Things I Like Online
May 20th, 2008So it’s been awhile since my last installment, but today I thought I’d write a Work/Play version of websites I’m liking lately.
Work-related:
A List Apart. If you’re interested in the web – web design, writing for the web, usability on the web, pretty much anything related to the web – this is a perfect site for you. Over the summer, I will be relying on this website a lot for ideas and tips. More to come on why that is throughout the coming months (what a teaser!).
Play – A Two in One:
I subscribe to the email newsletter for Very Short List. It’s fantastic – you only get one email from them a day and often it’s about a site that I’ve a) never heard of before and b) now frequent. Today’s website was particularly fun to play around with — it’s called TuneGlue. Type in the name of a musician, click, and it expands into musicians with similar styles, click on one of those names, expand again, and so on and so on. While looking through this, I thought – how great would it be if someone created something similar to this, but for artists? That could be huge for art history classes! And for other interested parties, for example, those who write arts-related blogs…
