News from Dick's Desk
Website of the Day
(Editor's note: We got a nice email this morning from the folks at Awwwards (below) about our new website. One of our partners thought it might be “braggadocios” to post this. But since it’s a prestigious award within the design community, we decided to strut a little. Heck, usually it's our moms giving us compliments. --Dick)
“Hi Tom, Dick & Harry,
We are pleased to announce that your site has been selected as 'Site of the day' in Awwwards for 2011. It will also be included in our book 'The 365 best css websites around the world. 2011'.
Your award will be published at 2011-08-29
We want to thank you for the effort and talent invested in the creation of this fantastic website.
We invite you to put our 'site of the day' label on your website, we think this will help you get the prestige and recognition that you undoubtedly deserve.
Within hours your work will be visited by thousands of designers, programmers, bloggers and agencies worldwide.
It's time to give the big news to all your Twitter and Facebook friends and colleagues!
Thanks for everything. -Awwwards"
