Gorgeous pics…and I love their bikes.

this is the “click-to-expand” thing I was looking for.

this is the one I actually ended up using, modified to be not a menu. 🙂(tags: css javascripty)

“creating favicons has never been easier” — no kidding! very clever. (via alex king)

not that I have any particular need for this now, but it could come in handy someday.(tags: php)

“It’s hard to tell the family I can’t spend time with them because I need to create free content on the Internet that will lower our income.” 🙁 His stuff is genuinely weird, funny, and thought-provoking.(tags: funny blogosphere)

“So why, then — in L.A., anyway — does he remain a sacred cow?” smackdown on Bukowski. Ra & Franz both loved his stuff, but I never really cared for it or for that whole drunk surly guy poet thing.(tags: writing californication)

heh. I’m sure Elizabeth is the same way. (Also, this is true for common names of any ethnicity. Thao may have stuff online, but I’d never have found it.)

“If we heal somebody medically, but we break them financially, have we really done what is in the best interest of the patient?”

this may be what I’m looking for to get those old post w/out handwritten excerpts straightened out.

“So what’s the cleanest, neatest way to only [do what you want] if the excerpt has any content, and skip it if it is empty?” yeah, what they said. only…that post doesn’t have a response. 🙁

ooooh, fun.

entertaining (if not very useful) bit of flash — once the flash loads, click on the blue cup, upper right corner. (warning: sound)

Ooooh, potential hours of fun. Right now, the main pic on the page is the spooky mirrored state HR building downtown. I don’t know how many times I’ve checked my hair, etc. in that window.

“it will never get interesting until the mobile network operators relax their death-grip” — I’m just going to use that quote everywhere now, because that’s the key issue w/mobile everything. and I love the word “death-grip.”

a clever hoax. do go ahead & read the “release notes.”

a very clever idea. at Pierce, I copy/pasted the main page text into Word for editing, for much the same reason. (excluding navigation, etc.) another reason to get my full-text feeds working again.

Ralph gets all artsy-craftsy. I’m quite impressed by the results. Maybe someday my front room will be in a shape where I can do something like that….

Yes. Exactly. All bow to the Mighty Z. 😉 Seriously? This fires me up in the same way that the stylesheets series in ALA did back in the day.(tags: web_dev philosophizing)

I’ve got something that (mostly) works at work, but home is an entirely different story.

“exceptions are more common than the rule” — Andrea hits the nail on the head. This, btw, is often the downfall of CMS.

Not that this problem has been a big deal for me, but it’s good to know.

there’s a chance this could be useful.

this, too. or at least I could improve what I’ve already got.
-
I’m very tempted to buy these for this year’s cards, although I like making my own.

as far as I can tell, the main issue is speed with page loading. might need to look into this at some point.

I should probably send this to Rick and/or Emmett @ OlyBlog.

“So I had this idea… what if I made Jeremy Keith’s process work from wireframe to deployment?” holy moses. wow. hm. I may be taking advantage of these tools in the very near future, fingers crossed.

well, he’s not the one presenting it, but that’s where I found out. a very nice little tribute/awareness bit. I’ll have to wear the blue knit elf-hat.

on being a “design buddy.” Sometimes design is really hard work for me; it doesn’t come as naturally as writing, and doesn’t have the yes/no feedback of programming. I’ve appreciated a number of “design buddies” over the years.

I have a kooky work idea that probably won’t go anywhere. otherwise, this is just to remind me that it’s absurdly expensive and not worth the effort. (gddm cell carriers.)(tags: sms creditunion)

ah, nostalgia. and yes, the first death knell of the web-safe palette was rung in Sept. 2000, 7 years ago.

mobile web stuff just makes me crazy, honestly.

Yes.

September to January is just one blur of birthdays & holidays. It’s damn hard work, actually, keeping my cool. (This morning I just realized that I’d forgotten my niece’s 10th birthday. I really didn’t want to do that. OTOH, I’m not sure what to get her.)
