Hourly Rate Calculator mentioned on Smashing Magazine
Exciting news! One of my favorite sites, Smashing Magazine, picked up on the hourly rate calculator and published it in the month’s “Web-Sites of the Month” list.
Encouraging news since the last “suggestion” I received from the suggestion form was to “erase it.”
I would love to email people who have un-insightful comments to make on the calculator, but they rarely leave their real email addresses. It’s usually something like you@arestupid.com.
Is someone pissing on these people’s heads or something? I’m always amazed at how comfortable people become with insulting others when hiding behind their computers.
I’ve had lots of great feedback on the tool though, and for that I’m grateful. My hope is to release another version with additional features and explanations as to how & what calculations are taking place.
I’m so glad no one is pissing on my head today - it’s a beautiful day!! ![]()

This is where I go on and on and on about ... whatever. My "design process" is my best guess on what I do all day long. My font crushes are documented for anyone who wants to call the police. Enjoy.
