“We started in 2006 with a simple idea – make awesome websites”. I think Envato is living up to their ideals. Every single one of their sites is well designed and usually has great content. I had no idea a single company made Tuts+ (a series of websites which does tutorials and how-tos for things like Photoshop, Illustrator, 3d design, Flash, etc) and Freelance Switch (a site about being a freelancer).
What makes me point them out today is that I came across AppStorm.net which is comprised for 3 sites focusing on web, iphone, and mac apps. Again, the content on each site is top notch. I just spent the last hour reading reviews for all sorts of slick looking apps that I’ve never even heard of.
It’s great to see a company doing such a wide variety of content based sites (and even charging for their premium content on Tuts+). I highly recommend you check them out (if you’re a nerd or a designer).
