Last fall, I was one of the judges for How Magazine’s Design Competition. The issue with the winners is now on stands. I tried to inject a little more interaction design perspective into the competition, so that it wasn’t only focused on the shiny-shiny. (Decide for yourself how successful that was…)

My judge’s pick was a really fun site for a Canadian animated TV Show that I’ve never seen: zimmertwins.com. I really enjoyed the Make a Movie application, which was one of the best uses of Flash I’ve seen in a long time. Fiona really enjoyed it too, and since she is more of the target audience than I am, I thought it was a real success.
