One of my favorite well designed web sites is Nick La’s N.Design Studio now the owner has launched a new site entitled Web Designer Wall. His latest post spotlights several well designed flash websites that turn the creators illustrations into animation. Link

Yesterday when I mentioned Data Visualization tools, I was thinking of tools that you and I could use to enhance our vistors experience without coding anything. Today I have to point out the work of Jonathan Harris who’s visualization projects are nothing short of spectacular. His projects “Universe” and “Love Lines” are impressive [...]
