Rodent Regatta

For two days I’ve plowed through every good design of a weblog I can find looking for ideas and techniques. Mark Pilgrim was right when he valued content over form. But, I can’t help myself. Some of the designs of these sites simply invite readership. Sure, I’m only going to read a grand total of 2 posts about somebody’s cat, but without the great design, I’d read far less than that! This whole HTML thing is impressive when you see it done right. Now I’m hoping that all of it isn’t so tied to someone’s artistic flair that design-challenged morons like me can never produce good-looking work.

Top 10 Web Design Lists. TaskZ maintains a Top 10 List Archives and its newest addition is the Top 10 Information Architecture and Interface Design Sites. List is pretty accurate, in my opinion. [Link LucDesk]... [meryl’s notes]
