Wake Up Later



It's been a little while since the last entry, so here are a few updates and outside articles written elsewhere.

Weekly Web Stuff
We've posted another series of interesting websites on the right. This week the links include Holgas, free stuff that is actually useful, a great list of fonts for people who don't use them much, and, of course, a series of photos involving plastic toys.

Outside Articles
Every once in a while, I get the opportunity to write elsewhere. Here are a couple from the last month:

Eight Lessons from Eight Months of Full-Time Freelancing - Probably one of my favorite articles this year (narcissist that I am). Published over at Freelance Switch, the article is a series of not-so-obvious lessons for any aspiring freelancer.

An Interview at Blogging in Boxers - Although I don't consider myself an expert in blogging, I've been fortunate enough to see some solid "success" through this blog. Here are some questions and answers related to blogging, the challenges involved, and the money you may or may not make.

Weekly Web Stuff


Stuff from around the web that we found interesting this week.

The Amazing Holga
Learn about the Holga toy camera, the plastic, medium format camera that photographers love for its unpredictable, low fidelity images.

Free Photoshop Patterns
Usually when it comes to design material, "free" means "ugly." Here are some useful Photoshop patterns that are not.

30 Fonts and Their Usage
A solid list of serif and sans-serif fonts and their usefulness for all the "boring " tasks that designers face: books, small website type, newspapers, etc.

Free Web Services and Products
A large list of free services and downloads for multimedia, productivity, security, etc. You're bound to find a couple apps that look helpful.

Toy Soldiers
War photos using "toy soldiers, some newspaper, a lighter, and a bottle of Goldbaum."
