The beauty of the internet

This blog is about “the creative side of web design”. Not just about tips and techniques or rants against tables. We also talk about the organic, the subjective, the intrigiuing and the unexpected. Which brings me to Whiskerino.

The beauty of the internet is that it gives a voice and a face to every passion, every hobby, every weird aspect human endeavor. Like guys (I think they’re all guys…) who all committed to growing beards from November of last year, to February of this. A little weird, yeah, but also fun, and nice looking. I like the Edwardian graphics and typography, but I really like the sense of community that developed: a couple hundred people from all over took pictures, encouraged one another and became friends. That’s pretty cool.Maybe I’m biased, because I like growing a beard as much as the next guy (and maybe a little more), but this site makes me smile every time.
