Weekly Link Round-Up #37

Posted on June 30, 2008 in Web | Add a Comment »

So I think I am going to stop doing weekly link round-ups once i launch my redesign/realign. I think I want to have more of like “asides”, where I will just post an interesting link with a little blurb much more frequently. But the redesign is still a little ways off, so here is what I found interesting this past week:

  • Get out of a Creative Slump

    Even though I am not really a designer, I feel like I am definitely in a creative slump when trying to create this new design. Some of these tips are definitely useful for stirring up that creativity.

  • Learning When to Say No

    Probably the single most important part of freelancing.

  • The Employable Web Designer

    Andy discusses how web design students should rightly be worried about whether their education will prepare them for the “real world”.

  • Google Search Engine Optimization Starter Guide [PDF]

    Google has released a free 22-page Search Engine Optimization Starter Guide containing plenty of well-written, practical and straightforward advice for webmasters. If you've been looking into SEO for a while it probably won't contain anything new for you, but it's useful as a set of guidelines as to what Google considers to be good optimization practice. (psst, Google, with just a little design work it could have looked so much nicer!)
