Best Designer of the Year!
I just learned that I won Best Designer of the Year and 9rules won Best Site of the Year over at Marie Cox's Artypapers.com! I've won other awards in the past, but being marked as the best designer from all of 2005 really takes the cake, I'm extremely touched and honored.
New Year
2005 was a big year for me, and I very much appreciate all the support that my readers and friends have given. This past year I graduated from college, took a full-time job, quit a full-time job, moved with my girlfriend to a new state, and am now doing really well with Business Logs and 9rules.
We've got some amazing things in store for 9rules this coming year, maybe even in the next week or two ;)
Happy holidays everybody.
Congratulations!

Congrats on the Designer of the Year, something I already knew yet this confirms. Oh, and I'll gladly accept the award for Best Site.

I guess they did not take Whitespace into consideration ;)
Congratulations man - this blog of yours and 9rules designs are really nice. Particularly this one, as it shows how simple design can live up with few graphical touches.
