Graphic design is an important part of our work and our primary goal is make something that ‘works’ on the screen. But what exactly is design? What does HyperDictionary say? Design represents a plan to create something new. It gives form to an idea. It presents a scheme to be implemented.

Rotterdam-based photographer Ari Versluis and stylist Ellie Uyttenbroek have created this site to show forms of dress code. To which social group do you belong? The grouping of these individuals is really striking.

At the Digital Technology & Heritage Conference at the University of Bath we were delighted to discover that the Oakfield Campus in Swindon is the home of the Museum of Computing.

A sense of nostalgia came over us as we fondled the rubbery keys of the long forgotten Sinclair Spectrum.

I have seen recently a demo of the British Library ‘Turning Pages’ system for displaying books. Go to their web site and take a look here. There seems to be this trend for making the sense of turning the page of an electronic book as realistic as possible and I thought I would take a look round and review the scene.

I gathered an enormous collection of trade show trinkets at the Online-Information show in London yesterday.
I was amazed at the amount of merchandising that goes on for these trade shows. I do wish that they would give away tee-shirts rather than this assortment of sweets, pens and squeezy balls.
This web site is a kind of depository for all the things about getting stuff onto the web.
Also see my web site about my boat AViVA. This was built with iWeb (not exactly to web standards but interesting tool for web building).
