This week we're pleased to be joined by the hosts of the Net Award nominated CTRL+CLICK CAST podcast (http://ctrlclickcast.com/), Emily Lewis and Lea Alcantara. We talk about CMS's and especially whether, despite its popularity, we should look beyond WordPress to other platforms. My ToolStar this week is World Community Grid (https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/). An application which had enabled over 650 000 people and 470 organisations to donate spare computer power to help make ground breaking scientific discoveries in cancer treatment, clean energy, tropical diseases, AIDS and many other fields.. This week's Jukebox track is: 'Murmuration' by GoGo Penguin, added to the growing Relative Paths Playlist (http://relativepaths.uk/playlist). Lea and Emily didn't add a track to the playlist, but they drew our attention to the fantastic game music remixes at Overclocked Remix. Lea chose our read of the week, 'The Principles of Performance by Design' by Eric W. Mobley, which discusses the importance of prioritising site performance. Lea also mentioned '15 Years Ago in ALA: Much Ado About 5K' by Jeffrey Zeldman, well worth a read (http://alistapart.com/blog/post/fifteen-years-ago-in-ala-much-ado-about-5k). The music we use for various intro bits, stings and outro is 'Vitreous Detachment' by Origamibiro, used with kind permission. If you like the show, please leave a review or comment wherever you like to listen to us. We'd particularly love an iTunes review. - Mark Vote for CTRL+CLICK CAST in the Net Awards best podcast of the year category (https://thenetawards.com/vote/podcast/ctrl-click-cast/)

Brighton-based developer Benjamin Hollway loves a burger in a brioche bun and joins me on Unfinished Business this week to talk about how young people feel excluded from some industry events and how conferences and meet-ups should cater for people who don’t want to or are too young to drink. Benjamin was shortlisted for ‘emerging talent of the year’ at the Net Awards and oh, did I mention that he’s only sixteen?

This week on Unfinished Business, Sean Johnson and I talk not only about Laura Nevo’s “Dear Visual Design” open letter but also how wrong the people who thought I’d criticise Laura are. While I disagree completely with Laura’s message, I appreciate her writing it, not least because it helps sum up everything that I think is wrong about how we talk about web design today. Sean’s not just along for the ride, he has plenty to say about user experience, the Net Awards and why he hates football. The berk. As always, we have two fabulous sponsors, Hover and Macrabbit’s Espresso. Get 10% off both when you use the offer code unfinished at the checkout.

On Unfinished Business this week, and with us both fresh from the Net Awards, Laura Kalbag and I talk about our experiences there. I explain why I don’t feel at home in the web design industry as it is today and how its conversations no longer reflect my interests in design. After last week’s ‘giant’ misunderstanding about speaker fees, we also talk about the responsibilities that speakers have to themselves, to an audience and to an event and the people who’ve organised it. It’s a lively discussion. We talk about swearing, why private agreements between speakers and conferences should remain confidential and why speakers should play their part in supporting an event, before, during and after it. Laura, I and everyone who makes Unfinished Business, wants to say an enormous “thank you” to everyone who voted for our show and put it in the final five top podcasts of 2014 at the Net Awards. I also want to thank our sponsors this week. They are GatherContent and Hammer For Mac. As we always say, please support Unfinished Business by supporting them.

On this week’s Unfinished Business I’m joined by not one, but two guests to keep me out of trouble, Laura Kalbag and marathon runner Rachel Andrew. We talk about the fallout from last week’s news that publisher Five Simple Steps has closed, what this means for other niche publishers and for the authors who write for them. We talk about how the abrupt announcement of the closure could’ve been handled better and the lessons we might learn to help us in the future. Finally, we break down how advances and royalties work differently between small and large publishers and the reasons why authors might choose a publisher over self-publishing their books. Finally, everyone involved in making Unfinished Business wants to say an enormous thank-you to all of you out there in podcast land who voted for us for Podcast Of The Year at The Net Awards. You helped us make the shortlist of the final five that’s full of brilliant podcasts and put a very broad smile on all our faces. Thank-you to our sponsors this week.

New regular Ashley Baxter joins me on this week’s packed Unfinished Business to talk about eating well and staying fit, my goal to lose 14lbs and why my competition with Paul Boag is spurring me on. We also talk about how happy I am that Stuff and Nonsense has been shortlisted for Agency Of The Year at the Net Awards. Last, but not least, there’s Ashley’s Scottish slang word of the week. I’m also over the moon to learn that Unfinished Business has been shortlisted for Podcast Of The Year. When you listen to the show, you’ll hear I obviously wasn’t expecting that. This week’s sponsors are the Business Of Web Design conference. Use the offer code unfinished to get 10% your ticket. (And here’s a secret code.

This week on ‘Net Awards Podcast Of The Year’ nominated Unfinished Business, Liz Elcoate, from some other podcast, joins me to talk about why it’s acceptable to admit when we’ve availability and to ask people for work. We talk more about having flexibility in our rates and why it’s reasonable to quote different rates to different people. We also touch on whether web designers should charge ‘rush rates’ and why working for free can be good for the soul. Speaking of the Net Awards, did I mention that Unfinished Business has been nominated for Podcast Of The Year at the Net Awards? No? If you’ve liked what you’ve heard over the last 55 episodes, please vote for us. After-all, this is the only podcast where you hear about the things that are really important. Apes (obviously,) soap, weeing in kettles and of course Purple Rain. This episode is sponsored by Perch and by Logical Elements.

Illustrator Josh Cleland is back on Unfinished Business this week to talk about his work on the new Stuff and Nonsense go, go, go, rillas header, the difficulties of designing our own branding and how we can make visits to our sites more memorable by improving the design of pages we often forget. Nominate Unfinished Business for the Net Awards 2014 One way you can say thanks for the time we take making our podcast every week is to nominate Unfinished Business for Podcast Of The Year at the Net Awards 2014. We’d love, love, love you if you did that. This episode is sponsored by the Device Lab from Vanamco.
