Another busy week with freelance, but hopefully I’ll be able to finish them up shortly so I can work more on my redesign/realign. My hope is to finish it before I go to An Event Apart Chicago in October. Just a few interesting things I found this week:

Developing a better CMS
This is an interesting article describing the process of creating the CMS Firerift. Firerift looks interesting, but the website unfortunately doesn’t give enough details.
Use the Best Available Ampersand
As Dan has discussed before, you should always use the best possible ampersand. He gives a nice collection of great looking ampersands.
