Bowman to Google

We're just back from New York so we might be a bit late with this bit of news that's pretty friggin' great for Google. They've managed to snag Douglas Bowman as their "Visual Design Lead".

Bowman is one of those great designers who knows how to combine great design with business needs, and in the end turn out standards compliant work that sets the pace for hundreds of aspiring designers (and some copy-cats too).

Bowman also designed the template that this blog has been using for quite some time. Unfortunately we've taken lots of liberties with the code. Sorry. More on the story from the man himself.
