I recently came across this article online about web designing. It is easily the most useful article on the subject I have read in a long time. 35 top Web Designers were asked a set of 5 common questions. It is amazing how many of them think alike on so many different topics.

The article mentions a book called “Don’t make me think” by Steve Krug. I gave the book a try and I was surprised to see how so many website make the same basic mistakes and how easily those mistakes can be corrected. An absolute must read for designers.

The Shadow Lines

Amitav Ghosh has been much in the news these days for his new novel “Sea of Poppies” and while I haven’t read that yet, I think one of his best works is “The Shadow Lines” . His writing style is quite like Somerset Maugham and The Shadow Line is a novel that will make you look inwards and backwards into your past at every step of the way.Great if a bit slow read. You can read an  in depth  review here.
