Here’s another website that really sucks. It’s completely unusable. Can you figure out what they sell? Or, like me, did you run away screaming first? Enter at your own risk: Crumpler USA.
(And unfortunately this site was designed by fellow Aussies, and their own site is pretty bad, too. I hate naming names, but these are classic examples of what NOT to do with your own website.
You may as well flush your business down the toilet…

To avoid looking like I’ve abandoned posting on Web Design Watchdog, I’m letting you know that I’m moving back interstate after being on the road for 6 months. I don’t know how long it will take me to find a new home and settle in, but it will definitely be less than a month and hopefully no more than two weeks.
Until the dust settles and I start posting again, please subscribe to this blog so that you’ll find out immediately when I’m back. You can also add me as a Facebook friend, and watch me on Twitter (see the sidebar).
I’m hoping I’ll have a chance to schedule some future-dated posts to keep things alive here.
Please leave comments on this post about questions you’d like me to answer or topics you’re interested in.

When I get my eZine up and running, I’ll be publishing it using ‘WordBurner’. I’ve always planned to use WordPress and Feedburner to manage my eZine, but wasn’t sure exactly how to do it. Luckily I happened upon a tutorial from Nettuts that explains how it’s done:

Negative headlines arouse curiosity
Here’s a great article about writing compelling headlines…
It’s the reason people love NASCAR and read National Enquirer.
We don’t want to admit it. We’re not supposed to feel that way. But secretly buried, deep down inside, we all want a front row seat to the wipe out of the season.

Did you know that you can post to your WP blog using an iPhone/iPod Touch? I’m doing exactly that using the WordPress app right now. Just need to set up my Press This bookmarklet in Safari and see if that works.

404 Error page of Center'd!
Here are 60 Really Cool and Creative Error 404 Pages.
Just remember that your error page should be designed primarily to help your visitors get back on track as quickly as possible. Secondarily, being funny helps to take the sting of frustration out of getting lost on your site. Better to be helpful and not-so-funny than to just be amusing and not helpful.

Darren Rowse of ProBlogger has written a great post about batch processing his blogging-related tasks. Doing similar tasks in batches is a great time-saving (and sanity-saving) technique for most activities in life, not just blogging. Darren goes into detail about how he does it, and it’s well worth a read.
