Given the number of sites I have, and number of online tools I use it can be difficult to stay abreast of everything I'm doing online. No more!
My latest Every 5 Weeks site released this week, aims to solve just this problem. You can now see Me In One -- all my web activity in one handy dandy web page, and RSS feed.
Me In One aggregates all and any RSS feeds you point it too, combining all your online activity for easy access. Sure you could add all those feeds into your favorite RSS reader, but what if you add a new feed, or change feeds, now you and all your friends have to update their subscriptions. With Me In One you manage the feed list, so after just one account update, everything is up-to-date.

Just wanted to drop a note to say thank you to all the people who linked to and visited Design By Grid.
I got picked up by a number of design galleries, and linked from blogs that I read daily.
This is by far and away the best launch for a personal website I've had. Just over 10K visitors in the first 3 days.
Most importantly I hope this indicates a desire from web designers and developers to learn more about designing with grids.

I've been trying to design for some time now with some small victories along the way, but mostly living in blah-dom. Coming across grid based techniques has really helped me make some leaps in my designs.
I thought it would be nice to share what I'd discovered on the topic with people, so another niche design site is born.
Following the same path as LightOnDark, which aimed to promote the use of dark background, light foreground sites, Design By Grid aims to promote is own design niche: The use of grid based techniques in web design.
The site contains a showcase, and links to articles, tutorials, and resource for people looking for inspiration or a little help in their grid based work.
Check it out and let me know what you think:
