24 Ways 2008

24 Ways provides a fantastic set of daily tutorials through the advent season each year. In my opinion, 2008 was undoubtedly the best year so far. A fascinating collection of design professionals contribute to the site, and there's a host of new techniques and tips to learn. A few favorite articles include Malarkey's input on design contracts and Jon Hicks on user styling. It's a shame the site can't last all year, but the techniques learned could well last that long.
