How to Be Awesome at Work!

The best way to make work feel like not work is to do something you enjoy, and do it damn well. That’s why I’m happy to announce the newest Envato blog: WorkAwesome! As you might guess from the name, it’s a site for people who want to be awesome at work. After all, if you’re going to spend eight hours a day doing something, you may as well put some heart into it!

Over the coming months our crack editor Joel Falconer and his team of uber worker writers will be publishing articles on everything from How to Make an Effective To-do List to How to Prepare for a Layoff! We’ve got a brand new comic strip coming from the extremely talented NC Winters, and we’ll be opening up for contributions so that anybody and everybody can share their tips on how to be more awesome at work!

If you’re a fan of web design, you may be interested to know that I screen recorded the whole design process the day I put this layout together, and I’ve sped it up to 30 minutes and am going to be recording some commentary and posting it up here on Psdtuts+. Hopefully it’ll make for vaguely interesting viewing, though I do go off to quite a few design dead ends before finally getting something I’m happy with! In any case look out for that in the next couple of weeks!

In the meantime, enjoy the new WorkAwesome site, subscribe to the RSS feed and follow @workawesome on Twitter!

    Not to be a pain in the ass, but the layout is broken due to #page being too wide (Firefox 3.5, prolly other browsers too); changing width to 640px solves it.

      looks good though on wide screen resolutions but yeah you’re right maybe a little bit adjustment I think (to appreciate more on 1024×768 resolutions)

      Overall the site is simply awesome!

    The layout gets broken when you click through the top stories. Also some comment boxes are broken when the title is 2 lines (in IE8).

    Nice initiative though!
