It’s great to see coverage of MyBuilder and Kublax in the FT today (6th August 2008).
I’ve got the pleasure of working with MyBuilder at the moment and have recently pitched for doing some design work for Kublax. Having seen what Kublax can do (it’s just gone in to Alpha) I can happily say that it’s one of the first websites that I’ve seen that I actually thought “you know what, that could be really useful”.

Anyway, what a first year it’s been. It’s been great, so thanks to all my fab clients and my amazing grilfriend for her support.
Roll on year 2! Let’s see what happens…
