  • REMINDER TO ALL DEVELOPERS Less = More

  • The Man Behind The Plan Have you heard about Plan B? Chances are, if you have a blog, or read them, you have. Plan B is a “blognovel”. A term, which, so far, appears to be coined by Diego Doval, the first blognovelist that Google knows of. I have been an avid reader of Plan…

  • Dave, come on. The value of a small, orange-white XML gif? Some days you just make me laugh. – andy Please don't tweak the little white-on-orange XML icon. I'm seeing variations out there. That's not cool. Its value is diluted by varying it. If you don't like it, do something completely different. But a little…

  • Individuality – Always remember that you are unique – just like everybody else. The new 2003 Demotivators collection is in. Get them while they're hot!

  • I'm Off to the Con … Blogging Resumes Promptly At Some Point on Saturday !!!. I'm Off to the Con … Blogging Resumes Promptly At Some Point on Saturday !!! Well I'm off to see the wizard … Wait.  Wrong movie.  I'm off to the airport and thence to PHP-CON.  I'll be back on Saturday…

I opted for two keyboard/mouse combinations, mainly due to the slightly different key controls and a missing feature in the OmniView KVM. Upon setup, I noticed that you cannot…

  • Theme ChangesI have concluded that the world just isn't as CSS friendly as I'd likethem to be. My experiment with Brian Bell's MT-style themes wasn't a goodone. On my Windows XP box, the calendar was at the bottom and theblogroll area was invisible. On Linux, the output was jumbled togetherinto one big mass of text.…

  • New Theme I'm experimenting with some new themes for my Radio pages. The old theme just took too long to load. I like this new theme because the use of CSS greatly reduces the load time. It renders a bit odd in Chimera, but I'll get it figured out. I really like the MT themes…

  • Chimera I have been hearing about Chimera for some time now and thought I'd give it a try. I'm VERY impressed. It has everything I love about Mozilla (tabbed browsing, Command+E for View Source, true display of tables and complex layouts, easy to manage bookmarks, and true access to Radio) and none of the painfully…
