Well today I’m working on the layout for Halifax-Restaurants.com, and that means a bunch of messing around with PhotoShop. The book that’s getting a lot of use is The Photoshop Anthology from SitePoint, this is a book aimed at web developers that need to figure out how to do something specific quickly- case in point- how to blend two images together (p. 46). Good stuff.
Well with SimcoeDining.com stuck in alpha/beta for a while I started thinking about what I’d like to do next time around. Well the logical thing to do was look at what I liked about SimcoeDining.com and other sites (such as the recently completed Dine.TO 2 release as well as new sites like restomontreal.ca and ibegin.com).
Well the result will be the 2nd (or 3/4 if you count Dine.TO and EdmontonDining.com) restaurant guide- Halifax-Restaurants.com this time for the “restaurants, bars and clubs in Halifax, Nova Scotia and surrounding communities”
The aim of this will be to build a more sophisticated version of SimcoeDining and then move the technology back to it once done.
It’s late, so here’s a picture of a gas station we stopped at somewhere between Summerhill and Halifax last Sunday. Forget PetroCan, Exxon or whatever else- out here it’s pretty much Irving on every gas station.
Friday has come and gone … next stop vacation. One week on the East Coast, should be fun.
