Woot Website Review

I’m not sure if this website is the same one I’ve seen 1-2 years back so if you do know of any other that uses the same business model, do update us on it. Getting down to a woot! review now, it’s a simple and straight to the point website offering a single item for sale everyday and once the day is up, the product will be taken down.

Yeah, I know it sounds something familiar that I too have heard before either in the past Computimes (NST: Tech&U now) or The Star: InTech. woot! has definetely come a long way since I last visited them.

Digitalmash Website Review

It’s been awhile since I’ve done one of these so time to get the old gears a cranking. Digitalmash is the portfolio of a fine Australian based designer; Rob. The website complies to website standards and  though it uses Flash, you know I’ve no complaints to the ones that entertain and at least take advantage of Flash.

The website follows a very monochromatic tone with strong black and grey hues. So if you’re looking for something cheerful to brighten you up, I suggest jumping right to Rob’s portfolio.
