So I’m busy putting these new lesson’s sales pages together and prepping a new newsletter (< reduntent? ), and I’m kinda tired of sending out the same ol’ looking newsletter as always, so I was searching through my inbox at other newsletters that “cool” companies have sent to me. One of which was from [...]

Just got an email from a guy who’s wife isn’t convinced studying animation and making Flash games is the right thing for him to be learning. The words “waste of time” were used. And that type of negativity is hard to argue against. Especially from family. Whether you disagree verbally about it or not, just [...]

Lets be serious and talk about MochiAds.com today, because I want their url icon off my desktop already. I have a bad habit of dragging URL’s to my desktop if I think I might mention them here on the blog, and I’m in bad desktop mood this morning. It’s cluttered and must be purged. Like Lost-style, dumped [...]

This is very well designed site, ErguvanPlatin.com. Very simple too. I don’t read whatever language this is written in, but I’m assuming this is a fancy brochure for selling apartments in the building. And I know real estate in the ‘burbs isn’t exactly booming here in the US, but apartment sales apparently aren’t being hit as [...]

Wanna read why a top designer at Google would leave? Click here. Or be lazy, and just read the coolest quote in there…

Okay I just got one of the more enjoyable emails I’ve received in a while. Why? Because a lot of F-bombs were dropped, and none of them were directed at me. This was from a long time customer/ student, or cussstudent would be an appropriate term for him. Anyway, this guy, lets call him Tom [...]

Want a link of the top 1,000,000 websites?? I found this off Alexa… top-1m.csv.zip (9MB) . Thats in CSV format, so it should open in any text editor. Most interesting are always the top 200 or so sites, but its also fun to see your traffic neighbors. For example, just 4 places ahead of CartoonSmart.com [...]
