One Week of Design oneweekofdesign.com
true to its name, this streamlined news feed aggregates blog and webzine posts from over the previous seven days. once posts are a week old, they disappear from the site—a heavenly proposition for anyone who gets overwhelmed by overabundant content. (or by the internet’s fathomlessness, whereby “news” exists for all posterity.) the site, an offshoot of Montréal­ based architecture/design news wire v2com.biz, refreshes every 15 minutes to showcase a portfolio of avant­garde buildings, innovative products, and other novelties. posts are culled from the usual players (core77, Dezeen, coolhunting, Designboom) as well as lesser­known titles, like Freshome and Karmatrendz, that are worth exploring in their own right. it’s one­stop shopping.

Glass House Conversations glasshouseconversations.org
this thought­provoking Web site is like a round­ table discussion enacted in cyberspace. Launched in 2010, it’s run by philip Johnson’s Glass House foundation. the gist: every two weeks, a different moderator posts a debate­sparking question. example: is ego a critical component of success in today’s design world? users share comments over the course of two weeks, and once the discus­ sion is closed, it remains archived on­site. Moderators have included artist Mary ellen carroll, colorist Donald Kaufman, and design critic Alice rawsthorn, and many of the commenters are similarly high­profile. A fascinating read.

Design Tech Tonics designtechtonics.biz
this site is the brainchild of bay Area interior designer beryn Hammil, who moonlights as a tech writer. in her blog, she demystifies software, apps, and gadgets in a lucid, jargon­free style without dumbing down topics or sacrificing depth. Hammil is not prolific—she posts just a few times each month—but she frequently updates old entries with new intel, so posts become encyclo­ pedic resources. topics range from industry­ specific (AutocAD versus Google sketchup, how to watermark your online portfolio images, a Qr­ code primer for interior designers) to those that are universally helpful, such as kid­proofing your ipad. the downer: For a designer, she has a rather blah graphic style, and the archives could be more navigable.
