Marc and David discuss their personal experiences in trying to create a personal brand.
Along the way they also mention some tips for those who are also on a mission.
Develop your Character
We decided to get all motivational today and talk about developing your character and working on supposed ‘weaknesses’.
We started as the most introverted people you knew but with a bit of effort have become a lot more out going. You can do it too, it just takes effort.
10 Benefits of Setting Deadlines
Marc and I used to have a knack for not getting things done. We would get to 90% of creating an app and then for some reason (client work etc.) we would stop and barely look back.
In fact, we would look back…. in regret. The famous ‘what if’.
Bring in the Laymans
Designing a web application is something that most of you who read our blog will be familiar with, whether it be through designing an interface or coding the back-end, or both. And because of that you can relate to how difficult it is to get your site bug-free and ready for public release. I know that some companies like to bring in other web people to test their sites, and although it’s better than doing it yourself, you can’t replace the real thing – the end user.
Web Design Trend #1
Hi Everyone, it is our first post of many for 2009. We have decided to include this video on We Are not Freelancers because we believe it applies to this sites content 100%.
Taken from From the Couch:
“We believe that 2009 will bring in a whole bunch of new and creative layouts. One of the most under used of these layouts comes from inspiration gained by looking at magazines.
Blog layouts have stagnated, it is time to push on and magazine inspired sites will soon be one of those ways.
Brace yourself, things are about to become awesome.”
