Today is the launch of a website I’ve been working on for the NHS Champions Awards 2008. I project managed the development of the site, working with my associate Mats Lofgren on design and production.

The awards are being run by The King’s Fund in association with the Evening Standard and NHS London. They’re designed to recognise individuals who have gone the extra mile to provide exceptional care in the last two years.

So, if you live in London and know someone who works in the NHS who deserves special recognition for the work they do, then nominate them now!

Daily Color Scheme is a neat website that provides suggestions for website colour schemes, ready to download and import into your design software. My favourite is Veerle’s Topp.

The site says that it’s still in beta, but since no new schemes have been added since 2006, it looks like development has stalled! The site’s archive of colour schemes isn’t large, but it’s enough to give you some inspiration or help you make up your mind about the colours you like and dislike.

If you’re looking for more resources on colour for website designs, then check out this e-consultancy article on choosing colours for website designs, which is where I came across Daily Color Scheme.

I’ve tried out various Facebook applications over the last few weeks, but until today I hadn’t yet found one that’s impressed me enough to stick with it and keep it on my Facebook profile. The first one I think I’ll stick with is Friend Wheel - a clever way of visualising your social network on Facebook.

I came across Friend Wheel via cybersoc.com - check out Robin Hamman’s Friend Wheel here.
