I know, I so didn't have to make the title a list, but apparently, I've been writing a more-than-fair bit outside of torley.com, and here's a compilation of what I've done in a little more than the last half year. I've had the honor, privilege, and functional pleasure (YEAHHHH!) to contribute to some of the best team blogs in the world.
I put this together to make it easier to find valuable, related resources for your benefit. After all, I wrote this stuff because it helped me, and I hope they'll help you too. I may update this periodically, but for now, ENJOY!

Torley, you never stop to impress me. Smashing Magazine! WOW!
Congratulations
PS. Can you recommend a good store to buy some time?
@Ayumi: Thanx! All these ideas just keep coming up, I'll become mad (in both the angry and crazy senses) if I bottle them up for too long. Store? What do you have in mind? ;D
Hehe, it was a joke about the store (maybe it doesn't translate well from my language). You just do so many creative and inspiring things, that it seems almost impossible to do that within 24 hours (as if you had more time)
I always wished my day and night would last 48 hours
Wouldn't that be cool if you could actually buy time to do more things?
It would be cool.
I think the closest we've come is paying (or bartering) other people to do boring work for you, saving you time to do more creative stuff.
