Internet laptop things May 20, 13, 6:49 a.m.

Alright?

You know those netbook/Chromebook/small laptop things you can get these days – are they any good?

I quite fancy something with a proper keyboard that is portable that I can chuck in a messenger back that doesn't cost the earth.

I'm an Apple fan but blowing £1000+ on an Air or 13" MacBook is a little out of my budget these days so I don't mind sacrificing OS X if I'm only really using it for internet and basic document creation/editing.

What do you peeps say? Anyone got one?

Studio VS Agency VS Consultancy VS Firm May 20, 13, 9:59 a.m.

A question for everyone: How do you determine which noun is the proper semantic when describing you design/creative business?

To give some background - The company I currently work for is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a much larger company. We are a small group - about 15 employees, and are wondering what is the best term to describe this venture.

Studio - we feel studio might earmark us as 'too small' for our audience. Although our staff is relatively low we don't want to give the impression that we are just a couple of people in someones garage.

Agency - We feel this makes us appear larger than we are, although the term is not inaccurate. We just don't want to be mistaken for a really large agency.

Consultancy - this makes it sound like we don't actually do the work but rather simply 'consult' on it.

Firm - too boring?

Anyway, i'm curious to see what others think.

Name this design style May 20, 13, 11:09 a.m.

I know it's kind of hipster-y but does it have a name? It reminds me of Delaunay Triangulation but that's more related to fracturing photographs.

A good Booking Calendar for WP? May 20, 13, 4:24 p.m.

I need a booking calendar for Wordpress that will display a calendar and highlight multi day events - and will accept booking though a form and via Paypal? Any good tips? I've been through a bunch and some have elements that are OK but nothing with the overall functionality I need...

I know someone posted recently about this and was given the link: http://demo.wp-events-plugin.com…

Any others?
