Well again, I am slow getting a blog post written. I have 4 drafts saved right now! I spent last weekend at An Event Apart Chicago, and I really enjoyed myself. So, here are some links from the past 2 weeks:
Wow, I never knew this existed. Although if a user does not have a CSS capable browser, you better make sure the numbers are not essential to the content.
I love the backup software example.
Jonathan Snook shows how some simple jQuery can add some interesting hover effects.
A discussion about creating a user-centric site. In the future, this definitely seems like it is going to be the direction that a lot of websites are going to go in.
A new Labs feature, Mail Goggles, will try to prevent you from sending those late night drunk emails. It asks you to solve math problems when sending emails late at night on the weekends.
While I’m not a big design nerd, I found this recap of Cabel’s wedding and all of the design he did for it really interesting. I definitely want a photo booth at my wedding!
Dave Shea starts a good discussion about whether browsers using page zoom will change the way that we slice websites. I actually have begun sizing my text absolutely and “soft-serving” relative units to IE6.
I’m definitely a perfectionist, not a purist.
I love that Aaron Gustafson compares the web to an M&M in his article entitled Understanding Progressive Enhancement. Zeldman gets sentimental and talks about A List Apart after Ten Years.
