- Future of Web Software?
- Joel Spolsky gives a fascinating analogy about where web software may be going by looking at the history of other software.
- WoW Reputation Calculator
- This is a very slick calculator that will let you know what you can do (and how long it'll take) to raise your character reputation with various factions.
- Slaughter the World
- It's a "music video" staring my favorite warlock Richard, from the Looking For Group webcomic. Most definitely worth a watch. Or two.
- Farewell, Old Site
- Seeing as how the site was redesigned, I figured it might be good to be able to compare the new version to the old. So, here’s a quick screenshot of the front page of the previous design. Yeah, that old design was really getting pretty... full entry
- CCDO… Back From the Dead
- Well, I suppose it had to happen sometime. I’ve been absolutely horrible posting to the site the last year or so. For the last several years (wow, this sounds kind of pathetic now) I’ve started work on at least half a dozen site redesigns, with... full entry
- Homeless World Cup
- Footballers (er, that'd be "soccer players") who happen to be homeless, playing in leagues and competing in the organized Homeless Wold Cup around the world. Definitely a good cause.
- WowJutsu
- New Warcraft guild ranking site based on drops used by players. My own guild Light Brigade is doing pretty well on our realm.
- Blueprint CSS Framework
- Frameworks seem to be all the rage these days. Blueprint is one for CSS layouts that looks pretty good: customizable grid, default typography, a "reset" for default styling, and more.
- Declutter Your Desk
- If you’re anything at all like me, you probably have a tangle of wires behind/below your desk and a bunch of gadgets strewn on top of it. In the past I’ve occasionally seen a few things hinting at ways you can help clean up all... full entry
- Better HTML Forms
- Unfortunately, I can’t actually recall where I came across this since I’ve had it open and waiting to blog about for several days now. However, a post over on the Nidahas blog covers some very nice ways to make simple, accessible forms. All the CSS... full entry
- Another 24 Ways
- Last year (in fact, one year ago today; which, I guess, means I was way late last year, too) I posted about a site doing a sort of “advent calendar” for web development topics. Well, the site is back again this year and so you... full entry
- Running Multiple IE Versions
- My last post mentioned that Firefox 2 is now out, but that’s actually not the only big browser release that’s happened recently. In fact, Internet Explorer 7 is now out and available. In most web development circles, Internet Explorer is almost despised for it’s rendering... full entry
- Getting More Out of Firefox
- By now, most of you are probably aware that Firefox 2 was released recently. Firefox 2 is, of course, the latest version of the superb Firefox browser. While this version isn’t leaps and bounds better than the previous 1.5 version, it does introduce some great... full entry
- Web Dev Cheat Sheets
- Paul linked to a post containing a ton of great cheat sheets over on his reedmaniac.com blog. The cheat sheets cover everything from ASP and Ajax to HTML and MySQL. If you do any sort of web development, you’re pretty much guaranteed to find something... full entry
- Rogue Fire Resist Gear
- Yet another post about World of Warcraft; feel free to pass on by now if you don’t care at all. As the class lead for the rogues in my guild, one of my jobs is to make sure that everyone has the necessary fire resist... full entry
- WoW Burning Crusade Info
- This post is really mostly just a place for me to post links to info I find interesting (and want to keep track of) regarding the upcoming World of Warcraft expansion: The Burning Crusade. You may find this useful or you may not care in... full entry
- Olbermann on Bush
- Keith Olbermann, host of the show Countdown with Keith Olbermann on MSNBC, concluded his September 25th program with an eye-opening speech. In it, he basically takes President Bush (and his administration/apparatus) to task for the lies, deceptions, blame shifting, and more that have been going... full entry
- Your Personal Radio Station
- Let’s assume you use iTunes to play and manage your digital music collection because, well, why wouldn’t you? So, since you’re using iTunes you can use all of its cool features like Smart Playlists. A post over at CodePoetry (yes, it’s a rather old post;... full entry
- Is Unbox Undesirable?
- Over at Boing Boing, Cory Doctorow has a nice post that disects some of the legalese used in the Terms of Service for Amazon’s new “Unbox” service that (supposedly) lets you buy or rent movies digitally. Section 5: From time to time, Amazon will automatically... full entry
- Blackwing Lair Rogue Strategy Guide
- Since I just spent way too much time writing up this strategy guide for the rogues in my guild (Light Brigade on the Shadow Council realm), I figured I might as well share it. If you don’t play World of Warcraft then you likely won’t... full entry
