Louis Gubitosi works for Liz Claiborne, Inc designing and developing websites. When he’s not at work, he stays updated with design trends using one of his personal projects and favorite resources… The Web Blend (v2.0 coming soon!).
Louis also has a freelance company called Interactive Blend and in his spare time keeps his coding skills sharp by challenging himself with new monthly personal projects. Want to know more about Louis Gubitosi? Check out his personal site.
1) iMac and MacBook Pro
Every designer must own a Mac, new or old. Along with a Mac you’ll need a more recent version of Adobe Creative Suite (I just upgraded to CS4). Since I love to spread and receive knowledge through twitter, another recommended tool is TweetDeck.
2) iPhone 3Gs with Apps
Some of my apps that I use on a daily basis are TweetDeck for tweeting, to check my RSS, Twitter stats and Page Ranking. WordPress to add/edit posts and approve comments when I don’t have access to a computer. Last but not least, Analytics to review website statistics.
3) WordPress
This publishing platform needs no explanation except for that I use it as mush as possible.
4) Gmail
This is a great tool for not only checking mail, but also for organizing events and phone numbers, syncing it with your iPhone, Instant messaging, G-Messenging, tweeting…. The list goes on, just check out Google Labs.
5) Intuit QuickBooks 2009 for Mac
This is a great tool if you don’t feel like hiring an accountant to do all your dirty work. It’s very user friendly and the Mac version makes it a breeze to record transactions for all of the small business’s out there.
