…not if it looks this great and provides hours of entertainment.

I’ve been meaning to write about my amazing experiences at The Future Of Web Design conference, so here’s my first snippet of fun industry related information I’d like to share with you:

One of the most memorable sites I saw was this: http://www.daytum.com
A home for collecting and communicating your data – arbitrary and completely useless data. I’m amazed at how many creative and interesting ways this useless data can be displayed and shared. Have a look for yourself and let me know what you think.

Not only do I love the useless data people share with the world (ie: http://www.daytum.com/thisisclaire), and how great that data can be displayed/sorted/shared, but I love how simple and clean this site is. It gets right to the point without cluttering the information with branding, ads, or intrusive visual design elements. Genius!
