There’s one site that is guaranteed to be on at least one person’s monitor in the office — The FWA. With a daily dose of great design and development, we can launch into our work with renewed excitement.

Another great feature is the interview section. Our friend Tim Barber from Odopod was recently featured. And Rob Ford asked a bunch of us to participate in May. I’ve pulled out some choice quotes from each:

Tim
The biggest gap in the current landscape is with sites that are conceptually inventive and super high production value but that are also super easy to comprehend and navigate.

Tyson
The best way I’ve found to learn something in Flash or any other program is to have a goal in mind, or something specific you want to accomplish. Then you figure out the tools you need to accomplish that goal. Also, learn shortcuts, they will save you massive amounts of time.

Jamie
Great food can be appreciated by anyone. Think about that when you build a website.

Zander
I learn most techniques from opening other designers’ and developers’ files. So newbies…ask for people’s files.

Joshua
I started at Big Spaceship in 2002. I was the coder. The first day that we hired another coder to be on the team, I declared myself Minister of Technology.

Michael
I’m interested in doing more application design. We’ve barely scratched the surface of how even mundane tasks can be made fun through innovative interaction and quality experience.

And I feel a little shy about adding my own, but here goes:
Tina
Say what you want about Disney…but Walt had “experience design” figure out before anyone else.
