My way, refined over about 10 years.
Feeds: 2 for a slap up lunch
Needs: one tin of chopped Italian tomatoes, one tin of anchovy fillets, a handful of dry black olives, one medium onion, 3-4 cloves of garlic, a few fresh basil leaves, small handful of salted capers washed and dried, 2-3 dried red chillis, […]

New site from one of my favourite shops. Nicely done, and they’ve resisted the temptation to “do a web 2.0″ on it and add all sorts of stuff nobody needs.
We’re in the throws of a re-design of pokelondon.com right now, and there’s some subtle stuff we could steal learn from it I reckon …

Update: I completely missed the It’s a nice day for a ‘White Christmas’ gag. Until now.
Long tail-vertising

The Smart TV concept turns the Sky Plus box into a local ad server, using part of the hard drive to store advertiser content, that then fills the programmed ad […]
Sneaky-peak of Poke’s new offices in the Biscuit Building - the project that’s been keeping me busy (and awake at night increasingly) since January, and more than likely the reason my friends haven’t seen of heard from me in months.
The coloured components i’m particualry pleased with - they’re the cable tray details that normally look […]
