Dinobot Illustration: Fantastic illustration from a depressingly young and talented former colleague, Heather Sheppard.
Kevin Levell: Top quality comic book artwork and illustration.
Newton's Cradle: A small sample of the fantastic Newton's Cradle cartoon strip, written and illustrated by my old mate Russ Cogman. If you don't laugh, then you are probably dead.
Advocate: One of Europe's top illustration agencies, who represent some of the best illustrators and artists (and me).

Reality Dreamship: Full media studio that produces some superb graphic design. They've done the web sites of some famous people too.
DBO Design Agency: A full feature design and advertising agency, based in a beautiful spot on the coast of Montenegro. Great design, and an enthusiastic and committed owner.

Native Systems Limited: My old school friend Dilip, who is a successful Apple Reseller and my main source of Apple goodies.
Phoenix Aikido and Fitness Club: A popular and well equipped Aikido Dojo and fitness club established by the late Tom Moss Sensei and his wife Barbara. Full disclosure: I maintain the website.
David McKeegan Ltd: Dave is a drinking buddy, Mac user, and successful writer of English Language Teaching materials.

Adobe: The industry leaders for graphics software. Photoshop and Illustrator are the applications I rely on day in and day out to produce my images. I found Illustrator opaque and hard to use at first, but now I love it and rely on it completely.
BBEdit: The premier text editor for Mac OS. A superb application that just keeps getting better. As well as a brilliant text editor, BBEdit supports dozens of programming and markup languages, syntax checking, validation, site management, the list is endless. If you like to hand roll your HTML, I can't recommend this application highly enough. Their technical support is exemplary too.
DragThing: Even with all the interface goodness that is OS X, DragThing is still the most indispensable application switcher. It is the first thing I install on any computer, or if I do a clean install. I am lost on any Mac that doesn't have it installed.
Yojimbo: Yojimbo, from the makers of BBEdit is a superb application for storing notes, passwords, serial numbers, in fact almost anything you can think of. Just drop an item into Yojimbo's database, and you have immediate tagging, spotlight searching and .Mac integration.
