The Swish Life

Change.org looks an awful lot like Banthat with a twist (it appears to be more about environmental and political change). Interesting. I like the concept of banning things better. It’s easier to do, and requires less work.

eHow has redesigned and I decided I like the new look. Check out the massive buttons at the top of the page layout. They’re huge. But probably really effective at pointing people to the actionable sections of the web site.

Once again, excellent photography and a super interesting site layout (but not complex) wins. Check out the Bays English Muffins site.

I really like the design for the Gist site. They’ve done a good job integrating video onto the home page and not taking the focus away from the product.

I like the design for Hitchsters.com, it’s got a neat set of illustrations, and few words. The service is currently in beta in New York, which is frankly where it should be in beta. I don’t know anybody that rides the taxi regularly.
