Stumbled upon a bunch of videos from the Future of Web Apps Expo in London. There's a ton of interesting stuff here: FOWA London Videos.


Noticed that there's a conference coming to New York in a few weeks, the Future of Web Design Conference - http://www.futureofwebdesign.com/2008/newyork/. This is probably going to be incredible. With all of the new styles of websites, and focus on user behavior, conversion optimization, eye tracking, uses of psychology (with colors, fonts, layouts) etc... I bet this show will be a blast.

Here are a few of my favorite websites based on revolutionary design:

1. http://jen.lu
This website totally blew my mind. It looks like an anime cartoon meets a operating system. Even with so much going on, the Flash is obviously optimized enough to load super fast. The creativity here is through the roof - check it out.

2. http://www.mint.com
You can't really talk about modern design and web applications without mentioning mint.com. Every color, border, gradient and image is spot on. On top of looking beautiful, their application is extremely useful. They added in Student and Car Loan integrations, so now it can track ALL of my liabilities.

Well, there's my top 2 I can think of - for more amazing designs check out: http://bestwebgallery.com and click around. There's some great stuff out there you might have missed.
