Because I create Web sites, I feel it’s my duty to periodically see what “award-winning” Web design looks like. So today I looked at a few of the Webby Award Nominations.
Mostly award-winning design looks expensive. I mean, gee Google Maps has a GooglePlex full of programmers on the task. Of course it’s cool.
Since that kind of money has no bearing on my world, I’m always more interested in the “personal” categories. However, the monotony of the 20th black background Flash with distressed fonts intro screen really gets me down. I wish this “wow I’m so cool” look would just go away. I mean it’s been years, people. It’s just NOT COOL anymore. It’s boring.
But in the personal category this year is one really cool site. A guy named Dave used it to propose to his girlfriend. It’s creative, romantic, cute, and funny:
