About

Hi, my name's Mark. I'm a web designer and developer based in Devon, England.

This site is an attempt to collate all the cool things I find or have sent to me daily. It's about the things I enjoy, and ideas that make an impression on me.

It's an editing process, and intended to produce something that I (and others) can use both as a reference, and as an inspirational jumping-off point.

If you create (or find) something that you think would fit well with the other works showcased on this site, please let me know at design@eclectica.co.uk or message me on Twitter at @eclecticablog.

I will always try to credit original sources whereever I can, but quite a few of the items I post are from the huge archive of bookmarks I've built up over the years, so in these cases I won't be able to remember them, sorry!

This site has a full-content RSS feed; to subscribe, just point your reader at:

You can also follow Eclectica on Twitter, where I post quite a few things that I don't have time to do a full post about; there is an Eclectica fan page on Facebook too.

I also maintain a few other personal web sites:

• My main home page is at MarkAshleyBell.com
• Essentially Octopus, where I put pieces of writing and posts that don't belong anywhere else
• Wombat Football, a small creative writing/quotes blog
• Odd Me Up, an archive of funny images

Please check them out!
