Manchester web designer Phil Thompson
The Web Design Business Kit by Sitepoint is lauded to give great insights into how to run a web design business - its high price is due to the fact that it is a kit - as opposed to a book - and so it contains extras such as templates for contracts, letters etc. At a cost of £130 (at the current exchange rate) is it worth buying?
From time to time, I’ve struggled with minor pieces of coding for what seems like an age and then I’ve discovered PHP has a ready-made function whose express purpose seems to be to fix my exact problem. Today, I name and honour those PHP functions which saved my life, my career and my sanity.
This week, some good news regarding reading RSS feeds. FeedDemon (PC) and NetNewsWire (Mac) are now free.
Two months ago, I bought an imac. The reasons for doing this were plentiful, and overall I’m happy with my experience so far, but I wanted to talk about why I switched, what’s better and what I miss about a PC. Hopefully this will be useful to anyone thinking about switching in the near future.
I’ve recently added 2 new websites to my portfolio. These projects show a step forward in my design skills which I have been trying to improve as of late.
