BTM July 2012 89 websites Stereomood.com Not all of us know the name of the music genre we’re in the mood for. I, for one, always make names up. This free ‘emotional’ internet radio station is a blessing. It knows the kind of music I need when I’ve just woken up or when I’m feeling gangsta. Shelterness.com Are you one of those people who are forever redecorating? Here’s a website that’ll help you stick to the habit without going broke. If you’re into DIY ideas, you’ll be impressed. They’ve got the simplest solutions to everyday housekeeping problems. Designyoutrust.com RATING: WHAT IS IT? Founded in 2007 by Dmitry Utkin, Design You Trust is an hourly-updated collective design blog and community. This is where you go to be flooded with all kinds of new design trends, news and events. Here, you can find great design portfolios, young blood in the field, fascinating articles and mesmerising photographs. Whether it is fashion, creative advertisements, architectural inspiration or even video design that you’re looking for, they’ve got it all under this roof. THE GOOD: Anyone working in a creative field of work should know that the biggest limitation one can have is the lack of research. Although it is believed there is nothing new under the sun, there are always new ways to do the same thing. This website virtually handpicks unique stuff from anywhere around the globe opening your eyes to exciting styles, places and techniques. THE BAD: For those without a niche, this can work both ways. You might be lucky enough to stumble upon something that you believe is your cup of tea. On the other hand, you might find them all so interesting that you’d like to try your hand at them all, leaving you swirling in a whirlpool of equally brilliant ideas. It isn’t too much of a negative, but it isn’t too helpful either. WEBSITE OF THE MONTH VERDICT: We’re hooked and can never have enough of it.
