Inspiring Design
I have been trying to get a little more disciplined about keeping track of web sites that I find inspiring. I spend so much time building web applications that I often find it necessary to step back and refresh myself a bit with others work. I’m NOT a designer, but I appreciate great design. I’m more of a nuts and bolts guy that spends a lot of time working on the plumbing of highly interactive and dynamic web applications. Anyway, here are some sites that I stumbled across this week that I think look fabulous (you can also find these in my delicious bookmarks).
Lokesh Dhakar’s new blog is beautiful. I love the simple elegance. I also really love that the navigation on the right remains in place as you scroll the page.

The following two links are evidently some mockups that were done for The Internet Movie Database. It is always refreshing to see such great layout when there is actually a lot of stuff to put on a page. I also really like the contrast between rounded and non-rounded corners. (via thebignoob)
