Just out of private-beta this is a must for designers (and fascinating for anyone interested in Web Design). The delicious Dribble.com is a fantastic new community site and service for designers wanting to share their work in progress.
You can browse shots – screenshots of ideas in progress – take a look at players, the design talent showing off their work – or browse the tags looking at designs that use the Helvetica font or the colour blue for example.
Part game, part forum, part image library designers will find a lot of inspiration here and, if you’re really inspired you can bounce a piece of work to riff off the creation and join discussions about how to code the design in CSS — design geeks will LOVE it.
The site is currently invite-only so you might want to Follow Dribble on Twitter or ask your friends for in invite.
If you work from home and don’t have space for a dedicated office the obvious place to look next is the back garden. If you’ve already got a shed then the Shed-Working website has some great designs and advice for all aspects of shed-working including a book (coming soon) and a decent list of suppliers should you want to take the plunge — what could be better than a 30-second commute to the bottom of the garden, to be surrounded by nature, the scent of flowers and a bit of peace and quiet?
Garden offices look set to become the next big thing in backyards this summer and with some beautiful off-the-lorry designs if you’ve got some money to throw at the problem it needn’t involve to much DIY.
Remember Receipt Farm? Keebo was launched earlier this year providing a similar service. At only £49 for a whole year (for 20 receipts per month) they’re less than half the price for those with few receipts.
Interesting extra functions like VAT expenditure summaries, automatic categories and secure sharing of your receipts with your accountant or book keeper are a nice touch too.
Keebo promise to have your receipts online within 72 hours and offer a no quibble 90 day money back guarantee if you want to try the service.
