 well another week and weekend flew by im finally starting to work on my redesign realign and i hope that i can get it launched in not too long here is what i found interesting this week any element linking demo eric meyer created a demo of his proposed any element linking this could be an awesome addition to html 5 although who knows how long it will take to actually be implemented modal overlays beyond the dialog box modal overlays definitely have become an integral part of the web these days this is a nice discussion about good and bad uses firebug lite instead of only being able to use firebug in firefox you can use the lite version a bit of javascript to utilize firebug functionality in other browsers it was definitely finicky but its a big upgrade from other debugging tools silverback the much anticipated silverback finally launched im going to have to find the right time to use that 30 day trial this looks so awesome a small design study of big blogs blogs are obviously a huge part of the web smashing magazine takes the time to examine the 50 most popular technorati blogs to investigate design trends and more definitely a good read
