Stacey, Simplified portfolios: “Stacey is an easier way to create a portfolio site. No database setup or installation files, simply drop the application on a server and it runs. Your content is managed by creating folders and editing text files.” Looks lovely. (via Infovore)
The Online Photographer: Tips for Finding ‘1000 True Fans’: A photographer, six months after starting to fund himself by getting people to subscribe to his work.
Chris Heathcote: anti-mega: Saving Britain’s Past: This really is a good programme, with a nice balance of old and modern. And no struggling to make stories over-dramatic, like too many documentaries these days.
Fader | iPlayer Grabber, the iPlayer downloader for Mac OS X: iPlayer has ceased to function on my G4 PowerBook - it gets about one frame per second. But iPlayer Grabber lets me watch things on it. Hurrah!
