Site: Football Filter

by Matt on 29 December 2009

footballfilter.com This is a great little aggregator of a site, pulling together a mass of football resources from around the web (with a slight English bias, which is nice!) into one filterable page.

Pros

Hat trick

The design is simple but elegant with clear use of a grid: a great example of practical type design on the web. Also the bank of podcasts you can listen to within the click of a play button is a nifty feature that makes you feel like some kind of media mogul.

The wide variety of sites linked to is good to see, even including a whole section on WAGs! And big respect for not needing a new login to be able to sign up.

Cons

Own goal

Being able to filter by time is a good idea but the timeline device used to do it isn’t very intuitive. Would be better if it was a big timeline across the screen, clearly marked by days or hours. Displaying photos is a nice touch but it is a bit fiddly to be able to link through to where they are hosted (Flickr) so you can get the originals.
