The Week in Links
This weeks edition of The Week in Links is a small one, but features some great projects. An insight into developing a consistent branding for one of the most recognisable brands and some tips on starting a business. Finishing the edition is a look at the process behind a brilliant personal project. One I would love to do myself one day.
The Week In Links
This weeks edition has only four links, but they are packed with interest. There’s a short post to get that started that will of particular interest to those who run their own business, followed by a series of posts giving a few details into the behind the scenes of starting a new company (they make my favourite notebooks). Following my trend in recent weeks of looking into notebooks, there’s a review of the latest Field Notes colours edition, and then an in-depth article into the beginnings of the Apple Watch.
Sit back with a coffee and enjoy.

Geckoboard ›
Geckoboard is a Realtime Business Status Board. Basically like the Panic Status board but for your business and hosted for you.
I like the look of this so much I want to start a business just so I have a reason to use it.
