On fridays now and then, I’ll be sharing several links of interest and usefulness. I hope you will enjoy!

And, if you have links related to the ones I’ll be suggesting, don’t hesitate to comment them, I’ll be glad to review them.

• Lifehack/Tool: Remember The Milk
  This is the nicest to-do list I tried! You can have several lists (i.e. work/personal), easily classify your tasks with importance (it is definitely user-friendly/ergonomic, plus, it has a cool interface).
• Inspiration: Web Form Design
  This article showcases fun/original/classy concepts and ideas for form design.

  Have you seen those cool and versatile pods for your cameras? I really like the Gorilla one!

  The title says it all ~ have your PNG working in that ol’bad Internet Explorer 6!
