philgyford : Bristol - Real Time Information - Real-time information of buses' departure from bus stops, tracking buses fitted with GPS. Not the most beautifully implemented thing in the world but it looks like it works (eg, try postcode "BS1 5TR"). (via City of Sound)

plasticbag : Dan Hill's written his thoughts on the design process and success of the Monocle website - In the end, I think I'm most fascinated by this piece because of all the things I wouldn't have done and the decisions I don't really understand. Gripping combination of mental exfoliant and moisturiser.
Greg Storey : "I thought I'd pause to reflect on some of the design and strategy choices I made with Monocle" - Must read for anyone in the online magazine business.
Khoi Vinh : Dan Hill: Designing Monocle
philgyford : Cityofsound: Monocle: design notes - Dan Hill's fantastic description of the design decisions that went into the Monocle website. Lovely to see a site that manages to be distinctive but still classy.
