The Inter web


I finally got round to installing Google Analytics yesterday. If you haven't installed it or seen it, then it's worth checking out.
As well as providing the statistics you need for your site, It also presents them in a more intuitive graphical way. We have the standard stats software on our site but Google Analytics gives a nice clear visual representation of where your users are and on which links have been clicked and how many times.

When the leading search engine provides are web statistic tool like this, it's worth taking note.
It seems Google can do no wrong.

While putting this together it got me thinking of the other useful sites and tools that i use on the internet.
So i thought i'd join the list brigade and compile my top sites and resources.
That's of course if you are interested!

In no particular order

1) Google - need i say more.

2) Wikipedia - Whenever you're stuck for that bit of knowledge.

3) Newstoday/ The Serif - Design forum/blogs which provide a daily link to great work and resources.

4) BBC - This is the news!

5) SXC - A great resource for free quality images.

6) IMDB - For when you can't remember that film or what that actor has been in.

7) Alluc - Films, Television galore.

8) Kuler - Adobe colour tool.

9) Flickr - A site to create an online archive of your digital photos and share your images.

10) Any site that has list of useful links and resources.
