Zach Inglis: Portfolio - Version 2. Version 2 is very little as I always relied on company portfolio’s until about a year ago when I started up the portfolio sub-domain.
I’m having one issue with absolutely positioned anchors, but apart from that my portfolio is looking spiffy.
Head on over to see it.
My interview over at McVille has been posted. You can find it labeled, Zach Inglis interview.
Thanks Marko and the team.

After watching the ‘Design Workflows at Work’ panel, I thought I would give an explanation of how I work. I previously showed the way I design, although that has evolved a lot since then. The following article covers all aspects of the way I work.
My desk sadly is situated in the corner of my living room which can cause some problems when I want to lock myself away and work — though that doesn’t matter as I usually work while everyone is sleeping anyway. I’d rather spend 10 hours a day doing it this way than 6 hours of hard silent monotonous work.
I am a persistent note-taker, some of my best ideas are forgotten unless I scribble it down in one of my countless notepads or save it as a Cell Message Draft. Consequently, I always have my notepad behind my keyboard with a pen when I’m working to insure I won’t lose any ideas.
Unlike most people I advocate being interrupted occasionally. I keep my IM and Mail open for a reason. Frequently I have my best ideas and inspiration when I am not trying to thinking about it. Talking to people helps get my ideas out and gives me bursts of rest, keeping me refreshed for longer.
I also have my “sticky task wall”. Rather than putting Post-Its around my screen, I stick it up on the wall and when I need to take a break from what I am doing, I’ll complete a few. Whether it’s buying something or a small task such as create a favicon for my site.
It was my granddad’s birthday today.
I only met him when I was a child but he has been a huge influence to me in my life. Someone who has helped drive me to work harder and achieve my goals. For this I eternally appreciate and will always remember him for.
He was a very smart man and helped shape life as it is today for everyone in the world.
For more information about him, there’s a page at The Royal Society archives here.
I’m sorry I didn’t get to know you, I’ll always wish that I had.
Like a bunch of Life Stickies™, I have a life todo list.
