Have there been any good looking regular websites released this year? A lot of best of lists tend to just be a list of portfolio and design studio websites.

What I wouldn't give to watch YouTube videos of some of these designers putting these sites together. Everything from how they get the background textures, to adding gradients, shadows, altering colors, everything. It would be amazing.

I'd probably pay to watch a 10 part series from an accomplished designer who goes start to finish designing some of these nice sites.

Is there a way to just filter all posts containing '2010' in the title?

I completely agree and would pay as well. I'm sure there are sites out there that fit this need, but the key is finding the accomplished designers out there willing to offer their best tips and tricks.

I prefer the Drawar best of roundups because at least they provide a few paragraphs of explanation for each screenshot explaining what makes it exceptional: http://www.drawar.com/posts/2010-best-designs-2nd-quarter

I'll start (based on what was passing through Forrst and HN) -

http://www.draftboardapp.com

http://www.aerofs.com

http://www.certtime.com

http://www.wuala.com (not 2010, but still good)

I really liked this one, for example.
