Aveleyman – Internet Curio

I came across this website the other day. It's a sort of internet movie data base created by (I hope) one guy. It isn't IMDB. In a world where IMDB exists how and why does this keep going. I love it as a testament to one guys commitment to film, I love the aesthetics, it harks back to an age when people made websites and they were personalised totally, (I'm not going to rant about the blandification which myspace imposed on the web). The site is just impressive- perhaps that's it actually- that I'm fairly sure it's one person behind this sprawling, slightly clunky but very rich website makes it a labour of love, a feeling which the more factually accurate and reliable IMDB lacks.  

Long Live The People's Internet.

Google Maps – Badges

A mini project I did in an hour or so in a lunchtime. Every place I've ever lived, in both map and street view on some small badges. Lower Peover, Cheshire - Knutsford, Cheshire - New Cross, SE London - Peckham, SE London - Brockley SE London - Mile End, E London.

I Got a New Lamp

  And felt the need to share.

Another new vs old thing going on here. First up a site which is preserved perfectly in the 90s. A great example of the world wide web before facebook got it's hands on it. A truly individual effort and something which should be preserved, maybe I'll start a museum for such extraordinary pieces. Serisously- "A fully independent site designed and created by Godfrey Dykes (c) Powered by electricity!" Link:here

Then we have the new- It's a music video for 'You Broke My Heart Baby'  by Solange La Frange. I guess this is like html 5 or something but it's super cool. A nice simple idea executed really well and one of those things I wish I'd done first. Get clicking: here.
