver.
3. iPlotz
Create clickable, navigable mockups and wireframes. Very simple and easy to use.
4. Dropbox
Store, sync, and, share files online. I use this as a way to show concepts and ideas to clients.
An excellent site for finding great, new artists. Especially if like me, you're into hip-hop.
If you're a web designer or developer, the Design widget by Sprymedia is a handy tool. It overlays an amendable layout grid over a web-page, as well as including a ruler and a crosshair tool to help with alignment.
7. AppBoy
Rates and reviews mobile apps.
Just type in your Twitter name and on one page see Tweets from the last hour, the last day and more than one day ago.
9. Taxi
A great website for design inspiration and news.
If, like me, you have a child that tends to wake up at the crack of dawn on a Sunday (or basically every day), you'll be aware of the B Boy Championships on Channel 4. If not, this website lets you see what you've missed.
From the Lovely Package website is this boxset design for the complete
series of Six Feet Under. No idea who designed it, where you can buy
it or how much it costs, but if you're a fan of the show, what an
amazing boxset to have.

I came across these mash-ups by KMT on The Find website. KMT's first album, ‘Waterproof London‘, is a collection of his mixes, which he is offering for free. He also has a YouTube Channel.
The Old Comrades website will be launched at the start of the new
year. Here are some screenshots of the new layout.
I designed an emblem for Old Comrades FC, a Sunday League football
team based in Gravesend, back in February. Finally, their new kit has
arrived.
Although I do love The Simpsons and South Park, Family Guy has got to be the most consistently funny out of the three. Here is one of my favorite scenes from season 8, a little nod to Patrick Swayze and Roadhouse.
Speaking of T-Shirt design, the latest issue of Computer Arts Projects is filled with great tutorials and advice about launching your own street wear brand. It also features some amazing designers and collectives, such as 123klan and Sixpack France.
Clever eco-friendly package design to hold liquid food, as featured on thedieline.com website.
I am a Web & Graphic Designer based in Kent. A large part of my work has been in retail and e-commerce design. I have worked both in-house and agency side on projects for clients such as Tesco.com, Terrence Higgins Trust and the NHS.
