Ryan & Tina Essmaker design and curate The Great Discontent, a journal focusing on creativity, risk, and inspirational artists. The site is a wonderful example of cutting edge responsive webdesign. The fact that they take the time to individually art direct each individual article makes me love it even more. Beautifully presented and very well done.

The latest iteration of Virb's visual design is downright fantastic. And I'm actually surprised, because this is — as far as I know – the first design process at Virb that hasn't been led by Ryan Sims. The Virb team has once again done an amazing job that positions Virb as the most droolworthy CMS in this crowded field.

I love the visual profile of Friends of The Web. The color palette reminds me of data centric services and tools like Google. They come across as an agency it'd be fun to work with. The Project Inquiry/General Contact option is also a great touch on the Contact page.

What a thoroughly high quality site this is. The design is inviting and friendly in both language and visual design. To me, it comes across as a great service that hopefully attracts more than a few non-profits. Great job by Dodd, Marshall and Sean!

It's no surprise that when legendary web designer Bryan Veloso is getting married to his beautiful fiancé Jennifer Verduzco, his wedding website is designed with great care. As always with Bryan's work, the colors, textures, typography and graphics are beautifully crafted down to the very last detail. Also, I think the the "Honeyfund" is superb. Congrats!

The latest redesign of EA's historically slow and "chunky" site is a huge success. They have managed to make it feel elegant and responsive without compromise. The great use of whitespace and a fast stack are probably the main contributors to this. If I was John Riccitiello I would be very happy with how this site turned out.

Parliament is a creative company that oozes of good taste and great talent for design. This is very obvious throughout their website, their entire portfolio, as well as their beautiful industrial headquarters.

iPhone app teaser websites come a dime a dozen. iPhone app teaser websites of this calibre however are much, much harder to come by. Scrolling this site is so enjoyable that I think it's right to compare it to the spectacular and very successful Ben the Bodyguard site. Seldom has a small project like developing a teaser site been turned into such a wonderful result. Great work by Image Mechanics.

Nokia rarely does anything that catches my eye. But with the launch of the MeeGo/Qt powered N9 I have realized that the Finnish company is actually able to "get" some of what's wrong with their usual lineup of phones. In fact, what I found most impressive with the launch was the very well done UX Guidelines site. This looks to be a great tool for UX designers looking to build apps for the N9. Well done, Nokia.

Push Pop Press is a new digital publishing platform that's attempting to redefine the way we publish and experience books. Quite a bold ambition for a small startup. Judging by their first publication however — Al Gore's "Our Choice" — I think they've built the best platform of its kind to date. Never has an interactive book felt this intuitive, fun and user friendly. UI Designer Mike Matas explained the platform in a little more detail in a recent TED talk. Lest not forget that they've done a damn fine job with the website as well.
