I was slicing a site, and implementing it into Wordpress. It’s going to be a good edition to <a href="//trevor-davis.com/work/">my portfolio</a> when it’s done. So, enough of the small talk, this is what I found interesting this week:</p>

<ul><li><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2008/03/03/microsoft-s-interoperability-principles-and-ie8.aspx">Microsoft’s Interoperability Principles and IE8</a>
<p>We awoke on Monday morning to very interesting news:</p>
<blockquote><p>We’ve decided that IE8 will, by default, interpret web content in the most standards compliant way it can. This decision is a change from what we’ve posted previously.</p></blockquote>

<li><a href="http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2008/03/04/creating-a-successful-online-portfolio/">Creating A Successful Online Portfolio</a>
<p>Great article discussing the common mistakes in online portfolios and 12 Principles of Effective Portfolio Design.</p>

<li><a href="http://cameronmoll.com/archives/2008/03/extensible_css_interface_css_selectors_jquery/">Extensible CSS Interface II: CSS Selectors &amp; jQuery</a>
<p>The second article in the four-part series, “The Highly Extensible CSS Interface”. This one touches on some <a href="//trevor-davis.com/blog/tutorial/ajax-forms-with-jquery/">jQuery</a> and <a href="//trevor-davis.com/blog/tutorial/css-attribute-selectors-explained/">attribute selectors</a>.</p>

</ul><ul><li><a href="http://alistapart.com/issues/254">A List Apart: Issue 254</a>
<p>Two great articles on design: <a href="http://alistapart.com/articles/oncreativity">On Creativity</a> and <a href="http://alistapart.com/articles/designisinthedetails">Design is in the Details</a>. I found both articles to be really interesting, especially since design is the area that I am trying to improve the most in.</p>

<p>That’s right everyone, <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/ie/ie8/getitnow.mspx">IE8 Beta 1 is available for download</a>. Roger gives a nice round-up of it’s improvements and it’s shortcomings (so far).</p>

<li><a href="http://www.thinkvitamin.com/features/css/coding-for-the-mobile-web">Coding for the mobile web</a>
<p>Chris Mills from Opera discusses the do’s and don’ts of coding for the mobile web. I still think that it’s not really going to explode until we see more interfaces like the iPhone, and until cell phone carriers reduce the price of their unlimited data plans. But still, some good tips for the time being.</p>

<p>My co-worker flagged this to me. Four day work weeks? Freedom to buy a book or software whenever? That sounds amazing.</p>

</ul><p>Oh and in other news, my brand spanking new 15" MacBook Pro should be arriving Monday. The anticipation is killing me. I didn’t know they ship from China!</p>";s:13:"numberOfLikes";N;s:10:"bodyBlocks";a:0:{}}}}}i:1;O:25:"yii\caching\TagDependency":3:{s:4:"tags";a:4:{i:0;s:7:"element";i:1;s:29:"element::craft\elements\Entry";i:2;s:40:"element::craft\elements\Entry::section:4";i:3;s:7:"graphql";}s:4:"data";a:4:{s:40:"CraftCMSce35088bdfe0816226cd17fd051a4803";s:21:"0.46162700 1707493692";s:40:"CraftCMS2743a789e8993267a348eee1ee7e4450";s:21:"0.34758900 1706282441";s:40:"CraftCMS2ac34726f299f7e18e449d8e536c67f8";s:21:"0.22771600 1711953912";s:40:"CraftCMS3817d4a648fcfac939af46605323feb0";s:21:"0.44505500 1681499442";}s:8:"reusable";b:0;}}
