Ooooh, the frustration

Posted on July 29, 2002 ~ Filed Under Diary

Another day, another disappointing website annoys me. How do design agencies get away with the rubbish designs that get passed off as corporate websites? Today’s horrible example is www.cccmedia.co.uk, which is probably a fantastic organisation, but with a site design by memyself and i. AVOID AVOID AVOID. And it’s really not like me to be [...]

Having spent all week trying to get to the top of City Hall, the newest of London’s public buildings, I finally got there today. It was almost worth the wait. The view from the 9th floor is fantastic, especially as you can see my flat :-) The chamber looks like a boring European parliament, but [...]

Welcome to the new site

Inspired by the Guardian, I thought I’d try "blogging". I’ve also gone for a full redesign of the site, just for kicks. I hope you like it; I’m still getting used to it :-)
