Nice roundup of stuff there. One thing that does bug me though – why don’t you use / tags in your posts? :S

Thanks for the video on Kevin Rose…theres not too many people I look up to (the glorification of celebrities drives me nuts), but Kevin Rose is someone I certainly listen to when he speaks. That was an incredibly awesome video, helped me a lot.

Great list, I like “How to Code a Clean Portfolio Design (Plus Free 5-Page Template)”. Thanks.

@Simon Willans: I just never found the value of keyword tagging posts since Six Revisions has such a niche topic (making websites). I’ll look into it though.
@Brandon: I enjoyed Kevin Rose’s talk too – most of his points in the one above were intuitive, yet reassuring.

I usually browse through round ups like this in about 15 seconds then move on.
But I believe I will be here a while checking out most of these links.
Bravo job, I hope you made my web development life easier instead of creating more work for me…

@Goran Giertz: That’s my goal! :) Notice that I post these over the weekend for weekend readers – which is when I do a lot of my reading (online and offline).

@Jacob: Brilliant idea as we can really spend time getting stuck in, not worrying about time, clients and all that stuff.
