So far, this is the best redesign of 2009! (It was recently launched, right?) I’m so impressed with the way the site hangs together – it’s thought through and works extremely well. Colors, typography and the layout is beautiful. Job well done!

Handshakes from Norway!

Hi guys!

Some great goals for 2009 there! I find it hard to learn new things in between development so I try to learn them during a project.

Don’t know jQuery? Then make a point to use it on a site.

Our goals are to maintain our customer base and also add iPhone (and web browser) skills to our repertoire.

PS. Is the ‘Show Recent Work’ jQuery your own creation? I’m really digging the simplicity!

Nice work on publishing your goals for 2009. Not many agencies or design firms even have goals, let alone publish them for the entire world to see. Keep up the good work.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for stopping by! I read your post and it looks like you were able to accomplish a lot in 2008. Sorry to hear about the theft you experienced though, hopefully that’s all sorted out now. Here’s to a wonderful (and safe) 2009!

Good plans, sounds similar to what we are doing this side of the pond – good luck with 2009 and maybe see you are SxSw.

Thanks for the compliments, Lea!

Brooke, you of all people should have a place where you can blog and post your photos! I’m a big fan of your photography and I’d love to get some more detailed information about what went into the photos. If you need help implementing a blog, you know who to call!

Congrats on the new goals and vision for 2009! Haha, my goal is to return to “personal blogging” that I used to do for years. But more of a photo blog. I miss that creative outlet… Haha, I might need some help turning a design into functioning blog!

What a gorgeous site. I love how tight the grid is and all the color choices throughout. Like Justin, it’s nice to read through other people’s 2009 goals to remind them to review their own.

Thanks Justin, we’re glad you enjoyed the article. It never hurts to gather your thoughts and list your goals. And by posting them somewhere, there’s a sense of commitment and responsibility about following through and measuring your success.

Thanks again for the comment!
