UI Designer’s Paradise

Not a particularly long post; but I thought I’d share what I find to be one of the best places on the internet to get some UI and interaction design tips / advice from: Wowhead

There are very few sites on the internet that are as awesome and thorough as this place. To top it all off, not only is this one of the most easily understood / accessible sites but it’s also pleasing to the eye.

Not to mention, since I play a lot of World of Warcraft, it’s such a relief to have something as awesome as this as one of your resources.

World of Video

VHS battles the arrival of the DVD!! There’s a scene at around 3:50-55 that completely cracked me up! It’s definitely worth a watch. (Don’t like Vimeo very much, but I suppose it’s worth putting up with for this video.)
