Do you struggle to get design sign off?

Touted as "making Design sign-off a breeze", GetSignOff.com is a site that helps website designers get approval from clients. GetSignoff.com provides a mechanism for presenting your site designs, managing feedback and organising multiple versions of a design. It works very much like BaseCamp in terms of creating projects, assigning people to the project, etc --- but its ability to make notes and comments on the actual design mock-up where I think this site has potential. I've only poked around on the site a little bit and my only comment is that in might be a little too complicated for some clients -- (the non web savy ones). Regardless I think this site is worth a closer look and try.

It says it is built for websites approval, but I think it could be used for any design project that requires input and comments. Here's the site.

Create an online magazine

OpenZine (pronounced "openzeen") is a website that allows users to easily create and share online magazines.

How fast is your internet connection?

Speedtest.net is a nifty site that calculates your connection speed and then compares it to places locally or around the World. I'm on Rogers here at home and you know how their ads claim they're the fastest ... well, here in Moncton, they are. Unless you are connected to the Department of Education service. For the rest of the province, Eastlink is actually a lot faster then Rogers. So much for truth in advertising.
